Title: Caustics in metals
Post by: fa2020 on 2017-01-09, 18:46:48

Hi guys,
I recently rendered a ring modeled in Zbrush. The main material of the ring is chromatic but I couldn't get any caustics effect of the HDRI lighting over the surface. I tested Keyshot but it rendered a nice caustics. Can anybody help me? Does Corona support caustics for metallic reflections?

You will probably need to increase MSI to get visible caustics:

Also, they might not be clearly visible on a reflective surface.
