Title: Phoenix Particle points wont render Caustics, Bubbles mode Do
Post by: MetricaVisuals on 2024-08-14, 16:58:44

Hi, i think i found a bug regarding caustics and phoenix
I have a jacuzzi phoenix sim, i i use the point mode the caustics will not show, if i change the mode to bubbles it will show the caustics, the problem with it is the extended render time that the bubbles bring to the scene..
Im using max 2024.2.4 and corona 11.2

Looks like a bug, successfully reproduced and logged as (Report ID=CMAX-1241).
It seems that selecting the particle shader object and disabling "cast shadows" in its object properties fixed it (right click > object properties > cast shadows).

This is now fixed internally. The fix will be available in the next daily build and the final Corona 13 release.
