Note: Written using Windows XP

To use raytraced shadows:

  1. Add objects to desired scene.
  2. Add a lamp and adjust settings.
  3. In the Shadow and Spot Pannel, select turn on Ray Shadows (turn off Buf. Shadow), adjust samples and soft.
  4. Go to the Render window, turn on Shadow, Ray, (Radio if using Radiosity during rendering) and render the scene.

To use raytraced reflections:

  1. Select object.
  2. In the Shaders panel adjust the RayMir and Depth settings.
  3. If lights are in place or a Radiosity scene is set up, go to the render panel and render the scene.

Sorry. I updated the initial post. It wasn’t clear who built it, and I really didn’t look at the url when I posted it. My apologies.

Thanks for your hard work.

hmm, no one checks my links no more :slight_smile: ?

12

Why would we do that? :wink:

Sorry. Actually I usually do. But it was for a Linux Build. I don’t have Linux on my PC.

The original post I took the link from read:

I made an honest mistake. I corrected it in the first post.

Corrected. I was just trying to be helpful. I make mistakes. My only intention was to post a clearly labled thread with the links to the builds.

Besides this isn’t about me, its about the hard work of the developers.
Thanks to everyone involved.

Wow, this is great, i mean…is there any word that can describe this feeling?
i have just tested, and that little cube reflects the other one :smiley: perfect, what else can i say?
Congratulations to coders.

Where’s Ton?! I need to give him a great big hug! :smiley:

Sorry… didnt mean to give you a bad time :expressionless:

Thanks for saying so. No offense taken! I’m a peaceful guy.

it is funny…

new posts and new links…and people thinks “old” threads are dead…and no one thinks my binaries and compiles is updated? I do it several times each week :slight_smile:

maybe it is because my thread is “sticky” ? %|
