Hi,
Did anybody of you ever try to build a glass prism with a light beam going through it that is getting broken and splitted up into various colors?
I am at the beginning, and of course am already facing a problem, where I hope I can get your advises here.
The prism is supposed to be glassy, so transparent. I know how to get that. But then a light stream is supposed to go through it, getting fussy when going through the glass.
The weird thing here is that the penetrating light stream only gets visible when Z-Transparency is used. When switched to Raytracing, the penetrating part of the light gets lost.
Here the to renders:

Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong here?
The next step would be:
- breaking the light stream (IOR ?)
- splitting the light stream into different colours (???)
Thanks in advance!
