Yafray nooby Q

Can anyone tell me how to make the “colored shadows” ? I had photon lamp and color glass and nothing happend :frowning: (i was trying every material settings as possible)

I imagine something like this. ->

i think u mean caustics… for caustics u need:

  • an emitter plane (simply a plane with an texture emit value something about 0.8 -1 )
  • yafray fired on
  • some nice glas

experiment with it :slight_smile:

photon lamps are made for dispersion mapping simulation
(im testing with it in the moment ) that shadows in ur pic hav
nothing to do with photon lamps (or am I wrong?!)
