Prism, mirrors and torus knot - caustics with rainbow

[nuno1980]

Hello.

PMC kernel default settings except:
-256k-samples
-26-diffuse and 96-specular max depth
-10k-reject
-caustic blur 0.00
-parallelism 1

Materials:
-prism with dispersion 0.036 and ior 1.407
-torus knot ior 1.45 but without dispersion - sorry, I forget to enable dispersion
-2 mirrors (big circular tape and 1/4 of ball with the light is inside)

---> I like my image!! And you?

NOTES - sorry:
-for have OR 2.06 demo;
-for noises but the "max. sample" are only up to 256k-sample - I cannot increase samples. But newer version of OR will add unlimited (= 0) for "max. samples".

Regards.

Octane is not good for this kind of scenes.
There are better alternatives if tricky caustics is what you're after.

Yes, seems good OR. But 256k-sample is bad - you need add much more than this max samples in newer version of OR.

Everyone else is probably just speechless.

Nuno, you are coming up on four years in demo mode.... You still kicking the tires?

I use ORVR 2.23-2 (but 3-month trial) and am rendering with many pauses during 1 or 2 week(s) but 2500x2500 because higher resolution screen = better caustics despite same number of sample/px.
