Its a good test, but there is definitely room to optimize. A day per frame is not ideal for such a basic scene. You should ask Bepeg4d on the forums here for some advice! This is his early caustic render test:

The water hasn't any fog. - Correct! But the sea has a bit fog. loologuzbir wrote:Just messing with you.
I said not a bad test.
But to be fair it's incorrect.. You have to add volume to the pool itself to make it realistic. Pool wave scale is way off. Your pool's scale looks like a shoe box(in scale).
Think of the real life wave scales Add wider lens, wider image aspect, volume with scatter and color absorb. add textures.
Compare it with real life photos.
And its also very sad see you spend 25 hours to render a noise free caustics. That is on Octane of course not you.
Try selling this to shutterstock like sites. I'm sure there will be people will buy but its not ethical cause you're running a free copy of the software.

This film has caustic blur and no dispersion. OR will have new kernel as progressive photon mapping (ppm) to much fast render.dotcommer wrote:Its a good test, but there is definitely room to optimize.

Thanks dotcommer for linking my video, but, me and nuno we have already had a PM discussion about caustics but he dislike my pragmatic approach 
Anyway nuno, big improvement in your renders now with OctaneVR, keep up your research
ciao beppe
