Hi Rico, I also asked. I think that we'll have to wait for MLT to get light passing through glass, but I'm not sure. Also in my last tests, currently light doesn't reflect in mirrors.

I tried to build a projector like in real world, with an emitting bulb a reflector and a front glass : no beam casted. Light is stopped by the borders of the reflector, but doesn't reflect. I took care of the normals, emitted on the reflective side.

Nice kitchen !

Maybe it was an early MLT testing thing? The one that's still under development and that's why we don't have it yet, so let's wait for it to finish ;)
