pre-23: reflections from emitters

[rman1974]

Where is reflections from emitters? Or I should wait long enough and those fireflies will become reflections?

Maybe save and reload the scene solve the issue?

after 46 min still no sign of reflections. BTW normals on emitter mesh is OK - I cheked it (I have a good habit keep backface cull ON, coz I hate flipped normals and some renders hate them too)

Reload doesn't solve the problem. I opened scene on two computers with same result. If someone wants this scene - I attached it.

Same my post in here. No reflection though.

I wonder why your gtx285 only got 0.85MP/s. I think shall be faster.

I had to reverse the normals(pointing inward) befor export,may be a bug in FormZ?

Hi. Here is my test , some materials are tweaked to more glossy surface, and I played with glass material and intensity of the emitter. I forgot to save the scene though...

If I have understood well, reflections as well as light passing through glass material should be allowed by the upcoming MLT.

I don't think it is worth wasting time with this trouble, because it is not yet implemented

Yes, and thats why I tweaked the scene to get the desire effect even with current limitations...

The result is rather nice !
