Hi,
I just saw that with 4.30 symetrized geometry ( specular material ) have a refraction problem. Higher is the Index of refraction more visible is the problem.
Glass have thickness. with IR = 2.0

Hope that can be solved quickly.


EDIT :
After some research,s the problem occur if :
- the object is not movable proxy
- specular have smooth unchecked

Hi HHbomb,
have you tried to flip the normals?

Hi, thanks for reply. But as it is instances I can't flip normals.

Ok, ..
So I can't symetrize instanced objects in Octane render ?

Hi HHbomb,
This issue seems to be solved by making it movable proxy. I'm investigating to find out about this.
I'll let you know as soon as I will understand.
