1st bounce

2nd bounce


What VrayfortrueSpace version has it correct, 1.0 or 1.53?


When I watch chapter 4 http://www.caligari.com/products/trueSpace/ts5/Courses/VRay/04-gi-bounces.jpg of the Vray course (http://www.caligari.com/products/trueSpace/ts5/Courses/newvray.asp?Cate=Training&SubCate=Master) and follow along, I can only get the results in the video if I switch 1st and 2nd bounce parameters.

If I recall correctly these were backwards in the 1.0 panel.

1st bounce should be the intensity of the light striking objects in the scene, 2nd bounce is the intensity of light reflected off objects onto other objects. So should be relatively easy to determine which one is doing which. ;)

Yes. I did try to figure it out but it was very confusing when watching the training video.
