there's no presets for this, so everything has to be manual (refraction/reflection, etc) still haven't really figured the settings out :)

Hey, chrome spheres! ;-) Actually that's really cool. I see you got some cool refraction going on too. Hurry up with the tut.

Should be done today :)

I've been thinking about this, Brother and Sisters, and the real reason I've been lead down the dark path is because of Draculaz! It's all his fault. Phil (Lead us not into temptation, Drac knows the way.)

Checkerboards or Water. Unless you can come up with something original and truly artistic with chrome spheres and checkerboards (like Englewolf).

Very cool! You're getting a real handle on rendering in Yafray. Lord help me, I just had a perverse thought! What if you imported several Bryce terrains into Wings(with materials) and rendered a simple landscape with Yafray? I don't suppose Wings could handle the poly count, but you gotta admit it's a whimsical ideer. I also blame my addiction to Wings on Draculaz, and I must admit this forbidden fruit looks very tempting too,lol.

Perhaps fresnel reflections would work better for glass? The reflections are beautiful, but do nothing to indicate the material of the object. Can Yafray do fresnel/falloff reflections?

very good point maxxxmodelz, was just thinking that myself. I think it should be added in the transparency channel.

Aye, not to rain on your parade, Drac... You could have done that scene better in Bryce. I'm not impressed by YafRay's shadows, one bit. I'm gonna have to go with Robert J on this one.
