I can't seem to get shadows to show despite using the reflect colour to activate the sun. The Shadows are activated in sketchup and TexSun options. Am I missing something?
Hi there, Great tutorial. I'm using a HDRI scene of a road. The only way to have any shadows in my rendered image is to put my object on a plane or box or something. I tried to apply transparent material to it but it does not receive any shadows. Can you tell me if there is a way to have shadows visible on a whole HDRI scene (eg, road)?
Hi . Used the same technique in an semi-interior room with a window . Got the shadow produced by the Environment/Reflect Color on the left ( that’s ok ) but used a parquet floor with Fresnel reflecting the Hdri BG ( on le right ) and I don’t want that .
How I can get like my parquet reflect the “Environment/Reflect Color Sky” ? .
Btw it’s very hard to get the Reflect color Sky and le GI at the same position .
Another question, how did you achieve the caustics in this scene? Your water has a bump map, and i thought you couldn't use caustics with bump maps? The only way i thought you could do it is by modelling the geometry of the water, but you've done it somehow, can you please explain? Thanks.
Also, how many caustic subdivisions + photon emit distance value? thanks
@iamcapitandot I use displacement, the displacement deform the geometry so you could have caustics with it. But in this video I don't have caustics enable. It is just the tile texture for the pool.
We have a option in the material (option area) called "Affected by Override Material". Disable this option and you will not override that particular material.
Can you tell me where you find that 3D tree and the name so I can either download or buy it? Thanks fernando. Also is possible to do a caustic in the pool with the settings that you perform in the video? I try myself the effects of caustics in the pool and I am I have no good results.
@lucas03252005 I share the tree in our forum on ASGVIS web page. I don't now if you could post link here. So go to our forum and search for "Where I can fins a tree like that?" to find the tree.
Yes, you could get caustic on the water using the sun. Send me an email with the scene and I will look at it.
I have the same question If you can share the model here or in to the ASGVIS, I have the same materials as you upload but with the model we can get the same effect. I notice also that you can't do caustics in the pool so we have a different method for that. Thanks and great work.
@lucas03252005 Unfortunately I can't share the model. The model was made by one of my favorite artist (Ronen Bekerman) and if you want the model you should look on his blogs.
looks wonderful. but how can i make or find two hdri image; one is sharper one is smoother like u used there?

The main point in this tutorial starts at 8:20
which is:
1- activating the sun system in Reflect Color (to keep GI and BG color working with HDRI).
2- uncheck the Reflect Color box... kind of bug but seems to work.
3- done and render

Nice one! Very cool to see my model in action ;)
You can all get the SketchUP file and a 3dsmax file on my blog

Hi, thanks great tutorial but I have a question, how to exclude glass from overriding

I loking in to the trees that are in the final render in the right side, there are Images or 3d trees (the green trees). Thanks fernando.

@lucas03252005 The tree is a 3D tree. It is only one tree that I copied, scaled and rotated to have some variation.

I have another question, what trees he used where I can buy this I look in to formfonts and xfrog any Idea?...

I've also just noticed you have a night shot render in your pc, did you use the same hdri+sun for it with lower multipliers?
iamcapitandot 1 year ago
@iamcapitandot yes, I use the same HDRI, I just changed three setting to have a night shot

Great video Fernando, thank you.
Could you forward me the model to play around with please? I know you posted the materials, but i'd like to see how they are mapped, etc.
Thanks in advance :) captaincapitano|at|gmail |dot| com
