Re: Relative Refraction vs. Absolute Retraction Index

Your way (overlapping volumes) works well :) . This will also save me time on model setup (mostly from CAD). Thank you. How do you recommend treating the material for a bubble in the liquid? Adding a sphere with a glass material and a IOR of 1? Looks that way. Would that be physically accurate? Let ...

Relative Refraction vs. Absolute Retraction Index

I often render liquids inside glass and model the interface surfaces accurately to get a very realistic effect. This means the outer glass surface which has a air > glass interface gets IOR ±1.5 ... and the liquid > air interface ±1.333 ... but the internal glass > liquid interface is a ratio of gla...
