Is bump mapping not supposed to work with glossy translucent material? Seems the moment I plugin bump map to glossy translucent the shader looses translucency

Re: glossy translucent and bump
I confirm lacilaci's finding, that Glossy Translucent doesn't work together with bump maps.
It works with the June 26 version of LuxCore, but does not with the Aug 8 version.
Matte Translucent is equally affected.
It can be reproduced with example scene Procedural Leaves:

Re: glossy translucent and bump
Do you have a simpler test scene ? Something with a plane and a simple bump map image.
I'm looking into the linked scene but it is a complex material setup, if I replace glossy translucent with just matte, I still get an odd result:
The black leaf looks like something with flipped normals. I need a simpler set up.

Re: glossy translucent and bump
I'll make a small example scene tomorrow..
Re: glossy translucent and bump
Why this ain't OK
test scene "ProcedurelLeaves"
test scene "ProcedurelLeaves"
Re: glossy translucent and bump
The three leaves share the same mesh data and the "black" one is scaled -1 on one axis to produce more variability.
You could just delete that one.
(I'm away from my computer at the moment, but will be back soon, and make a simple scene if still needed.)
Re: glossy translucent and bump
This may be a big hint on where is the problem (-1 scale) but it would be a lot easier to investigate with a simpler scene.
Re: glossy translucent and bump
Here is a simple test scene.

Re: glossy translucent and bump
Oh, I see - Bump output "kills" Translucency
Re: glossy translucent and bump
I get this rendering with glossy translucent:
and this with matte:
where is the problem in glossy translucent ?
