Hello everyone,
i've been having a super cool time watching Tu Wien rendering lectures on youtube,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuBjYa4Q3dA [www.youtube.com]
i've been impressed by the bidirectional path tracing computation
because i'm facing this scene lightning scenario a lot, and i'm wondering :
Is bidirectional pathtracing available in Mantra ?
If we create an indirect light will it converge like bidirectional ?
i'm not into render engines but there are caustics and photons involved with this node

… and will i got into the SDS conflict case scenario or does the PBR mantra rop protects from it ?
Thank you for your feedback
