Hi
Please check bellow scene
If I dont have all paths enabled in mantra I see objects under glass black?
I tried mantra glass and my own mantra surface setup as glass
Render is ok with all paths but render times are very long
What is the best strategy for something under glass, water etc.
I dont need caustics so all paths is not necessary for me but it is the only way I see through glass
I had same problem when rendering eyes with cornea over?

One thing I cant figure is if i press + to see viewport subdiv on how do I keep control cage visible to pick and edit components?

UV flatten does island attribute but how do i get to borders?

hi
here is a render of mine
https://vimeo.com/69748935 [vimeo.com]
and here is a scene
http://forums.odforce.net/topic/17960-pbr-render-test/ [forums.odforce.net]
check the mantra settings
i think in my experience for full HD frame and decent sampling it is very hard to get bellow 30min per frame
on my dual xenon 72gb ram machine
hope this helps
