      Cool challenge.

      Creating the perfect smooth glass model with liquid is one thing, making the right glass and liquid texture with the right reflection and refraction levels is another, getting them both right will give the above results but try going one step further.... caustics, as a glass with liquid in will not only cast a shadow but also caustics.

      I look forward to seeing what the guru's achieve, why not open this up to other render solutions too? on condition the best vray solution gets shared.

        I'd be up for giving this a go in indigo, if you dont mind the semi hijack of your thread, of course.

          I haven't tried this stuff. But I remember seeing a thread about it on the ASGVis forum. Don't have the link atm.
          But I think one importaint clue was that the liquid has to be slightly offset from the glass surface. They can't be in the exact same plane.

            nope i don't mind one bit remus, it will be good to see what other render software can do to.

                  I created a new thread here : http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=18400

                  I did it in the gallery so that all interested parties can find it easily and the participation would be greater, this thread can be used for the technicality of creating glass with vray as intended.

                              Very nice 21D.
                              For the glass material you should uncheck the "Reflect on Backside". Also increase the "max depth" to 5 (the default is 2) under Global Switches. Oh and lift the glasses just a bit, even 1 mm is enough.

                              Your scene setup is very good btw. 👍

                                    I'm gonna try those tweaks asap.... I'll post my result in the GALLERY topic,
                                    oh that is also the reason for my late reply, because i thought everyone moved to the topic in the gallery section.

                                    but see ya guys later.

                                    and thnx again for all your comments and tips.
