      Hello:

      I try the settings that I read in the web in some tutorial but I have no luck what so ever in the final render. I learn Caustic now but I want the same results as the render final I will ad later caustic. I just want to see the same bumps that I missing. Also the color is not right for some reason. VR 1.48.89 Sketchup 8 Pro, Windows 7 - 64.

      I post the model and some samples for help.

      Water render final (I try to get this effect)

      How I can ad bump map for ripples where I can find a map for ripples?

      I hope you can help me with the settings Thomthom...Thanks.

          Ah, you wanted caustics. Did you do that with just the V-Ray sun? OR did you use a different light source?

            I use Vray sun, It take me 6 hours to learn the caustic and put so many options that I am proud of the results. After I make the same results that I wanted and the begin of my question, I move in to the caustic so I can more realistic view of the pool. Now I can do the pool and the sea...Great work, but allot of learn...

            Thank you ThomThom for always great help!. πŸ‘

              I think you did most of it - I've never really used Caustics much. I'd probably have to ask you about it.

                        yeh - that's great - found it after looking for a while. Think i dled the model from the ASGVIS site to follow along but that went down:( wonder if Chaos Group is going to fix the forum and all the materials and tutorial links 😞 would have dled a lot more had i known:(
