Colour penetration thru glass panel

Anonymous
Not applicable
I believe there is a way to show colours lights penetrates from coloured glass panel and I am certain that I saw it from one of the V18 demo video.

Question, Do we require an artificial light behind the glass panels to have this affect? Can we achieve the scene from natural sun light?

I have not played with this much myself but I do remember this post if it helps any.

Thx for the link Barry.

I sort of knew it was possible by using the lights but I was hoping to achieve the scene from the natural light(heliostat). having too many lights would increase the exposer the image thus photoshop-ing would be a way to resolve this issue for now. not sure if any other render support this though...
