Maxwell Render | Official public forum

hello
I am trying to achieve what I get in Vray with maxwell v
underwater lights
here in Vray


here in maxwell


any suggestions?

If you remove the water from both renderers, do they render the lights the same or differently? Because it seems a matter of how focused the light emitters themselves are, not if they are underwater or not. Maybe you can use smaller emitters and enclose them in an open box so the light is more focused, or use IES:

Also it seems the water between the two doesn't have the same IOR? Both are at 1.33?
