Diffraction below 1,000

below 1 diffraction can be controlled to all decimals.. like 1,001

however values below 1 are not possible.

i am currently dealing with a scene including .ies/.ldt files, and the glare they produce even at diffraction 1 is very intense.

lowering the multilight intensity helps, but the rendering will get too dark.

it'd be great to control the effect completly!

thnx,

Daniel

only a workaround, not a solution:
you could save one out without refraction and one with refraction and then combine in ps?

yep! for now that's a way... blending luminosity should work quite well.

cheers,

It happened to me too that diffraction=1 looked too strong.

Where is the diffraction setting?

Ohhhhh... the Simulens setting... :oops: hehe I was thinking material editor for some reason. Carry on.
