Title: Back-lit transparent objects on Colored backgrounds
Post by: New-Viz on August 26, 2020, 09:02:13 AM
Hi everyone,

Just started using Keyshot and am still finding my way around. On my most recent project I noticed that if I set my object (a whiskey bottle) on a colored surface set to white, it no longer showed my HDR lightmaps interaction within the bottles refractions. The backlighting creates a warm glow in the bottle and has to be maintained for the final render. The HDR is still visible on all reflections on the outer surface of the model but is there a setting or adjustment needed for the HDR to maintain its effect on the refractions/bottle interior?
