Thank you for this tutorial!

[@philipkriegel]

You're welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed it :D

[@aonartofnafiz]

Thank you so much. It really helped when I put some glass tube arrays in a transparent box and all the glass tubes looked too dark. This solved the issue with some tweakings.

[@philipkriegel]

I'm glad it helped!

[@7un6r0]

Thanks the demo! Still a little bit confused about what the node of Great Than does here. Could u explain more specificaly?

[@kaleknelson8429]

I'm having a similar problem with an effect I'm trying to create. To do this effect I need two models to overlap, however when doing so I get this darx spot issue even when one of the models is completely transparent. Does anyone know how I could fix this?

Smart

[@unggoysolid4363]

hello, how do you make those material with chromatic aberration??

[@philipkriegel]

Hey! I have a video on that topic, here it is: th-cam.com/video/_PvwU1qMk3c/w-d-xo.html

[@digiglow.animator]

hello philips, I am facing this similar issue in c4d and octane. can you recommend the solution please..
waiting for your reply

[@philipkriegel]

I sadly don't have any experience with both octane and cinema 4D. I would guess there's also light paths in octane, maybe they are just called a different name. Sorry but I can't give you a specific answer :/

[@shura8817]

do you use an environment texture?

[@philipkriegel]

Yes I do, for all of my renders and tutorials

[@shura8817]

@@philipkriegel I ask because you can have black areas from the environment. Why do you want remove them? It's natural to have them sometimes.

[@philipkriegel]

It's not about the black spots that occur due to the background, those areas won't be eliminated by this process
Blender in itself calculates a fixed amount of light bounces, once those are done computing, and they did not find an exit path, they will be displayed as black spots (inaccuracies in your render) and by increasing the amount of bounces, you gove cycles more attempts of finding the exit path which ultimately gets rid of unwanted black spots. I hope I could clarify what the video is about, if not, feel free to ask further questions

[@shura8817]

@@philipkriegel yes ok that's more clear now about how they are unwanted. Thanks for your answer :-)

[@TheNeo773]

Hi Philip, I've send you and email in regards to a card design. Maybe you can help me out. Your videos are so awesome!

[@philipkriegel]

Hey Simon,
I just checked my mails and weren't able to find yours, are you sure, you sent it to the right address?
