Awesome, thanks for the explanation. I feel epic's documentation on these nodes can be difficult to understand sometimes, glad you took the pains to explain so many of them!
Thank you for the tutorial. I am currently working on the ocean using fresnel, i was wondering if there is a way to set it up so it is double sided, so when you go underwater you can see that water from underneath, to make it feel like you are underwater when you look up, lets say when you are snorkeling.
So that Fresnel rim light can be applied to shiny materials, because it occurs in real life, right? It's not just limited to water and glass, right? viscorbel.com/wp-content/uploads/The-basics_html_m20eff08a.jpg
Correct. One of the recent live streams from Zak showing how to make a puzzle game showed him using fresnel to give the puzzle pieces a highlight using Fresnel.
+mikemikehate When you are working on a Material you have a few different Blend Modes you can access in the Material Properties. Click on the Output node or anywhere in the blank background of the Event Graph and in your details panel you can change the Material->Blend Mode to Translucent. This will unlock the Opacity Node along with a few others that are part of the Translucent Blend Mode.

Don't stop doing these videos, keep it on!

Great stuff. So my question is, how do you now add the reflection to that grazing angle in the fresnel? Or is that automatic?

Exponent should be at 1.45 for photorealistic results
And BaseReflectFraction should be at 0.05
Thanks for the tips =)
are these values used for all physically based materials, or do they depend on the type of material(stone, wood, glass, metal, etc.)???
Is it true that this node can't be used with an orthographic camera? Is there a way to replicate this type of feature in ortho?
That 'pronunciacion' of "fresnel" is "plus chiq" =3..
Cool
how to reverse fresnel?
1 - fresnel should be worth a try
