I did say that its a WIP, I can't get the water to work yet, as transparency buggers me around.

I'm working on a background.

It took me a few seconds to spot what was wrong with the image. Your shadow isn`t refracting properly through the glass! :)

Anyway I guess you already noticed that :)

It's because the inner surface of the glass has a different texture to the outer. The inner ne does not have all the glass properties, merely filter transparency.

I am having severe problems with the water. I am building a full glass now, and make the water as a solid cylinder, with a glass texture. It's fine outside the glass, but when I put it inside it turns to a solid block of darkness. Could this be because POV cannot support more than three layers of transparancy?

I'll post images tonight to demonstrate this.

Thank you, sah!

Now then, here be the glass and the water separate. Note that they are fine.



And here is what happens when I try and put the water in the glass.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

It's probably because POVray, like most progs, treats multimaterial refraction all wrong. Set it up so that the "water" is just the top cap of the cylinder, rather than the whole thing, and see how that looks.

That, or delete the inside of the cup where it connects to the water part- that's actually the much better way of going about it (scientifically more accurate, too), just might be harder to pull off in an alg modeler like POVray. I dunno.
