Default Re: interior swimming pool, caustics problem

i guess i could use direct lights but i want to be able to use the daylight system with sky portals. it must be possible???


the weid thing is, if i use the same setup but on an exterior (basically same but without sky portals or walls and ceiling) the caustics work, like on an exterior pool.

i'l update the text animation post with some images, but will need to draw some sketches and scan them in.

with regards to the text animation. if you imagine a cardboard box being unfolded so that it lies flat on the floor, i want to be able to animate it folding back up again. the only problem is i don't want to do it with a box, i want to be able to do it with text.

i've attached an image using a box as an example. eventually i want the text to look like each letter is made from cardboard,and has been put together like a cardboard box as shown in the example image.
