Well, the phong material used to assume an external IOR of 1, which meant that e.g. an object with a phong material inside a glass of water (IOR 1.33) would be slightly shinier than it should have been.
Yes, I have a new logo.

Thanks Nik! The new glossy transparent code looks WAY better! Awesome work! (Gotta luv those releases where there's no XML changes..
)
....are you sure the watermark option works when changing it in the inifile? It doesn't seem to be working for me.

Aha! Thanks jurasek!
A quick comparison of the new version with the old. Same material settings. This is the SkIndigo frosted glass preset. Looks SO much better!
EDIT: added normal Specular glass for additional comparison.

Awesome!
It's great we'll won't have to add Indigo logos manually to our renders (to promote the engine) anymore (not that I ever did - but I will now
)
Can't wait to try the new glossy material out!
Thanks Ono!

great - I just took my Humanoid model with SSS skin to over 2000+ samples already in test 7
Ono - does that path weight fix alters the render of lights/caustics behind glass etc?

I'll post some skin results soon with some settings.
Yeah, hopefully it should fix those issues you were seeing.
