Hello I'm new to Indigo and I wanted to ask how I could render fake water using caustics in Cindigo? The entire scene comes out ok but becomes black in the water part.

Please help.

Make the water a cube, with only the top face intersecting the pool walls.

Add bump mapping to the material with a gain (B) around 0.015m.
