Hi, after having read and seen about C5, I am seriously considering to upgrade. I mean seriously. There are, anyway, some things that are very important for me, on which I would like to have some enlightening from those who are using the beta version (or even better, made it): 1- Is translucency in materials supported in C5? I know subsurface scattering is, which some consider to be the same thing - I am not technical enough to know if this difference/identity is true or not, BUT, what I am really interested, for professional reason, is the typical translucency that you have with very thin materials, such as a leaf, or a curtain - much thinner than marble or wax. 2- Would any of you C5 beta users be so kind to render a tree for me, with translucency applied to the leaf material, so that the thinner part of the leaf becomes lightened by the sun. I need a very simple backlighted scene, with a tree, a sky, and sun in front or camera (or anyway hitting the leaves so that translucency can be visible. Don't be afraid - push the effect hard - I want to see what happens. If you don't have a suitable tree model, you can download this free sample: http://www.xfrog.com/samples/BL02_Betula_lenta_Sweet_Birch_OBJ.zip or http://www.xfrog.com/samples/BL02_Betula_lenta_Sweet_Birch_3DS.zip It is a very important test for me - if I see good enough results in this, I am sold on C5. And - I would like to see as much C5 beta renders as possible, particularly with HDRI. Is there a C5 beta gallery somewhere to look at? Thank you VERY much to the kind who will want to help.
