What does it look like with no short paths to the light? If you make two of the "bar walls" into solid walls, do the dark corridors behind them benefit from the reservoirs?
I'm wondering if the reservoirs appear to be ineffective here simply because uniform sampling also finds a light too easily.

Curious to see it adapt to changes in lighting and changing voxels. Is that in your planned features?

Super nice project (:
How do you create the different scenes? Are they procedural, hardcoded, hand built in an editor or converted? And what voxel grid sizes do you support?

Yes, I have plenty of ideas on how to progress, but I've had to take a break from screens for a few weeks so it will be a while before I get back to it properly.

Great rainbow effect! It worked really well. 😀
You made it look deceptively easy to achieve, but my own attempt wasn't nearly as successful. 😬
Awesome job.

I am not related to the project so I'm not in a better position than you to approve it (:

It's so close to perfect!

Amazing! I tried it and it works great in my early tests!
Here's a model that it struggles to clean up: On the pico-mac-nano GitHub page, in 3D_model, pmn_rear_3_3.stl. It's the back of a Mac Plus case and the normals in the vents are inverted. Applying the magic flip fixes most but not all of them

Isn't hunger progressing backwards?

Yeah, it wasn't for fun - but this isn't really the forum to discuss my medical history...
I did get some good data out of it, so there's still some fun in it (:

Just png. All b&w individual images, very easy to parse (but a pain to download due to obfuscated scripts on the site).
The trick is finding a good way to display the dense volume. Still looking for good options.

So. I'm really worried that you are absolutely right...
I can't get the inside of the rainbow to look right and there is a strong chance that it is because it is the effect of interference.
Without constructive and destructive interference, I can get some of it but not the full rainbow effect...

This is super cool!
I tried SDF displacement on triangle geometry recently. Looks like this would be a huge improvement on it.

1/15) 🧵 Breaking down a quick experiment: Simple but slow displacement for ray-traced triangles
#MetalRT #rendering
Top-left: Typical path-tracer with a simple triangle-based model.
Other three: Same model input, with increasing displacement added while tracing the rays.
