Hey Mirek

Thanks for the backup there.

Yes thers a gnomon video by a guy called Jeremy Engleman, who is a rendering dude by trade and does all this particular tute with mainly spotlights using depth map shads for tuning then switches to standard ray tracing for the finish using MR only as a standard renderer not GI or FG, just uses it like the Maya renderer, primarily for the speed and also better result at the end of the day.

the result is just astonishingly realistic........

I suggest everyone check it out

Cheers
Jay
