As you might be able to guess from this video, Mo isn't the biggest fan of Photon Mapping, but in order to get caustics in Redshift, he has to work through it.

Have you talked to anyone in the Redshift forums / dev community to see if improved caustics are on the roadmap?

I haven't talked to anyone personally but there are hints in Redshift's 3.0 release notes which point to another caustics algorithm coming some time in the future. Cheers, Mo

10 min of lookdev tweaking in redshift, hahaha. that would be like... half a day in mantra!

How do caustics in V-ray, Arnold and Octane compare to RS? Also wondering which render engine currently has best/more modern implementation of caustics?
