In dielectric mode some weird result with reflection roughness. 

0.01 roughness makes light totaly blured. I use skylight for testing and its not possible got normal reflection from the sun.

I got this with skylight (PBR, diffuse disabled).

Also, I recommend to use Environment Light in Ray-Tracing Backround mode, not direct lighting.

can you help me out.

Hi Roman

Thanks for Physhader, it's great, esp nested shader capability.

One question, can I have a nested shader inside a nested shader?

For example I have liquid shader as the nest for air bubble shader  and then glass shader as the nest for liquid shader?

I see I get an error warning when i assign the nested liquid shader  as the material for the glass nested shader but I see something is rendering out so not sure, maybe it works?

thanks again

Nigel.

Hey @nigelgardiner.

It should work, but I'm sure that it's not necessary (at least until the bubbles are not too big or are situated at the liquid surface). The usual PhySurface material is enough, just swap IOR on bubbles material: Outside IOR = liquid IOR and Inside IOR = 1.

And nevermind that warning, it rises because the script can't find some PhySurface parameters on the nested material to link. All remained parameters can be linked manually.
