With the release of XL Version 7 comes a powerful new set of features to create more realistic imagery. Among these new features are caustics, which are formed by light being reflected or transmitted by a number of specular (shiny) surfaces before interacting with a diffuse (light scattering) surface. The light cast onto a dining table by a wine glass is one of the most common examples of caustics. This tutorial is more of a quick start guide for helping new users set up the basics to add caustic effects to their images.

You've just spent hours modeling a perfect snake and you need it to slither just a short distance. Well, you could use bones to animate it, or if you happen to have made your snake with a loft NURBS you can have each segment follow a defined spline path and offset the sequences. That all sounds like a lot of work though. Here is a very quick method of getting your snake to move with a simple, neat slither motion.

Time Curves are a powerful feature that allow you to refine all types of animation (movement, transitions, etc). In this tutorial you'll explore how to use the Path Mode in the Time Curves Window to manipulate the motion of an object. This technique can also be applied to tracks other than Position (i.e. Morphing, Textures, etc.).
