Description - Fresnel Reflection
Fresnel Reflection Plugin is an easy to use plugin that can help you Create realistic images. Fresnel reflection looks good, and it`s important for visual realism, especially with materials like glass. The advantage over cubemaps is that you can precompute isotropic reflectance from a particular direction (you can do much better materials than cubemaps), but spheremaps aren`t view-Independent like cubemaps.For this filter, the idea is that you put the image representing a specular spheremap on a layer, run the filter, and bLend it over the Diffuse map. Or you can do weirder things -- this just gives the raw coefficients in a form that they`re usable in an ALPHA channel, so artists can make magic in Photoshop. It`s best to start with an opaque layer, and let the plugin add the transparency.
