Hi Tim,
The roughness will influence any transmitted specular component as well.
Your calculation of trans parameters is off because your Rd is not 40% using RGB of 25%, 70% and 25%. If you want 40% reflectance, you need to adjust the RGB to (0.181,0.508,0.181). I computed these based on the Y function in "ray/src/cal/cal/xyz_rgb.cal".
With these changes, I get:
void trans TransTreeMat
0
0
7 0.272 0.761 0.272 0 0 0.33333 0.05
Does this make sense?
