The Simple Setup Here we have a simple setup. A diffuse texture and low roughness. It may be what beginners choose for their first renders. The problem with this setup is that the reflections we get (white dots) appear in the wrong place. In isolation the eyes look fine, but when the face cover part of the eyes, it tends to cover the white dots. Many render artists wrestle with the white dot problem and have strange workarounds. We are not interested in those work arounds. Let us continue with more setups. The Fake Setup The fake setup as I call it, is the traditional setup, as seen in the DOA5 games.
