I'm doing some experimenting with including transparent objects in the GI. Maybe I can share the code at some point. But its not on the surfel+restir branch
from kajiya.
What is this "transparency" thing you speak of? It doesn't look like anything to me
cough
I'm afraid transparency will have to wait. It is notoriously difficult, and would touch just about every aspect of the renderer. Unless it's purely additive, even the most minimal version would require some sorting or an order-independent solution (because most scenes are not as well-behaved as yours), and probably some hooks into TAA so that it doesn't produce horrible amounts of ghosting.
And that's just for unlit stuff. It would likely need reflections -- that means ray-tracing from transparent surfaces. Mirror reflections might be okay (although expensive), while rough ones would be noisy since reflection denoising works on the g-buffer. Then transparent stuff needs to interact with reflection and diffuse global illumination rays (the voxel grid is only part of the fun; there's also screen rays that need to hit transparent surfaces). Those might need to trace additional rays towards lights too.
... and even this is still non-physical land; then one needs refractions and colored transmission too... Oh and there's issues with post-processing, e.g. motion blur and depth of field.
Yup, there are simple paths one can take first, but judging by your screenshot, you'd probably want at least reflections and tinted transmission

Thanks for taking the time to reply - I figured it was a long shot, but thought I would ask anyway in case it was in the roadmap and I got a suggestion of a branch to try.
I might be able to hack some solutions just for myself, with some effort.
The engine as it stands is already very impressive in both speed and quality - in our use case (besides transparency) it is beating UE5 Lumen.

Give me a shout if you run into some trouble or need something clarified -- either here or on Discord!

Oh wow, that's... unexpected

gltf crate now supports KHR_materials_volume extension.
I hope one day kajiya will support translucent objects!
