Fresnel Reflection Description

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.
