Predicted AGS round cut grade score on a kicken virtual OEC?

[strmrdr]

34.5 JS/black

34.5 ASET
What I find interesting is that this one like many combos shows zones where it does from obstruction too return and back again as you change the pavilion angle.
AGS showed this with their aset maps.
It is a fascinating part of diamond performance that I have no explanation for but I see it all the time.

Here is the real downside of the shallow pavilion.. light return center sucks....

In the static view!
Now you know my next question...

When are Diamonds in static positions?

Dynamic light intensity is down also....
It simply isn''t as bright....

btw in some combos im still getting inconsistant results with the virtual IS vs ASET and JS/black in DC.
With JS/black and ASET agreeing and IS out there.

Remeber if the pavilion exit ray goes above horizontal it hits the pink.
It will be fixed in DC3.1

Can DC pro automate images with varying head shadow for a given combo? No, but you can do several runs - 1 for each head closeness / size
They would be a real eye opener with fancy cuts and also prove my point.
I am really giving too much of my design secrets away in this post. :} You will have to kill us
