I have been struggling to figure out what I did wrong with my rendering, I have the cycles modifier on and even went back and watched your outputting animation video. This is what I keep ending up with, any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
Hey ggthayer8 , I assume your trying to render a longer animation with more bounces, increase the number of frames from 24 to maybe 96. Blender will only render the lighter area of the timeline, even if there is action outside this area.
