Topic: Caustics: Unlocking the power

*Message edited for clarity*
Does someone know how to make caustics work? I've been trying but I must use a very high intensity (multiplier). Can someone help me understand how the settings work?
Follow-ups
A: The key to it (if you are using a regular light not a vray light) is to have an Inverse Square decay on it, with a value of 1 unit on the decay. Then to "turn up" the light, you need to increase the multiplier. I find that (depending on the size of the scene) you need to turn it up anywhere from 500 to 30,000 or more.
