hi, i try to make a plastic that has scattering when a lightsource is put
into it (for example in a plastic sphere).
now i tried and tried so many things, but all i get a clear plastic sphere.
can anyone point me my mistake?
this is the code of my plastic media:

#declare Plastic=
material{
   texture{
      pigment{ rgbt 1 }
      finish{
         reflection .2
         diffuse .5
         conserve_energy
      }
   }
   interior{
      media{
         method 3
         scattering {
            1, rgb <0,0,1>
            extinction 1
            }
         intervals 2
         samples 10
      }
      ior 1.7
      fade_power 2
      fade_distance 10
      fade_color rgb .5
   }
}

Yes, (I develop Tim's answer ;-) if you have a media not showing as it
should, 1st thing you have to ask yourself is "did I put hollow keyword in
my object?"
