Re: Opaque window
By "opaque", do you mean the glass should let some light go through, but without being able to distinguish objects being the glass? Not sure it's really possible in Sweet Home 3D, but you can try with some glass textures on some transparent material, like in this video at 3'05".

Yes, exactly !

I did many tries without success. sad

An idea : I read this morning a fetaure of enko on light about a vertical surface... wink

Re: Opaque window
Hello, if I understand correctly you want to adjust the transparency of an object
I'm going to change the mtl property of the obj file
is this what you're interested in?

Hi Golia,

It was a good idea but no ! crying

I explain :
I did that you said with the mtl file (d 0.975 ).

Directly under sh3d, Yes with a outside screenshot ! applause

Look at the left side...
---------------------------
But in standard rendering...

Outside and without light, opaque propertie has disappeared.
---------------------------

Outside and With light, no difference.
---------------------------

Inside without light, no difference !
---------------------------

Inside with light, same result !

Thank you for your idea but it's not positive... wink
