Environment is black through double glass?

[jjobson98]

Hi,

I have a window here, and it's looking through another window, but the back window is black. Any idea why I can't see the sky through it?

Increase the refraction depth of the glass, maybe?

Just tossing this out there, on your glass object is/are there a missing face(s), double faces or some vertices that are not welded causing issues with the IOR?

I've tried that, even put it up as high as it can go, here is my current material settin

Everything is welded correctly, they're just two boxes, nothing else

Better attach (or send) a simplified version of the scene so we can determine exactly what's going on.

Ah thank you! I've made a really simplified version here on my dropbox:

I'm not sure what is causing it but it's easily fixable by changing renderer to another and back again ....EDIT: Aha! You had refraction override on and set to black

It might be a problem of your setting of Refraction. Try to set up for "Color+Alpha" in " Affect channels"

I can't access the file, but fixeighted seems to have found the culprit.
