  • Glass Issues

    I'm having an issue with some glass partitions. The office "dividers" are a frosted material, and the long glass wall is a clear material. I need to change the v-ray properties of each (Ie. visible in reflections, visible in refractions) but am unsure which to use for which objects. In this example, anywhere you see frosted glass, it's because you're looking through an open door into that office. What I don't understand though is why the frosted glass doesn't form an entire wall, but gets eliminated anywhere there's clear glass over it. The three desks you're seeing are not reflections, but the actual office spaces. It's almost like the clear glass cancels out anything that's behind it if that makes sense.

    Hi David,

    I assume that the frosted glass objects are excluded from the glass refractions. Could you check this?
    Otherwise it will be good to check the scene file and investigate further.

      Actually, "Visible in refractions" is turned on for both the frosted and clear materials.

        Can you post part of the scene to see the entire setup?
