Has anyone....

Has anyone found a solid material setup for window shades or film?
Currently using opacity at 95% causes the material to look like black “glass” even with the reflection and specular value off the material looks completely incorrect. If using a bitmap to act as an opacity mask this works however in motion this looks terrible with some much noise flicker.

Looking for suggestions - I’ve been trying many combinations and the results are just poor.

Is there a real life precedent image that you could share please of what your “goal” would be?

And yes, this has been a constant struggle

I’ve used the foliage foliage type since it has some translucency to it by default. I just add a fabric material to it and a normal and it seems to do the job.
