I am working on a scene with glass walls. I would like the edges to have a green tint. What’s the best way to accomplish this? I tried a bunch of things, but nothing is working for me.

The dark edges of glass are caused by total internal reflection/refraction, and what you are seeing is all the way through the long part of the glass with light being absorbed as it travels through it (Hence it being so dark). The often green hue/tint to this is caused by small amounts of iron impur…

but, it’s adding it to all the glass. I just want it along the edge, to make the glass look thick.[quote=“Macker, username:Macker”] The fog colour will add the green tint. [/quote]

VRay Dirt to add a green tint/edge to glass?

Seems like a convoluted way to do it, and will result in something not physically based? In which slot would you put the VRay Dirt?

hmm, i misunderstood… i thought, glorybound is searching for a dark area IN the glass AT the edges. well, than fog is your choice and exit color in reflection.
