      Hello,

      I need some help with a good material for windows. I'm doing an interior visualisation and I would like to create material that allows me to see everything that's behind the window but also makes some reflactions of my interior. Whenever I add a refraction, I loose the view of the outside and I don't really know how to create a good effect. I uploaded my interior visualisation.

      Thanks for any advises ๐Ÿ˜„

        If your glass is a single plane, you want to give it some thickness, like .12 and use a standard glass material. I have attached one, but if you are not using v2.0 it might not load correctly.

            You can also use a single plane for the glass with a thin glass material. I've attached one that I use sometimes.

                One more material here that I use sometimes. This uses a lot of artistic license, but sometimes you just want a glass material to appear 'glassy'. This is a cheat that does not use Fresnel and is not fully transparent. It's a nice cheater.
