Hi All,

     Relatively new to DAZ (5 or 6 months) but enjoying it and slowly learning.  I've come up against a problem, though, and maybe after everyonegets done laughing because I missed an obvious solution I can move through this!  I've used a number of great models I purchased and downloaded that included windows, and all of them easily showed outside from inside and vice versus.  Recently I purchased Ultra Mod Beach House and Mountain Villa because they had such great potential for wonderful views, but no matter what I do, the windows are opauge!  You can't see outside from inside, or inside from outside.  The window panes are simply a silvery thing!  Is there some secret to making this work that I am missing, or were all those grreat views in the promo shots edited in with Photoshop or something?

Thanks so much,

Brian

    Those products are for the 3DL render engine. To use them with Iray you have to apply some IRay glass shaders to the window mats. Sorry I'm not using IRay myself

    but I know IRay doesn't handle transparent materials the same way as 3DL.

    Thanks!  I'll give it a try in 3DL!

    You can also use the Daz Iraay Uber Shader for glass. Try Thin Walled.
