- Give your wall a thickness of 6 inches/15cm
- apply a color to BOTH SIDES OF the thick wall
- be sure the normals of the wall faces point away from the centerline. (the outside of the wall should face to the exterior, the inside of the wall should face the interior)
- apply the Realistic Glass Template to interior and exterior faces.
- Set IOR for the glass material to 1.1, set Alpha to 1 Set COLOR to “white”.
- Apply Material Template Architectural Glass No Shadow to your Window Glass. Make sure the windows are built with only one face of glass.
- Render with Easy 09
