Transparent glass

Unread postby honeybaobao » Thu May 30, 2013 11:26 am

Hi everyone, I designed a bus station for scenery object in sketchup, then export to 3DCrafter, no problems, and to finish export to TS2013, and no problems, but the object look he lost his transparency.

For the blueprint, I used the scenery blueprint, I think i miss something it is sure but where and how ? I googled and I found in 3Dmax can do something on the shaders, but 3dcrafter can do too ? I bet yes, but how ?

I show you the screenshot

In sketchup :

In 3Dcrafter:

And in TS2013:

Thanks in advance for your assistance and answers !!*ok*!!

The shader you are looking for is TrainGlass.fx

I use 3D Crafter so the majority of my responses will be for that tool. Take a look at my blog site and try the tutorials. They should give you a basic understanding of how it all works.

Hi papaxpress, I checked your blog and tuto, and resolved the problems, just textures problem, but this one I can resolve by myself, slowly I do not regreat to pay the licence for 3Dcrafter, because in same time I study this software, very nice and very light, and do good job
