[SA] Glass Problem [ZMOD2]

[Kiona O]

HELLO EVERYONE!

I have a problem with my glass in my conversion. I'm convert a car, I added a textures to .txd and then I export it as .tga, and replace she stock tga's. And I have a problem with glass, other textures are OK, but glass is too dark, and I can see to inside. Please how to fix it? I trying to give [trans] command and nothing happend.

 

HERE'S ONE PICTURE, FOR PREVIEW:

There's more than one way to make glass.

 

I'll use Zmodeler as an example, although you can do this in Max as well.

 

Open up the material editor and make a new material. Now adjust the sliders so the the RGB are all 0 and the color is Black.

 

Now start playing with the opacity to make the material semi-transparent, like this.

 

 

Select the glass faces of your windows, open the material editor and click "apply to selection". Presto, clear windows. Even better, it's easy to play around with and make simple changes with and doesn't require messing around with image editing programs.

Alternatively, you can change the darkness of the TGA background to a lighter/darker gray to change the opacity of it.

Uhm.. I haven't this version of Zmod :-/ Where to find transparent button in 2.2.2 (build 964) ?

[Kiona O]

I set opacity to 50%. Uhm... how to make car lower?

HERE'S THE PREVIEW:

Slide the opacity setting farther to the left so the little sphere looks clearer.

can you teach me how to do this in 3dsmax??

You need to add in material name a suffix [spec:amount of speculariness].

For example - glass [spec:45]

that means my texture name is glass.bmp for example

but where should i place the suffix ???

In material editor you have a list of materials and its names. And here you need add suffix with spec.
