Dear neil:-) thank you! good advice. - "how to do that?": you have said: "increase the recursion level of your render" to stop the glass/glass turning dark... Perhaps I haven't looked at it... the other side you are right it might be a "specularity" problem and I have to finetuning it for my glass textures... I built some new vsl textures with glass to become some day an "ice" structure... I will solve the glass/glass problem and send it to here :-) this area of vsl and glassy textures are new for me, but I see the possibilities and I like glass, gold, chrome and such shining materials... servus, bye, Frank

Tweak the specularity of the glass material in VSL editor to get the degree of sharpness and specular brightness you prefer.

I will make more exercises with glassy textures and objects so I can find out where is my visual problem of the objects... sometimes the objects shining nearly invisible sometimes only the back object lying behind the first object with glassy structures... must laugh... :-) not so easy to understand... best wishes, Frank -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [email protected] Gesendet: 15.05.08 18:08:36 An: <[email protected]> Betreff: RE: picture I have forgotten... :-) Have you tried to make the cylinders hollow? That would definitely reduce the effect.

I mean my both cylinder objects right side in my scene... I have attached it... best regards, frank _________________________________________________________________________ In 5 Schritten zur eigenen Homepage. Jetzt Domain sichern und gestalten!
