Bitoque,
Your window's glass material must be set to "Glass" or other
transparent material and "Transparency in Shading" has to be
set to "ON" in the 3D window settings.
Thank you,
Peter Devlin

I wanted to write you should always make sure that the transparency value of your material is set to a value of 70 or greater. Below 70 even glass is non-transparent. Of course the default of glass is set to a value of 70 or greater so it works correctly.
So this is what I wanted to write.
However, I just noticed that this transparency thing changed. I don't know if it changed in AC 9 or earlier.
Now if you have the transparency value set to 30 or less, the material is non-transparent, 31 or higher make it transparent.
I see that 30 + 70 = 100, so this transparency threshold might be calculated from the other direction (from 0, not 100).
I attach a screen shot so it is more understandable.
Sorry, it is a HUN copy of AC, but it is set to Internal Engine, and the arrow points to the Transparency value of the Dialog.
The Window on the left has a transparency value of 30, the one on the right has a value of 31.
