Exactly...

Nicrod,

Questions about a product belong on the manufacturer's own forums. See:
http://www.artlantis.com/_forums/viewforum.php?f=19

There is a Maxwell engine frosted glass if you have the add-on license. The standard Artlantis shader close to this is called Granulated Glass. I can't remember how to get the diffuse blur as seen in your image...but I remember some guys managed.

Well. Thanks for the replies.
I'm checking on that forum as well.
Apologies Karl, since the subject of the forum is:"Producing imagery with ArchiCAD or 3rd party products; Materials; Lighting; Artlantis/Cinema 4D/Maxwell etc.", I guess i got thrown off by the "Artlantis" part.

[Karl Ottenstein]

Sorry. It is confusing. The intent of the forum with respect to 3rd part products is the interface between AC and them: export, model sync, etc. The actual use of the 3rd party product is most productively discussed with that product's user base on another forum. It's not forbidden to talk here... just less likely to get expert feedback.

You can download a file from midway into the discussion created by Andy Thomson, Tue May 01, 2007 6:02 am called:

Within this zip are a number of great glass textures, one called Miami Aqua is good for what your image requires. After exporting the AC model into Artlantis, adjust the Reflection, Shininess and Transparency settings to be .40, 382, and .47 respectively or as needed for this material. The texture on the shelving edges in the PDF is a different texture (Dwight's trick) called LW Hi-Refract Green, also from this collection (not required for your image).
