Glass reflections

[Anonymous]

I don't know why but I can't seem to get certain angles of my glazing to render properly. They keep reflecting like a mirror or applying full transparency like a window through the model, or something I don't know?

Can anyone explain this?

Notice you can see through the glass in this attachment but not in the next attachment.

Here a render with no sun at all.

If you look closely you can see the reflection of the wall to the right of the image. So the material is being recognised.

Dwight here is the glass I am using

Sorry Scooter for the broken

@Dwight.
Without Camera light is very nice tip.
Sun light must be ober 130%.
I thought, 100% is the final value.

Camera light off

Realistic Sun 130%

Just from aside, it might be too reflective glass that you're using. Decrease your 'mirror' factor to 0.2 and 'specular' to 0.4 and try again. It will be also easier to diagnose if could post some close-up.

How did you make your nice roof?

Roof was created in Rhino 3D

Apparently there is a bug in my version of ArchiCAD where Lightworks does not render glass properly so I just found out. There is a patch on the graphisoft website when you check for updates from ArchiCAD.

Thank you all for your input and help.

I have just updated my version of Archicad to the latest version and I am still getting the same rendering problem. Can anyone shed some light on this.
