Hi, I have a problem with glass materials. When I use material crystal the same scene turns out to be reflected in the same one inside a sphere, why this happens? I need urgent help, please. I attach images where it appears

check twice. this kind of look on flat surfaces happens with wrong phong angles. Or you could not accurately describe the problem

hi, if you use the specular material, the sheet of glass must be extruded just a bit, otherwise the room react like a big magnifying glass ;) take care also of the normals direction ;)

I had the same problem.

Thanks Beppe!

Putting the glass plane into the cloth nurbs and giving it a thickness of 0,3cm happened to be a solution with me. :)

cheers!
