Hi friends,

Was wondering if any of you know how to make some nice glass in 3dsmax 4.2 .

I been using a raytrace material, but it seems to take forever to render. Do you know if i can use another method or a renderer like Final render to make Glass and render it quick.

The glass is to be used in a front store window scene.

Thanks.

:surprised

:argh:

Well if you wan't to render it faster you can always try using reflect/refract material right under raytrace. It's not as accurate as raytrace but it is faster.

Oh I didn't see you just needed it for a storefront window. Try Flat Mirror that will definately speed things up.
