Hi all, im rendering a car and the glass is playing some tricks on me. It looks as if im looking into water, when the objects behind it are bending or shifting postion slightly. when rendering a front/left shot, the seats add up to 3, lol, crap! im using the Env chrome for the reflected color, the glass itself looks good but im wondering if thats the issue. and im not about to limo tint them.

thanks to anyone who responds!

thats called refraction, that's normal.

however, your glass shouldn't be so reflective or refractive... car glass has a very low IOR (index of refraction) so, try lowering the IOR. :D
