Unable to get transmission to work

#1

Hey guys,

I have been trying hard to get transmission to work.
It seems impossible.

I used an Alstandard, unchecked opaque, tried to take specular of from my texture and from render, turn reflection off of my HDRI… Bumped the transmission rays to max… Here in this simple setup i can’t seem to see the red cube behind it… I tried with a cube instead of this model… I increased the depth in the transmission… Nothing seems to work. HELP

Thanks,

Tim

It is working correctly. Refraction bends the light rays so you don’t see what’s directly behind your model. If you want that kind of behavior, activate geometry>thin walled on your material.
