C4Dtut: Realistic Glass Matby ~sicklizard

At very first, let me apologize for all the typos. I was in a hurry and additionally, there were some friends of mine at my place, so I couldn´t concentrate that well....
I will change that ASAP....

An explanation of the C4D transparency.

How you create realistic glass with correct reflections.
How to create opaque materials with the tranparency absorption.

If there are any questions, ask me by sending a note.

cool!
what happen if u put another object inside..say for example..water..or wine..

i was doing some test few days ago..and even if i had a lot of raytrace ray bouces, the inside object was looking crap

can u try..like..clean glass (no color) and some color liquid inside..your set up will work ?
thank u!

To put liquid in it, it´s important that the liquid doesn´t "touch" the glass. To get the best result, the glass and the liquid should slightly overlap. (with slightly, I mean less than 0.01 units)
That will create the most realistic refraction.
I suggest you to set ray depth to 7 or 8 and reflection depth to 3 to 5.
