How to import model of a cabinet with transparent glass panel?Dear Forum Users,
I have created a 3D model of a cabinet which has a wooden body and as door a glass panel with a wooden frame. The model has been done in Art of Illusion V3.0 and exported from there as a OBJ-File enabling the option 'Write Textures to .mtl File' in the Art of Illusion Export-Dialog.
After this I imported the created OBJ-File in my Furniture Library using the Furniture Library Editor 1.12.
When using the Cabinet model in Sweet Home 3D Version 42 though, the glass panel in its door is just black and no more transparent as it was in Art of Illusion.
To illustrate this I'll attache an image, showing the rendering of Art of Illusion on the left hand side and the result in Sweet Home 3D next to it.
Since there are some models having cabinets with transparent glass panels in the Libraries which are available for Download over the Sweet Home 3D Website there must be a way to do this... but how?
I searched a while on the forum here but did not find a proper post - so it would be great if somebody had me a hint!
Well, and since I am just writing another related question: it seems that the textures are being taken over at all, just the color: if you look on my image you can see a wood structure on the Art of Illusion rendering - but no more in Sweet Home 3D. This happened to all my own created and imported models up to now.
I'd appreciate any help!
Thanks in advance and good night from Germany
Michael
