Anyone know how to use the Art of Illusion? Problem with Sweet Home
Hello everyone! First of all I want to thank you for your time reading this message. The question is. I need a sheet of glass to use in Sweet Home because I make waterfalls and I need to represent the effect of waterfall water. The problem is that I try to create in the Art of Illusion a transparent sheet but when I export it in .obj file when I import it from sweet home it is not transparent. I tried in many ways but I can't. I have very basic knowledge of 3D creation programs. If you have a website that has this effect or if you can tell me how to create it, I would greatly appreciate it! , Greetings from Argentina :)

You could edit the MTL file exported from Art of Illusion and add a d line for the material of the water (value between 0 for fully transparent and 1 for fully opaque).
d 0.5
See also MTL specifications and some existing models like this wall lamp.
