I just tried out the 4.4 beta.
The glass looks nice, but not as transparent as I wanted. The glass in the chandelier should have a peach hue.
The comparison set up...
How it rendered in sh3d...
Chandelier2 is the one that I went into the .obj and edited the color (usemtl amber_trans)
ChandelierOriginal is the one I sent to Emmanuel
Chanlight is the one I tried making the glass more transparent in Art Of Illusion (and a light, peachy color)
