Modeling the clear glass tutorial

I went through all of the steps to create this clear glass and mine does not look like the glass at the end of the tutorial. I know they are using Rhino 6 and I am using 8 but I figured there shouldn’t be much of a difference. Can someone help me out?

What tutorial? What looks different? Rendering glass is all about the environment around it.

Try with an hdri

Hi @Shannon_Patel,

The Custom material type doesn’t render correctly for transparency. The liquid in the glass, the water, can instead be created starting with the Glass material type and changing the IOR value to 1.33. I also see you have Vray installed, make sure Rhino Render is the active renderer in the Render drop down menu > Current Renderer flyout or at the top of the Rendering panel. That can make a difference too.

I hope that helps.
