My glass is fine but won't allow for laptop screen to be seen...

So my windows on my FPIU seem fine. Has the correct reflectivity and tint. But the strange thing is that the interior lights from the laptop screen, siren controls, radios don't show through the glass. It's not until I open the door that all the equipment lights shine nice and bright.

Is it something I need to configure in zmodeler for the windows or the equipment itself?

Emissive materials must be higher in the material browser than any vehglass material that they are visible through. For interior emissives, this usually means that they should be all the way at the top of the material browser.

Move your glass material to the very bottom of the materials browser. After every item you add to your model, the glass material must be moved, or do it last before you export it

This worked like a charm!!!!

Thanks!!!

Only problem is that I kinda want to make the windows a little darker in tint.

Is that also easy to do in Zmodeler?

That will be a simple texture edit in whatever paint program you use. Photoshop/Gimp/Paint.net or whatever
