Help! My GLASS BSDF is missing. I do NOT know why this project is cursed.

[Kimberly T.]

Glass BSDF is showing grey checkerboards!!!! I tried EVERY other project and it all works except for this ONE! It’s really making me angry. I was working on a specific problem other than this tunnel and I must’ve hit some shortcuts that messed this up but I am not sure how??? This is the only project that I have that is up to date!!

HI Kimberley @AnimationStudent ,

I’d like to help, but can’t see the connectiion between your  question and the Screenshots you posted….

The water is opaque now. I’m trying to get it like the first picture and I noticed the material has a checkerboard icon.

You are using EEVEE, so you’ll need to get your Settings right. Your Blend Mode should  not be set to Opaque. For instance:

Unless there’s a window or an opening somewhere, that sun lamp is not doing anything in the scene. Blender is quirky enough that it may even be what is doing that to the water. Not likely, but nevertheless the sun lamp could be deleted if it’s not doing anything for that hall.

Okay. I realised… that I had a sun lamp that I accidentally added when my computer was lagging…. and that did it. Sorry, this was silly. Though, yes my settings were not adjusted that way and I just did. It has made my water look better. Thank you. I appreciate you guys’ help and I love the replication of that scene. Thank you very much.
