WebMaximus 320 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Noticed today by chance how the jetway windows which I first through were truly transparent aren't as seen in the screenshot. You can see the ground as well as the marking on the ground while my aircraft becomes invisible when looking through the glass. Any chance we'll see the windows become truly transparent in an upcoming update? Please login to display this image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marten 80 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Unfortunately not. It is a known limitation of XPlane itself. The reason is that referring to the draw order of objects the aircraft is always the last object which is drawn while you can only see objects through transparency which are drawn before the transparency. It is not possible to draw anything after the aircraft by now so there is no solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WebMaximus 320 Posted November 17, 2018 Author Share Posted November 17, 2018 Got it, thanks for the info. Anyways, I'm very happy at least the transparency works in every other regard. I think that is one of those effects that really adds a lot to the overall sense of realism when it comes to scenery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
