I think I used a glass clip when I tried that. ( glass caulk texture if you know what I mean ) Can't really see the glass, but it's there. Don't hold me to it though.

You mean like these windows?

Tutorial map: Altelevator

The .map file is included, so you can just copy whatever you want. If you don't want them to be breakable, just select all the parts of one and go to Selections > Ungroup Entity.

Textures > Windows > Windowframe1 is a see-thru texture. If you click on the menu button with an "A", you will see thrugh it in radiant.

couldn't a weapons clip be placed over any window created to avoid ''breaking'' . granted that's a less sexy way to do it.

With window selected, hit "s", goto nodamage........... or hit letter "N", bring up entity inspector. In the upper of the two little boxes at the bottom type health and hit tab. In the bottom little box type 10000 hit enter. Deselect brush, ( window ). Glass should have 10,000 health and should take one heck of a beating b4 breaking.

one of those should work.

you might try useing clip brushes too for example a wood clip around the frame will make it sound like wood when shot there is a glass clip too I think .
