Indigo Renderer Forum

Should they be modeled as they truly are? As in, two separate, spaced sheets of glass... or something simpler, like a single polygon?

I don't have a great handle on dealing with glass in Indigo yet.

yes model it with all possible details, normals pointing out

Wow, that was quick. Thanks, will do. Yes, normals seem very important too.

it is a good habit to model everything as closed volume, and take care to normals, especially if you plan to render it with indigo

Thanks, good advice. I got used to modeling that way in Wings, sort of forced to, it makes a lot of sense anyway.

I found my earlier problem, though, was because I was sloppy smoothing my window objects, my rendering issues cleared up once I noticed. Along with geometry, it helps to be mindful of smoothing groups as well.
