all you have to do is create an "Indigo Glass" Material. If the scripts were installed properly you should have it among the material types:

Then play around with the options available for transparency.

oh! got it!
I guess it would be a matter of playing around with the IOR value. That would make it more or less transparent. There's also a dispersion value but I guess that has to do more with caustics and refraction, not sure.
U3dreal would be the ideal person to tell you how to play around with the glass material. Or, you can start tweaking things and doing test-renders; trial and error.
Here's a good material IOR value reference:
