I'm trying to build a simple metro train. My goal is to make the windows transparent so I can see from the inside the lights that are out of the train. I tried to play around with the settings that are within the Glass shader but I cannot do it. I get the effect only on the outer side. Im a newbie.

This is from the inside:

This is from the outside:

As you can see I get a reflection which I dont want. I want only the glass to be transparent from both sides.

  • $\begingroup$ You have transparent glass if you can see inside. From outside you see black because of black environment, but you have invisible the light behind the glass, right? I changed title. If Im wrong change it back. Thank you $\endgroup$

Light source behind a glass (Eevee)

enter image description here

To see through a glass enable

  • Properties editor > Render Properties tab > Screen Space Reflections > Refractions
  • and under Material Properties > Settings > Screen Space Refraction

enter image description here

To see a light source like a Point

  • add a Cube (in location of light) with Principle Volume shader
  • decrease Density to 0.1 or lower and Anisotropy increase to 0.9
