Help making rain more clear

[Pencil (Vomit)]

i’m doing this tutorial on youtube and for some odd reason my raindrops arent clear enough like the tutor in the video. i’ve checked every setting in from the video 3x and still can’t get clear rain drops

Can you do a screenshot of the mat settings for the water?

If you want transparency this would be up to something like one, although I suspect the video doesn’t use the pricipled bsdf, probably the glass bsdf.

ok. i turned the transmission up to 1 and nothing. i also changed the surface type to Glass BSDF and nothing.

Can you post a link to the video?

He starts creating the results for the raindrops at 2:56

I didn’t realize you were using eevee. Check out 3:07.

[Pencil (Vomit)]

wow. i didnt know. so do i change the setting from eevee to cycles?

[a59303]

No, you just turn on screen space refractions and reflections.

And probably, more importantly, enable alpha hashed blending in material settings for the water material.

it’s turned on but nothing happened. screen space refractions and relections is also turned on

No, alpha blend mode in settings. Underneath all the surface settings there.

I didn’t type it but its in the video at that point. I think.

[Pencil (Vomit)]

I did it!! i mean you did it!!! i turned off the screen space refraction and there’s progress

[Pencil (Vomit)]

it’s weird, because the tutor in the video turned it on and got the same result i just did. anyhoo, thank you my friend!
