searching for translucent material settings

[Guido Duba]

Hi,

Can anybody help me in finding the settings for a glasslike material, used as balustrade or balcony fence. Actually it is twoo sheets of glass with a tranparent white foil glued inbetween. In Dutch there is a word for it, 'milkglass'. Which is what it should look like.

 

White, translucent,and just a tiny litle bit transparent. Working my way from the standard material Glass White-Translucent_Frosted I can't seem to get what I envision. In some lighting conditions, and with specific backgrounds it looks a bit like what I'm looking for;

but then in another view it is way too transparent ans I lose form. It gets way to inderterminable.

Make sure it has something to reflect.  Set the lighting preset to Exterior and try a quick one.  (Path Tracer.)

The latest build is 284, under the experimental grouping. It hasn't given me any problems and others appear to be having good success with it as well.
