Glass Roof Tests

peoinee

So i was doing some testing one thing so many wanted these roofs for was for a skylight among other things. So I set out to see what they could do simply

First you will NOT see thew another roof even if the glassroof is the higher of the 2 you will just have a glass roof over another roof this will be fine for a green house or greenroom off a house but not for sky lights. what i did find is if you make a 2nd story and put the glass roof on that then you can have a skylight as long as the other roof is shorter than the glass roof.

this is an idea of what im talking about with the 2nd floor. that extra roof there shows the base hight of a roof. i just lowered the roof below the edges of the walls then flattened my glass roof.

Outside


inside BTW the plain glass roof looks funny from the inside like there is no roof at all



and this shows what happens if a roof is intersecting with a glass roof if you look closely you can see the top of the regular roof threw the glass roof

Curious to see further tests

ok i have to get going but this was some of the things i got done today I made the pictures of each roof type for me when im thinking of things not in game i have to say my favorite effect is the Hexagon glass roof with the round roof. I did like the effect the slanted roof made on a house i could see using that a few places. In the background of a few shots you can see a greenhouse like building i found for the lights they have to just hang in mid air if your not using cheats
