there sure is, the func_seethrough was made for exactly this purpose, you can also use the func_illousionary witht the invisable from top falg checked <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

hehe, those entities shouldn't be a problem... but it's the commander view and my rooftop-windows that keep interfering with eachother...

btw, I already knew that page <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

If you are using a "sky" brush, make sure that the sky does NOT overlap any non-sky brushes. Hard to explain. Make the sky brush so that it isn't any bigger then the area it covers.

Try make your windows func_seethrough, reduce the alpha for players to the render amout you were using for your glass originally. alternatively I think you can coat the top of your windows with the NULL texture.
