Is it at all possible to have frosted materials in Source?Bu this I mean lighting and shadows are partially visible but diffused, but brushes are not, kinda like paper really.
Thanks

You'd have to write your own shader.

Or you could make a 4194304 by 4194304 image, go crazy with Add Noise, and turn it into a Du/Dv map :P . But seriously, like Rabid said, you'd have to design your own shader to support it.

Hmm.. does it blur the refracting surface or what's being refracted, so it DOES look like this?:

because if so, then that's awesome :D . I CBA to check it myself, though. :D
