Dear all
please advise
what material settings should i use for : glass/Plexiglas box with light inside
please see the attached

Thanks !!

it looks like the problem there is either the glass is modeled too thick or the attenuation is set too low/ transmittance color too dark.

For standard glass something like this should suffice:

A light inside of a glass volume will emit only caustics (for any rays to reach the camera, first it will have to first travel through a volume of glass which will greatly increase calculations), so it will be very noisy. I would use a custom image based emitter. Or in this case AGS may work.
