Window bug on diagonal walls. Build Mode - Growing Together. A Left-Side of Modern Art Window - Medium. When placing the window on a diagonal wall, the external side of the window loses its transparency. The internal side of the window displays as expected. It has been tested in multiple walls and lots and the bug appears to be consistent. It is only the medium size of the window that is affected and only the exterior side.

I tested this and you are correct.  One side goes opaque when placed in a diagonal wall.  It is fine in regular walls.  Also, the Right-Side version of the window does not have the problem.

 

Hope this helps.

Definitely not graphical. Came across this bug in Sims 4 Studio making addons and double-checked in-game. Part of the diagonal Lod2 object is included in the diagonal lod0 object making the outside solid and flat mesh instead of transparent. This mesh should only be seen when zooming out to aid in GPU rendering but has somehow been included in the high lod mesh. It is fine looking from the other side of the window. This issue is not present on the right-hand version of the window as seen in images attached

I just want to quickly add, this is specifically the diagonal mesh versions, so in order to replicate the wall will need to be a medium/tall and diagonal. Standard alignment is fine

Hiya! It is not a mod/cc issue this is just how the "A Left-Side Work of Modern Art Window - Medium" is when placed on a diagonal wall. 

Here is a image of them all on a straight vs a diagonal. Im playing on ULTRA settings btw .

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Place the A Left-Side Work of Modern Art Window - Medium from Growing Together on a diagonal wall.
What happens when the bug occurs? From the outside, the window appears opaque, like the wall is still continuing through it. From the inside, it is transparent as normal. This doesn't happen on walls that follow the grid, nor does it happen with the right window.
What do you expect to see? The window to be transparent from both sides, even on diagonal walls.

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

While placing it on a diagonal wall, one of the windows from Growing together is showing up as opaque from the outside, but not from the inside. It doesn't do this on walls placed on the grid, nor do other windows from the pack do this. And trim color doesn't seem to matter. I'm attaching screenshots from inside the build and outside it to show what happens.
