How can i do glossy glass?

Question

I've found a beyblade model and it have glossy glass on it. There is no information about that on internet. The creator that model have used "Translucency" map, "Opacity" map and "Scattering" map. All options are supported in Substance Painter but its not works for me. How can i do this glass with substance painter? did anyone know about it?

Don't use opacity, that makes objects transparent, where as glass is refractive. To make glass use a Transmissive layer - but you also need to switch to a shader that supports transmission (e.g. vraymtl-metallic)

Similarly, if you are exporting the maps for rendering elswhere, your renderer will also need to support transmission.
