You generally never remove a face to create a window.
The translucency effect is created by the alpha part of the texture.
See for example, [img:2vd6496f]http://www.3DC.com/3DCDocumentation/tutorialmstsmaterials.htm[/img:2vd6496f]
This tutorial
. It is for MSTS but the general principles are the same.
However, If you actually want to create a hole:
1) create the edges for the hole in the face (create points with divide operation + edge operation to join the points; or select 2 edges and create an edge directly with the edge operation; or use the divide operation after a face selection; adjust points coordinates as needed. With the divide operation of one edge, select the created point, hold the e and z keys: with the mouse you can move the point along the edge with the edit control).
Then delete the created face.
2) Send just $20 to Richard and get the Pro version.<!– s:D –><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_biggrin.gif" alt="
