Shadows on Transparent materials

Is there a way of allowing shadows to cast onto partially transparent materials eg glass on a building

Is it shadow or reflection?

I want to create shadows on windows without making the glass material opaque

the only way I know is to add shadow shapes to the glass, hide the edges and paint it a darker tint than the rest of the surface…

there are extensions that help capture shadows…

Thanks. I can see how this would work but it would be so time consuming on my particular model

@TIG’s extension makes it a little easier Shadow Projector but i can’t remember if it can target ‘glass’…
