: This is something I was considering looking into today or on the weekend when I realy have some time. I want to make portaled doors that you can see through. I have thought of 2 ways to do it, and was going to try them out to see if they would work. Anyway, the bacta tanks are translucent, but I have never pulled one apart to see how it was done. There must be something in the cog or thing flags that sets it, combined with a 0.0.0 RGB mat so that it is see through. I figure the flag must modify this somehow to make it transucent. If I find the specifics, or if anyone else knows them post it!
I've tried to make a transluent box by appying the 0x0002 (translucent) flag to the surfaces but it doesn't work as the level keeps freeznig up. However, this might be because I haven't quite got the hang of adding 3DO's to levels yet. Still, with you on the case, there is still hope...
