Glass Created 18 years ago2005-06-04 13:49:14 UTC by Elon Yariv

I made a transpernt glass, it all work fine only that it is fullbright!! How can I make a transprent object that is lighted like his serounding? (I tried changing the render mode to addictive, but it didn't do a thing, and to solid, but it wasn't transpernt at all)

rendermode has to be texture.

Well the traditional way is to set the mode to texture and then set the ammount to arround 200. The higher the number the more transparent.
Read the glass tutorials.

I know but thats not the qaustion!!! Ohh yeah, cause I don't use one of the glass textures it can't be too much transpernt!! I use the generic103 texture!!!

Well turned out to be okey when I add light behind the glass but if I will turn off the lights it will look horrible!!! I can only think of using volumatric light but If there is a way to do it with out the volumatric lights then please tell me!

I'm pretty sure this is just something you have to put up with, like the permanent full-brighting of func_water.

Damn it, I'll use volumetric lights then!

Ohh...I don't think that if you change the Func_water's render mode to normal or solid it will be fullbright! It's just the texture, color and addictive modes that makes things fullbright!!!

The higher the number the more transparent.

NO!

The higher the number the moreopaque.

And if you use dark textures, you can make it look less "full bright"

oops.. ment to post this too:

From my experience, water is always full bright

It's exactly the oppisite, the lower the number the more transperent the brush is!!

About that dark glass texture I tried it but I want this Generic103 texture cause it looks like it's bullet proof!!
