UDK Mesh Vertex Transparency

toxic_h2o

Hey I had a question regarding, UDK material editor.

I am wondering if there is a way to set up a material that will draw the meshes vertices transparent based on their vertex color.

The goal is to be able to blend some separate terrain meshes(patches) together by floating them on top of one another.

example one mesh has a cliff texture and the other is a ground texture.



Thanks

when making a material in UDK, you got the vertex colour node, so you could plug that nodes alpha, into the materials opacity, and set the material type to masked translucent.

thanks for the quick reply, it seems to work!

there is also a mesh paint tool in udk to paint different vert colour in hte engine, and the data isnt limited to just alpha and colour, you can use the output of the vertex colour node for anything you want.
