Did you create an alpha channel in your bitmap? BTW, here's a nice liite tutorial I saw recently, about pre-multiplied vs. normal alpha. http://www.ypoart.com/tutorials/Alpha-about.htm Probably way beyond what you need right now, but the knowledge does come in handy if you see a halo around your transparent material. 3ds…

I used Houdini to generate terrain, river (via spline), obstacles and automatically place foam-particles to slopes (waterfall) and obstacles. Here is my thread with detailed information This thread contains links to two tutorials I used as main…
Hello, Thanks for the GREAT tutorials!!!! I used the tutorials here to create a player model for Q3. It worked fine as a player model or a bot.
