As people probably already suspected, it seems to work best for subtle effects.
Also included here is a very curious bug I found, where it applied my transparent texture to the whole model. It was in the freeze just before map change though, so it's probably something that would fix itself if it was allowed to.
That head reminds me of the Ingram from Patlabor.....
For those who have no idea what an Ingram looks like. Voila <img src='http://www.robotoys.com/AV98Ingram.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

Well ... I was stuck for ideas with how to do his helmet, and I always thought the Patlabor stuff looked neat ...
I guess you've found me out <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Patlabor is probably in my all time Top 5 anime series, so I gotta love the helmet design.
Few anime references get by me ;o
I always wanted an Ingram custom model for NS.... but because I'm a firm believer in original material I can't really request it.
For those who are gonna call me a hypocrite. My wanting of the Ingram model is in the same context of a 20 million dollar mansion. I want it, but I know it's not gonna happen.
The welding torch is from AvP2, just so we're clear on who made it in case anyone had forgotten.
The additive transparency probably doesn't work right yet because it's not a proper HL update. This is only a little bit thrown in until HL is updated, which will be shortly. Possibly as a test, maybe not. Maybe it'll be fixed, maybe it won't.
The glitch where the transparency was on the whole model is probably because the NS code calls on DLL ellements that may have been slightly tweaked in these new DLL's. In otherwords: it's just a glitch. Don't worry about it.
Hell, in ToD, sometimes your teammates spawn with enemy skins, so you think you have to shoot them, which gets awkward on FF servers. Compared to that, the transparency glitches are minimal. I love what you're doing with them, though. Good job. Too bad that laser thing on the head didn't turn out how you expected. That will look SO cool in a mod when it's implemented properly [next NS update, anyone?].
Anyway, just got pointed here from the DoD forums. Seeya.
This new transparency makes me wanna have cloaked predator models ... but that would suck when I'm on the other team <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
I've been unable to get masked transparncy working in v_models so far (but it's definitely possible, since DoD has weapons that use it), but when I was experimenting I switched the texture mode to additive just to check that things were at least slightly working. Here's the result:
For some reason v_models work perfectly with transparencies - no entities show through. Also, I did a little bit of testing (dropped a DoD v_model into NS) which proved to me that there's just something wrong with my masked version of that texture, and not with NS's handling of transparencies.
is predator hud now a possibility? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->.Now we could make their targeting laser,shoulder cannon bolts,the cloak to with good looking textures(predator bends light near him with that cloaking machine).So it would work with additive textures,even it would render objects behind him <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> .
