Sexeh sphere/orb! But, no, I don't think that is how you do glass in HL. Just set transparency in HLMV. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I'm having the exact same problem as you Nubz, I made it look almost like real glass with the additive function but in-game it doesn't look good. I have a good glass texture but then the rest of the bottle looks black and it doesnt work well.
(EDIT: Was replying to 2nd page, but I already tried additive [transparent is different] and it doesn't look right in-game, the bottle are hard to sere and are extremely bright.)
Keep in mind, people most likely wont walk up close to the bottle and pay alot of attention to the details, but this is what I have so far. I sharpen my preview pictures a little, because Half-Life models dont get that sharp, so of course it is a little more blurry in-game. It looks like an old generic bottle I know...please give me any suggestions.
lol john dude i already made one, and that is the entire point of the last 2 pages...i dont know how to acquire a glass material...or how to make it an .mdl

God you rock CTX! That beer bottle owns but I need the cigarettes frostymoose made turned into MDL files... when I try and export it to SMD it says... (see attached)
DarkATI, the problem was there was no joint/bone and every model has to have at least one joint/bone and every vertex in a model has to be assigned to a joint/bone.
Also, I noticed the text on 'FATTEH' and Surgeon General's Warning was messed up so I fixed it, should be clearly readable now.
I'm still struggling with the trash because whenever I make one of the faces, then try to make another face below it, using the same vertexes, it counts it as a backface. I have yet to figure this out <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->
