Alright, im having a problem with RenderFX Hologram. I have a func_illusionary texture, set to additive, 255, Hologram. When it shows up in-game I can only see it if im 45degrees to the left of it. Otherwise its just not there... heres a screen to show you whats happening:

    I tried Hologram, and had the same problem. For me, Distort seems to work better. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    hologram is used for models, and doesn't work well with brushes iirc, use distort.

    No offense and also off-topic, but can't you give that escape pod just a little more eye-candy? I'd hate to be stuck in a pod where:

    - I can't sit/lie down
    - My movement is restricted to a short, straight line.
    - I cannot wash/eat
    - I have no form of entertainment except twiddling of the thumbs (one of which has been taken off in the explosions previous to my frantic escape) hence no twiddling.
    - I have no medical equipment to treat my now-gangrenous thumb.
    - I have no waste disposal to dispose of my now-gangrenous arm, not to mention the fact that I'm knee-deep in s**t.
    - I haven't any way to put myself out of my misery.
    - I eventually die one of the most painful deaths ever to <b>not</b> be recorded because there was no way of doing so.

    To conclude:

    Eye-candy can form part of the nutritional requirements that help your young one grow into a strong and healthy map

    1) its pretty much just a landing pod
    2) no, I cant, because with the detail of the room around it, the wPoly count would be too high. Ill make it a <i>bit</i> better, but cant do much more than that.
