Author Topic: Extremely annoying translucency error [Blender]  (Read 1558 times)

It is an issue with normals.
No it is not, because I have reversed them before and it didnt change a thing in-game.
No way around it.
How can that be true, when the translucency worked perfectly on this model? (the scope)
never have doublesided on.
Can you tell me why, perhaps? -_-

Don't know why it doesn't work, but in that image there are reversed normals. That is what it looks like.

With the "no way around it" I meant that I am 100% sure that the normals are reversed.

I am not entirely sure how much it affects the performance if at all, but I've heard it increases the render time for that model. Since there are faces inside the model that the game needs to render but you will never see them unless you specifically go inside the model.

I know what it looks like; that was the first thing I checked. But Ive tried reversing them several times and it didnt work... Would append/linking the trans mesh from my rifle and joining the two meshes maybe help?

I used single faces for a few parts of the model. Plus, ALL weapons are double-sided rendering. At least that I have seen.



works fine for me, send me the blend ill see if i can find the problem

I will tommorow.

I also got a vehicle with trans working just a couple minutes ago, no issues. So I know it's the model; somehow at least...
