Medkit transparency
« on: February 05, 2008, 11:11:44 am »
Is there a way to make objects like grenade kits, medkits and so, partially transparent?
The "magic green" nor .png way doesn't seem to work...

.png format doesn't work for pickup icons and the green colour that soldat registers as transparent is ignored for pickups... The reason for this is because the objects folder is located in the textures folder.. and textures have to be bitmap to work in Soldat and transparrency is not allowed in textures for obvious reasons... (it would be very easy to make invisible polygon hacks)

As far as I know anyway...

Well... polygon hax, i doubt, but make the textures invisible and so, yes... but it doesen't matters that much, just make a new folder for it, and make that it can be able to do those actions.

If you could make polygon textures transparent it would allow you to see behind polygons, and so if there were players behind, for instance, a bullet collide poly (which players can pass through) they would be easy to spot.

Not exactly a big issue... but still technically a form of hack.

........................................... What? Only MM or whoever is still developing soldat would be able to enable transparency or .png in the objects folder.

Ya i say that, a new suggestion to the game: Able to add transparency at the kits. Just on that folder so there won't be any proble about those hacks... you undestand what i mean?
