Transparency Bug

[Kitty.cat]

Okay. Look at my OGL prefs. I still can't seem to get windows to be transparent. I've played around with some things, like "supports lazy textures" and the TNT and S3TC but they didn't work. Any UT engine masters have any idea if there's a line of code missing or something?

The only thing that comes to mind is the usealphapalette flag that probably needs to be set to true, but I could be wrong.

That also did nothing. Thank you, though.
Anyone else?

If you're using chris odohnal Ogl driver, you should have a line that reads :
MaskedTextureHack=True
This is supposed to fix some problems with transparent textures.

edit : looking at the other thread, i see that you're on mac. Forget the odohnal solution.
edit 2 : does the 'flush' command fix your problem ingame ?

 

[randomas]

flush only works with the DoPrechache= true but it would also mean no nightvision for Kitty ...

i changed my settings to those of randomas and it fixed some problems i had with transparent texture.
