• Translucency issue
    3 replies, posted
Has anyone ever noticed when you shine a flashlight on some textures like, for example, the ghoul model's pants (ported by S-Low,) they go completely see through? I've been experimenting with this problem for a while, changing lines in the .vmt's and such, but nothing seems to fix this. I checked into how some fence props' textures do not do this, nor does Alyx's "hairbits" texture. Does anyone have a clue as to why this happens? I'll provide a picture if anyone wants.
It's probably due to using the wrong translucency shader. Most props and ragdolls should be using $alphatest, rather than $translucency or $transparent.
[code]"VertexLitGeneric" { // Original shader: VertexLitTranslucentTexture "$translucent" 1 "$basetexture" "models/Alyx/hairbits" "$halflambert" 1 "$nodecal" "1" "$nocull" "1" }[/code] That's from Alyx's "hairbits", one of the textures not affected by this. None of these settings seem to fix it.
