Resolved!!Preset mane transparency glitch/Internet explorer??

[Kipjen]

I noticed when making the mane for my friend's preset that the tips of the mane look different than the original mane.
I know nothing about coding. But mainly (no pun intended) the tips kind of fold/dissapear into each other when you move the camera angle. The tips are fuzzy too.

Here is what it looked like in gimp

I looked at other posts and they were confusing or not related to this specifically.

Fold/disappear into each other? I believe I know what you're talking about. Take your mane coding and replace it with this:

Code: [Select]

material preset_#_maneMat
{
technique
{
pass
{
cull_hardware none
cull_software none
alpha_rejection greater_equal 128
texture_unit
{
texture preset_#mane.png
}
}
}
}
Just simply fill in the #'s with whatever preset folder you're using

Ok... I'll try. And by folded into eachother i meant they became oddly transparent

[Kipjen]

Wait How??? I have no idea where to put this or how to open anything. Yeah I have literally no idea what that is sorry. I don't know what i'm supposed to be opening.

Go into your preset's folder, and open preset_#.material (it won't actually be a numbersign, rather the actual number of whatever preset folder you're using) with notepad.
The easiest way to do this is to open notepad, go to File, Open... select "All Files" from the dropdown, then navigate to the file.

You'll see a bunch of lines of material code.

Scroll down til you see this section: (again, the # sign will be the actual number of the preset folder you are in.)

Code: [Select]

material preset_#_maneMat
{
technique
{
pass
{
lighting off
cull_hardware none
cull_software none
scene_blend alpha_blend
depth_write off
texture_unit
{
texture preset_#mane.png
}
}
}
}
highlight that section and replace it with this:

Code: [Select]

material preset_#_maneMat
{
technique
{
pass
{
cull_hardware none
cull_software none
alpha_rejection greater_equal 128
texture_unit
{
texture preset_#mane.png
}
}
}
}
You will need to manually replace the # signs with the number that matches the preset folder and rest of the code.

I can only open it with Internet explorer. No other choices are avaliable.... I did go into "open with" and nothing happened. (even on the actual window default mode)

The easiest way to do this is to open notepad, go to File, Open... select "All Files" from the dropdown, then navigate to the file.

Don't use "open with," on the file, actually open Notepad first, then do as stated above.

Oh! That's much better now Thanks

It's good to hear that you've fixed up the issue. I'll lock this up for you since the problem no longer stands.
