I had to battle with alpha channels today. The program put up a fight, but I was able to get the transparent parts to cooperate. It's not done, as the game will try and overwrite aa transparent object with another one and blend them together. I still have to do pigmentation, but now that the alpha channel is working that should be the last big hurdle for the builders.I was fighting with the alpha channel all day because my method of clearing buffers with a transparent background dropped my framerate to the point where it was taking three minutes
to render a screen with an alpha channel in it. It was resolved, but It's still cosmetically.... iffy so I have more work ahead of me while I fix up the pigmentation portion.
Today was a slog. Bugs suck.
