Hello Is it possible to change the alpha color for 3D actors? Here is the code I am using:

Code: WME Script

1. actor.AmbientLightColor = MakeRGBA(255,255,255,100); //100 being the alpha, tried other values as well, no luck

Is this how to do it ? I tried with jpg and png images and nothing works.

Let me know Thanks

i try your code and works fine for me and wme 3d demo.

i try with actor.AmbientLightColor=MakeRGBA(255,255,255,100); and actor.AmbientLightColor=MakeHSL(100,150,200); and the two work fine for me.

try with actor.AmbientLightColor=MakeRGBA(255,0,0,255);<--- The character change to red?? try with differents values and look the diference.

You can use Scene.AmbientLightColor but this affect to all 3d actor of the scene

I dont need to change the colors, only the alpha. I just tried it in wme 3D demo just now and still it does not work. Changing the RGB values work, but I don't need to do that. I just need to change the alpha value, and that is not working.

Can someone please help? Can 3D actor's alpha value be properly change? Thanks

That's just the way the light hits the object, so it's asking a lot for it to disappear, which sounds like what you are asking.  If there's no code for it, you're kind of out of luck.  You would have to use a sprite or get it added to the next version.

I think the texture sets the alpha value, so you could change the texture to a texture with a different alpha value.

Hi piagent,

have you found a way to change the Alpha value for your 3D actor?

[piere]

Hi shuin, no I have not. I just set the texture's alpha value in Photoshop and save it as a png

You would need to do it through shader.
