Thanks for the info! No I have NOT been extruding my transparent objects.
I have been trying to use a disk plus texture to create flaring lights in
an underwater scene (ala SeaQuest), but the disks eliminated the global
fog wherever I used them. Now you say if I extrude the disks slightly,
giving them two sides, this won't happen. Yea! I'll give it a try. 🙂
I DO want a PAR system but for now I'll have to settle for using my 4000
and DCTV to pump out the frames real time. If I use 3 bitplane mode I can
fit about 200 frames NON compressed in my 18megs. I could then play back
the required 60 fields/sec. by page flipping. I'll let you know how it
works out.
