Sneaky,

I've only glanced at the mod that does this, but it confused me when I tried to install it. Is there a step-by-step tutorial for this anywhere?

Cool stuff btw!

Re: HQ?- fly the flag- More on Alpha channel

Just made a discovery:-

The background colour in the alpha channel gives transparent areas on the model. (That much I knew). The foreground color in the alpha channel produces ground shadow for the object.

Cool!

You can take away walls? Or are there buildings like that already?

Neat set up.

Just made the alpha channel cover the cargo. doesn't work well for all buildings. I tried making clear and semi opaque windows in the HQ, but the opposite walls disappeared too.

(Should have these "cloned " as new objects soon.)
