Blending issues

Sounds somewhere in the realm of 'peculiar'. What blending operation is being used at the time? Have you tried to decipher the problem by attempting different blending operations to see if one in particular is bringing on the not-showing-up behavior?

Perhaps even poke some code our way to see if there's a subtle mistake in the code that myself (or ideally someone more experienced than I!) can pick out and bring your code to render-ition. ;)

You can say that again. Zoinks!

Like i said I tried several different ones. One of the models has a group that actually shows, and blends correctly based on the operation, but the rest of it's groups and the other models simply do not show. They DO however obscure objects behind them.

the only things that seem applicable are my pixel format and render loop. I'll post them later.

Do you sort the polys?
typek

disable: culling, depth-test and depthmask.
enable blending then render a few frames and post a screenshot. [smile]

here's the regular:



and with blending on, depth mask to false, and culling disabled:

can you post a screenshot showing the blending problem u are talking about?
