Need help creating a simple white box...

[lil apex]

Hey guys,

Can someone help me create a 256x256x3 white model?

I was using this tutorial to create a model. As you can see, I made the box, added a standard white texture, then exported using the DeX script to generate the .mdl, deleted the comments and converted it into an MDX with this "MDLX" converter.

However, the imported model doesn't work (it shows nothing). Why? If it's due to step 4-8. can someone help me with it?

How come I can't change the model's transparency with this?

• Animation - Change (Triggering unit)'s vertex coloring to (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%) with 0.50% transparency

no idea
i tried a few things and they didn't work
edit: re-read the trigger description, it's 0 to 100 with 0 being visible and 100 being invisible
you're putting in 0.50%, put 50% instead

Fixed it by changing the "material" lines (converted back and forth with the MDLX converter):

Materials 1 {
    Material {
        Layer {
            FilterMode Blend,
            static TextureID 0,
            static Alpha .5,
        }
    }
}

Also changed all those 0.05123 pivot etc. points to 0.0000. Thanks again bro!
