"Translucent" transparency and additive transparency are actually both additive. The only difference is that "translucent" multiplies the background by one minus the sprite's alpha, and "additive" multiplies the background by one.

The "multiplicative" transparency in Quake 3 works the same way, and is named as such. That's where I got the info from.

That still doesn't make it correct:

red * blue = black

red * alpha + blue * (1-alpha) = some shade of magenta

It's clearly not even nearly the same!

Are you still talking?

I didn't give any god damn formulas, I was explaining in plain English the basic differences between the two methods. If you want a more complete explanation, why don't you try searching for my older posts on the subject, jackass?

Better yet, cut the fucking trolling and go do something worthwhile.

Ok, you moron, you invited it:

YOU ARE A TOTAL RETARD!

Frankly, I have been annoyed by your attitude several times recently. For no good reason you are insulting other people on this forum and creating a really hostile atmosphere.

What gives you the right to call others names who do something you don't approve.? Each and every time recently that somebody here did something you didn't appove, ZDoom-forum-policeman HotWax appears and starts trading insults. If you are in a bad mood please choose another place to let off steam.

(Let the flamewar begin!

Yeah, I'm going to have to take Graf's side on this one.

All too often HotWax accuses others of being trolls and spammers, when he's doing the exact same sort of thing.

And so this justifies turning into a complete anal retard in an attempt to make me look stupid?

Grow the hell up.

I didn't start this!

Ok, RandomLag.

And BTW, since the matter being posted here apparently is totally intentional how about moving this thread to Closed Bugs and actualling closing it before it gets totally out of hand?

The only reason why this is getting out of hand is because you, graf, are letting it. If hotwax is bothering you, retaliating is just going to bring on more retaliation.

I'm not getting on to anybody, because I have no qualms, but to be honest, Hotwax didn't do any of that policing and trolling on this post until you stepped in. Granted, he does do that in other posts and he has his own striong beleifs that he's stubborn on sticking to, but that's his own perogative.

Hotwax only gives hell if someone is being stupid, which is fine. IMHO, you are both intelligent people stooping down to a really low level by continuing this "I hate you more than you hate me" buisness. If anybody needs to grow the fuck up it's both of you!

.

I'm not mad or anything, to be honest I don't realy care. I'm just saying what I think... Continue for all I care, who am I but some lowley poster. I'm just saying that you are really both as bad as each other...

Don't defend this idiot.

First he tells someone incorrect information
Then he starts insulting me when I correct him.

Sadly he's acted like that several times recently and the really unfortunate thing is that he can be certain that nothing will happen to him.

HotWax · Post by **HotWax** » Sat Jul 03, 2004 10:59 am

You've done an awful lot of "correcting" lately, haven't you, Graf? It seems every time you can find a way to nitpick a post of mine, there you are pointing out any flaws and proving how much an idiot I really am, doesn't it?

Jesus, and all just because I called your chaingun cheat a bug. Get over it.

i agree with lexus that you both are acting like fools, you both need to stop...

and graf, you started this argument, not hotwax...

Frankly, I think that this forum would be a better place if HotWax and Graf stopped arguing non-stop for no good reasonification.

Post by **Graf Zahl** » Sat Jul 03, 2004 2:27 pm

This has nothing to do with the chaingun but it has to do with this:
