Ok, did all that...But I'm still getting the same results as in my previous topic... http://communities.msn.com/_Secure/0NABUQbQS2uTY2DrUVrNSX9Z4VIpCrceMPysvwQ6DUgMA1xbIrYxuSrnmI5AD3MUY85DJtOnkiwEcq0LksuBw/blood1.jpg Notice how the transparency didnt go through?...That is whats goin on...And I cant figure out how to get rid of it... Note: this was done all inside of a box w/ a water texture to it, added quite a few radial lights (also, this still happens when I do every other method of underwater)... thanks for any help
