I made 3 shitty textures that got included with DeleD under GLASS or something. Use them, and set them to alpha blend.

Modulate and Alpha are two different things, and get two very different results.

You can't do it like that up to now. You have to specify an alpha channel in the image file and save it as .png or .tga, then use it as a texture in DeleD.

You have to open the material editor and find them in there. Click on the funny looking square icon that doesn't give any indictation that it's to edit materials, and you will find the glass section in there. It has a few files that have alpha channels.

You need to save the file as a TGA or a PNG because they can have an alpha channel. Not sure how PS handles that, but in PSP you make a mask, then save the mask to the alpha channel.
