I want to make the grave at the bottem of reincarnationtarget disappear. I changed all the skinz that the grave uses to be tranparent but it still shows up. Then I opened up the mdl and changed Filtermode Additive to Filtermode Transparent but it wouldnt get rid of the grave. I tried changing each one and i tried making them all transparent but then the ray on top disppears. Anyone kno how i can make the grave transparent but not the rays?

Try changing all of the alpha values of the materials to zero. On materials that have no alpha line, add this:

static alpha 0,

If you're using the "angel" model (can't remember which is which) keep in mind that ribbons also use materials so you want to make sure you *don't* alpha those materials out. Hope that helps.
