See Through Units

Well, I'm on a roll tonight and I have another question. I did some searching on the forums and I wasn't able to find any resources on this topic.

Is it possible to make a unit transparent (ethereal) without actually giving it the ethereal ability. Some sort of alpha channel I've missed?

Thanks.

You want it ethereal without the ability? or just make it transparent?

If you just want transparancy, it can be done easily with a simple trigger. Something about coloring, in which you alter the units' color by reds, greens blues, and alpha. If I was at home right now, I'd check for you what's it called. For now, just know it's possible.

if you add addalpha to the material field in the mdl then it will become transperant. (Check the ghostly archmage to see what i mean)

The trigger is: Animation - Vertex Coloring. You can set color and transparency there. Set red, green and blue to values 100% and transparency to what you want.

Well done, you just ruined my excuse to go home from work early. :'(

LOL, sorry.

Just to not making this reply this short, could anyone tell me why the "insert link", "insert image", "color", etc... options doesnt work for me? Any ideas?
