Hi

I'm having trouble making the water transparent in GLQuake. I've
downloaded the Id1.zip and vispatch.zip files from
http://www.planetquake.com/gldojo/  and ran the batch file
(install.bat), which appears to work fine, what am I meant to do after
this batch has finished? Cos the water is definately not transparent
when I checked after running the patch. Yeah, I'm confused etc... But
someone please enlighten me on what I am missing or not doing right.
TIA!

You need to set r_wateralpha to .3
Actually, you can set it to any value between 0 and 1. 0 is totally
transparent, and 1 is completely opaque. Experiment to find the level you
like best. Just pull down the console and type in this command:
r_wateralpha .3

Hope this helps.
