Thanks for the feedback. I played around, and couldn’t get the odd behavior on transparent spheres. Could you send me the dat file, and also let me know if you have tranparent sorting turned on? Also, I assume that you don’t get the weirdness when you turn off primitive substitution; is this correct?

Also, while it sounds odd, could you try turning off stud textures if they’re one? (They don’t look on, but it’s hard to tell on black.)

Thanks.

Thanks Travis,

i have tested different settings, the wierding appear only if primitive substitution AND specular highlight are on, then it affects any transparent sphere primitive. another simple workaround is to use LDView 2.1

that may be a bug in my OpenGL software. if you can’t reproduce it then it’s not an LDView bug.

a trans-white towball is a perfect example, the wierdness is not without some beauty:

(...) Thanks. I didn't have specular on, and turning it on gave me the same problem (at least at work; hopefully it will at home also). I'll do what I can to see what's up and fix it. --Travis (20 years ago, 1-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
