Invisible lamp - Making it invisible - FlawlessHappiness - 08-25-2014

Hello.

This is an editted post since I figured my problem should be something else instead.

Since billboards cannot be set inactive and active I attached it to a lamp.
Then I took a .dds file, deleted all colors from it, and tied it with the material editor.

The picture in the material editor is blank, meaning the candle should be invisible.

But opening it in the model editor, and in the level editor, it's still visible.

Why is that?


EDIT: Ok, it seemed like having multiple files named the same thing but in different folders was a bad idea.
Ok so the candle is now invisible. New problem! It's not appearing in game, even though it's in the editor

EDIT2: Ok I was being stupid. You also have to have the files in your custom story!
Good new! It works!

Thanks to me Tongue

Sorry to make this unnecessary thread.
