PRIM ALPHA MODE

Wiki description

Used to specify how the alpha channel of the diffuse texture should affect rendering of a prim’s face.

Examples

llSetPrimitiveParams([ PRIM_ALPHA_MODE, ALL_SIDES, PRIM_ALPHA_MODE_NONE, 0 ]);
llSetPrimitiveParams([ PRIM_ALPHA_MODE, ALL_SIDES, PRIM_ALPHA_MODE_MASK, 130 ]);

Notes

• Note that as with PRIM_NORMAL and PRIM_SPECULAR, setting a custom (i.e. not PRIM_ALPHA_MODE_BLEND) alpha mode on a prim faces causes the linkset to use the new prim accounting system.
• mask_cutoff is not used or stored unless the mode is set to PRIM_ALPHA_MODE_MASK.
• To delete the material from face, set the alpha_mode to PRIM_ALPHA_MODE_BLEND, in addition to clearing PRIM_NORMAL and PRIM_SPECULAR
• If face indicates a face that exists but does not contain a material, the PRIM_ALPHA_MODE return is '[ PRIM_ALPHA_MODE_BLEND, 0 ]'
