Transparent objects in Buldozer?

[gsleighter 0]

When I preview my model in Buldozer, most of the model is see through, with the exception of a couple of faces. Does anybody know what could cause that to happen?

Screenshots of your buldozer window would be helpful.

When you say it's transparent, do the faces that you can see though look red in 02, or is the model completely textured and you can see though the textures?

If parts are red, the few faces that aren't transparent are ones that you have selected in the O2 viewports. The model will only appear fully opaque if either no faces are selected, or all faces are selected.

IIRC the problem of see-through textures is caused by ignoring the texture naming conventions. You need to add the _co suffix to the name of the diffuse textures' .paa file and possibly make a .rvmat for the model too. See here:

I must have had something selected, I hit deselect and it's fully opaque now. Thanks for the quick response, I thought I'd broken my tank.

You've got 'selection masking' set in your buldozer menu in O2PE... most of the time I have mine 'disabled'... have a look under your buldozer menu... you'll find it...
