i have made one of the ( i think) most valuable discoverys to mappers ever. i have figured our how to have a brush with tranparency on a mover and keep its transparency!!!!!!!
if you want to know can you PM me, i dont want to tell everyone untill i release it in a map first. if you want it before then then just PM me.
its not acually that hard, i figured it out durring a test, my mistake 
EDIT:
okay heres how to do it
NOTE: you have to have all your keyframed brushes fused together and only one brush (no objects or multiple brushes)
first make a solid brush and make sure "is detail" is checked, then go apply your semi-transparent texture to it, and build. next go to group mode, keyframe the brush, put your keyframes where you want as normal and set the properties as normal. then go to brush mode, select the brush, go to top view. click on "Clip". put your 2 dots in to form the line to clip along, but make sure the dots arnt in the brush, but the line goes through the brush. then click "Cut Brush" now it wont do anything because the brush is a mover, but when you go in game, the mover will keep its transparency, as long as you dont edit the brush's faces or verticies after this point.
hope this helps, ive seen alot of threads of people wanting to know how to do this, now you know! |

Are you trying to piss off the Red Faction community here, with your "I know something but I ain't gonna tell yah" attitude.
If you think you discovered something and you want to post about it than write what you did and how you did it, else.. Don post or make a topic about it! |

I'm not saying that i want it that bad, or want it.
I'm just asking whats up with the attitude of: I discovered something but i ain't gonna tell yah, thats kinda lame. and why do you want to write an tutorial on how you did "it" and post it on red tech and than link to it here. why not just post here what you have done. |

Well you have made a beleiver out of me.. who would have guessed other than Goober himself that clipping the brush would allow movers with transparency!
Very good work Goob.. you have to be proud of yourself here. |

Yeah i got it working first try, i would have never found this out alone considering this was the first time i clicked on Clip
Bugs
.: Cant see players through the mover
.: Bullets go straight through the mover
Maybe someone will further develope the discovery |
