The water texture is drawn with some transparency. I don't have any details about how that can de done, though. -- Jorge Van Hemelryck ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel

As they are drwan we draw to the stencil buffer as well. And then we draw the water with activated stencil buffer, so that the water won't overwrite the lights (but z-Buffer drawing must be enabled...)
