Why is everything not turning transparent....my smoke maps bullet holes...its all stupid....

MY.ALPHA = 100;
MY.FLARE = ON;
MY.TRANSPARENCY = ON:

nothing works its still white or black around the object....is there something i have to call....i missed this its my first time using A6 or something...been using A5 too much.

Thanks in advanced.

Sorry mate. A6 no longer inverts the transparency for an object with flare and transparent flags on.

well then how do i make my sprites transparent?

meh i just got that you can convert to tga....sucks though.

Set the "transparent" flag to on. Set Alpha to a value below 100. -> Should work fine.

transparency dont work too good with bmps and pcx i find the Tga files work pretty good.

I think the problem is that alpha is a percent, not 0-255. In other words, you are setting an 100% alpha, which is fully opaque.
