Is there anyway to fade a object from invisable to 100% visable without having to ghost the object.

Sure there is:



You just have to play around with the alpha part of the colour. That's what that '(rgb(255,255,255) && 0xffffff) + (i << 24)' nonsense does.

I have working with this code and trying to fit it around what I am after but have been unable to do so. What I am looking to do is have a object fade from 100% fade (Invisable) to 0% fade (Visable) depending on your distance away from the object. What I would like to have is somthing like this : Using the intersect object command I get a value of lets say 1000 (Being 1000 units from the object to the camera) and I have a variable that works as a percentage for the fading of the object. I then go 1000 / 10 (a distance of 1000 being were I would like the object to start to become visable) this should give me a value of 100 which I then use as the value for the fading of the object. If I then am at a distance of lets say 634 then the fade value will be 63.4%. would a system like this be posible using your method.
