Is translucency possible?

[Avimimus]

I've seen some clever skin-hacks (e.g. transparent cellules added to the Sopwith Triplane prototype)!

 

Is it possible to create translucencies as well? Or is there an engine limitation which requires textures to either be opaque or transparent?

 

I've been looking at a lot of photographs of WWI aircraft, and one feature that is quite common is a degree of translucency in the wing cellules. It'd look really neat if it was possible!

In short, nope.

Thanks! That is too be bad, but it is good to know!

 

Maybe they'll upgrade the engine someday.

 

S!
