3D Model with semitransparent texture not rendering all faces

[nike4613]

I am making a jar, and I have a good 3d model for it, but some of the faces aren't rendering throuch other faces.

Any help is very appreciated!

I had this problem once. Try making the texture a little bit more opaque and see if it works.

[nike4613]

No go. Didnt work. Ive updated the original post texture.

[RafaMv]

I think you missed the blend function. Try adding something like "GL11.glBlendFunc(sourceFactor, destintationFactor)" after glEnable blend, it should work I guess.

What are the sourceFactor and destinationFactor?

[ShetiPhian]

Here is the frequently used one:

GL11.glBlendFunc(GL11.GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL11.GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);

 

Here is more information on blending:

http://relativity.net.au/gaming/java/Transparency.html

[nike4613]

Thanks, but no luck. It seems to have something to do with how and where I placed them from. I'm goning to try total transparency next.

 

EDIT: Worked.

Hi

 

A general comment about alpha blending is that the order of rendering the faces is very important.  If you render the rear pane alpha first, then the front pane alpha next, it will look different to rendering the front pane alpha first and the back pane alpha second.  This is because of the effects of depth testing, and additionally the way alpha blending calculates the final colour.

 

In your case, when the furthest-away faces are rendered first, then the closest faces are blended over the top, you will see the furthest-away faces.

But if your closest faces are rendered first, when the furthest-away faces get rendered, they are behind the closest faces so they get culled i.e. not drawn at all.  You can see this very clearly in the top screenshot, which looks like it must have rendered left - back - right - front.

You can turn off writing to the depth buffer  using GL11.glDepthMask(false); but the faces still wind up looking different depending on which one is rendered first.

 

I have solved this problem in the past by writing an IBSRH which made sure to render the furthest faces first, by checking the player position relative to the block.
