Transparent Armor Textures: Is it possible?

1st Official Post

    I have a very HD skin (1024 x 512). I am thinking about making my chest look like it is glowing like the power core of a Mr. Tony Stark. However, I would like to make a HD IC2 texture pack to go with it. I need to now if I can make the front of the chestplate transparent. That way when I put IC2 armor on, I look like Iron Man.


    P.S. If Sentimel, the Gravisuit Addon maker sees this, is it possible with the Gravi Chestplate? I am totally making the Gravisuit look like the War Machine if its possible. (Now were to find a mod that adds a shoulder mounted Gattling Gun?)

    Complete transparency is possible, but not half Transparency (RGBa). I tried it and it just ignores Alphavalue when its not 255.

    Ok, thanks. Thats what I was looking for. I can just make the desired pixels fully transparent and have the pixels on my skin show instead.
