SetEntityRenderColor TF2 Alpha

Arg! · **Author**

Im trying to use SetEntityRenderColor to set the alpha on a player to make them invisible. It the Alpha thing doesnt seem to do anything at all, can anyone offer any suggestions on this?

Code:

    SetEntityRenderMode(client, RENDER_TRANSCOLOR);
    SetEntityRenderColor(client, 255, 255, 255, 128);

Those lines, 128 is the alpha. Here's what I used to restore:

Code:

    SetEntityRenderMode(client, RENDER_NORMAL);
    SetEntityRenderColor(client, 255, 255, 255, 255);

Works in CSS

Straight from serverdefense:

Code:

new red = GetConVarInt(cvarSPRed);
        new green = GetConVarInt(cvarSPGreen);
        new blue = GetConVarInt(cvarSPBlue);
        new alpha = GetConVarInt(cvarSPAlpha);
        
        SetEntityRenderMode(index, RENDER_TRANSCOLOR);
        SetEntityRenderColor(index, red, green, blue, alpha);

Works perfect

@ Grey
you were right

it was my fault. I used thirdperson perspective to check it out but changing alpha has no effect to thirdperson.
