..im wondering why this code working just fine for mask(flag 4), while alpha do nothing (flag 2)..note that when alpha is textured over single mesh, its working while in structure like this, not at all..mask working both ways.. SAlpha=LoadTexture("Example_Alpha.dds",2) ;SAlpha=LoadTexture("Example_Mask.dds",4) For Entity.Level_Structure=Each Level_Structure If Entity\Name$=Target$ EntityTexture Entity\ID,SAlpha,0,0 End If Next

I don't know if it is related but I've found that on some machines flag 2 alpha doesn't work if it is not combined with flag 1 (color) when a texture is created. Have you tried it with flag "1 + 2"?
