Is this possible in any Doom port? In EDGE and Legacy at least you get cool transparent stuff (I think it is the most advanced in EDGE) but can this be done to the flash on the weapon firing sprites? If not, maybe that's something that should be worked on in up coming versions.

You can make anything any level of transparencey in EDGE, even frame by frame to make something fade in an out as it animates.

This includes anything in the level, monsters, pickup items, artifacts, and also any weapon sprites (flash or otherwise).

You can (Look at SMMU - Smack My Marine Up)
It just requires some more code and it'd be nice if edge allowed you to set this
eg STATES(FLASH)=XXXX:A:1:LIGHT1:TRANSPARENCY(0.50%);
y'know?

But it does allow that...

You can also set a frame pointer to fade in or out to a certain percentage too.

Check the EDGE 1.25 WIP documentation on the EDGE website: http://edge.sourceforge.net
