I think you need to create a .shader_transparent_glass tag to do that.

Well how do you apply a shader to just certain polygons on a model..i think thats where im getting confused...do you all know how? (Ex: so I can just make a panel or the floor of a room glass so the objects I create under then are visible)

There seems to be a special material name for making weather effects.

+weatherpoly

My guess is you would make a polygon in your map (im not sure if it needs to be a box or plane, or whatever). You would apply a material named +weatherpoly to that polygon. You would then create a structure bsp using tool.exe.

Open the structure bsp tag in guerilla and look for the weather section. I would expect something to be there, you just need to set it up with the appropriate tags.

Again, this is just a guess. If someone could try this out and tell us if it works, that would be cool.

Yea, that is probably it but the weather tags seem extremely complicated.
