So im tackling a texture pack for a freind, hes a pretty good guy at pixel art so its straight colors. When i finished the pack i hadn't touched the glass and i put it on my WoM client and i cant see through the glass. Does anyone know how to make glass see throughable :biggrin.gif:

You can't edit your terrain in MSPaint because it throws the transparency info away. Try a different program. (Photoshop?)
Currently the terrian textures cannot be transparent. You can only make each pixel completely clear or solid. Nothing in between I'm affraid.
kilagain is correct, pixels in the glass can only be completely clear or completely solid, I tried.

Okay seriously guys, the point of language is to communicate. Using the exact definition is not important so long as the question is understood. I've seen this "translucency/transparency" thing come up in other topics before with thorough argument, and it's a waste of forum space. (Although I do respect your dedication to the English language. Better than butchering it I suppose.)
Because translucency is impossible in Minecraft's engine unless Notch makes some serious changes, (shader support?) it should be considered synonymous with transparency in the context of Minecraft. The real term we're all looking for is partial transparency, like the ice is currently.
More on topic; as people have said, it's either fully opaque or fully transparent, but that's done with image transparency. Photoshop, Paint.net and the GIMP can all do this! :happy.gif: (I'm assuming the ice block's partial transparency is defined in the block data itself, not its texture.)
Ok then, change the question. i have looked and i am almost positive this has been up here before but how do you change the block to be see through? i saw screenshots where stone was compleatly transparent. Anybody know how to do that or where i can find the texture pack or w/e is used to achieve this? It would make minning so much eaiser

Quick fix! Thanks for pointing that out Jay. Got the words mixed up :tongue.gif:

The cake is NOT a lie!
Let's not ignore this man, as it's true.
After the snow update I saw that since the ice was partially transparent it would work on glass, too.
It doesn't.
OP states he wants translucence in the title, which is impossible, but actually wants transparency, which is possible.
Meanwhile...
He's also got it wrong.
1: Opaque
2: Translucent
3: Transparent
Do note that we don't have partial transparency, though. Either fully transparent or fully opaque.
Thank you, Jay. I nearly had a breakdown reading this topic o . o
Definition of transparent
Definition of translucent

Translucency is impossible on textures that were not already translucent, such as water.
Full transparency is perfectly possible on all terrain textures.
Everyone was using bad terminology, started by the OP using the wrong term in the title, but Jay summed it up nicely.
