I have yet to receive a workable response to a question I had on the
newsgroup so I'll give it a whirl here. What I want to do is make four
irregular polys and map a sequence on each one on the same screen. No
problem so far. The effect I am looking for is feathered edges on each of
the polys so that the image fades in from black at the edges to a clear
image on the majority of the poly. Sort of like a Photoshop blending. I have
tried using a transparency grid texture with varying grid sizes and falloffs
but everything seems to blend from the center out and negative values are
not the answer for that. Even if I move the center point it only will work
for one side and I need a uniform blend from all sides. There must be a
simple solution for this, isn't there...

thx
