[image] No matter how high I set the opacity it still does not work. The material will let through light but not anything else. I would like to be able to vaguely see things behind it. This is a translucent material btw.

The opacity needs to be less than 1 to let anything through… I don’t know if that radial gradient node is helping.

Thanks. This makes it fully transparent. The Radial Gradient is to get a blurry effect. Spiral blur does not work in Ue4 (at least not with lighting). It does work well in Ue5 though.

It should be fully opaque at 1.

Yes. The problem is, I would like it somewhat transparent but not fully. Under 1 it is fully transparent and above it is only somewhat transparent. It is not fully opaque because of the radial gradient and translucent blend mode

What about this? [image] [image]

This is what it looks like for me at 1 opacity [image] This is at 0 opacity [image] As you can see, things behind it are not visible in opacity 1, but the blue light still shines through There is no inbetween, only opacity on or off

The material graph is a bit shot, I think. You don’t want to be using emissive. Also the fact that it’s a circle mask is not helping. What about noise mask I used up there, or this texture from the engine folder [image] gives [image]

Thank you for this, so I tried it and it looks like this [image] Honestly can’t tell if I’m getting any blur effect? And this is without the material instance (a little “blurry” effect, I think) [image] My idea would be to acheive an effect similar to this [image] Also thank you for replying,…
