No transparent feature

[Ponnfar]

The transparent feature on the options menu is available upon the initial start of the of the program. I am able to make a choice, yet no change takes place. Futher, when re-opening the options menu, the transparancy choice is no longer on the menu. I used the "Make Tran.exe" Rob M. suggested to another user in a previous post but have no clue if I used it properly, apparently not. The transparancy feature did work in my 4.5 version.
I am using the 5.0 program downloaded from the site provided.
It is such a cool feature. I would like to have it.
I appreciate any help [].

It may not have anything to do with Hal. Your computer may not support the kind of graphics that Hal needs to be transparent. On both of my laptops Hal can do anything, but on my desktop I can not display the 3D versions of Hal. You video card my be what the problem is.

Thanks for the idea. I am gald to get a response on this.
Well, the 3D features work just fine. Using NVidia's latest card, one of them anyway. Even went to Haptek and am considering their software, it looks like fun.
Can anyone explain how to use the "MakeTrans" feature, that may do the trick.
