I was using Trent''s tutorial on particle engine and I don''t know what happened.. but when I added a md2 loader. The particles now only appear as white.. I don;t know why it stopped changing colors. I suspect it has something to do with a flag that I messed up, that no longer allows the particle engine to color in the flare.tga texture. Any ideas? thanks

Did you turn off blending?

I''m guessing the md2 tutorial uses lighting, and I''m guesssing you didn''t disable ligthing when rendering the particles. (colour information is ignored when lighting is enabled, unless GL_COLOR_MATERIAL is enabled)
