Happens with a lot of vehicle windows aswell and has been there since OFP and even VBS1. Yet some addons in OFP manage to have this problem fixed and we find it back again in ArmA lol.

Its an alpha-sorting bug which is inherent in the texture formats.

Whether addons (or official content) have the problem is a mix of luck and purpose. That is you can sort the alpha levels as much as possible in the addon, but it still might not be compatible with (i.e. will "hide") other objects in the game.

Its something which can be prevented to an extent, but never totally cured.

Use the bug thread (http://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard311/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=64;t=54855) please for reporting bugs.

Or better yet use the Community Wiki bug page (http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Armed_Assault:_Bugs_List) to report the issue along with clear reproduction. That's the only place that it's really feasible to makes reports where and how BIS can use them.


And don't forget you should only report bugs/problems with 1.02, we have no interest in reports from people who are not updating their ArmA.
