Anybody know what's causing this phenomenon ?
I much prefer the top view, of course.
It's only shown me this beautiful view for the last 2 days.
Prior to that, it was always the ugly black boxes.

Anybody know what's going on here ?

in the editor? no idea man sorry.

You changed the .spr file in between, right ?
My guess is that it has something to do with the texture transparency method (alpha, additive, etc). Maybe Hammer likes one and dislikes the other.

Re: Hammer Rendering Sprites ???
 

It has something to do with the type of sprite and rendermode you have selected.

Normal additive sprites will have a black border when set to normal and an invisible border when set to additive.

Alphatest sprites will always have a black border in hammer.

Re: Hammer Rendering Sprites ???
 

They're ALL alpha sprites.
The only difference was opening Hammer on a different occasion.
No change in sprites, at all.
