Just:
vgui::surface()->DrawSetColor(255, 255, 255, alpha);
Should work.
Here's my .vmt:
"UnlitGeneric"
{
"$basetexture" "hud\markers\marker_stopwatch_green"
"$translucent" 1
"$no_fullbright" 1
"$ignorez" 1
"$nolod" 1
"$vertexalpha" 1
}
vertexalpha and translucent might be the cause. Ensure those are correct.
If that doesn't help, might be a problem with the .vtf itself. Maybe a
setting wasn't set when creating it, but it's probably the former.
