MDT description

This property is used to change the color and transparency of an effect over time. The values are in terms of "time/r/g/b/a", each separated by a "|". The TimeToLive property says how long the object will actually live. See the Percentage Series page for an example. The r/g/b is the color of the object, with 255/255/255 white, 255/0/0 red, and 0/0/0 black. The alpha is how opaque the effect object is, a value from 255 (fully opaque) to 0 (fully transparent). The color and alpha is then linearly interpolated between the colors and alphas set for the given times.

Additional Description

According to one test, the minimum transparency before a texture becomes fully transparent is 9, which means 0 through 8 is effectively the same. As of this writing, it has not been tested on other properties with a transparency setting, but I expect it may also be the case for all of them.
