      Ok, so I have another update. I noticed once I add some object with standard C4D material with enabled transparency, all transparent objects (including those using my material) displays correctly. If I remove the c4d material (or turn off transparency in view panel settings), it starts drawing objects in the wrong order again. So I guess I need to enable "something" in C4D to draw transparenct objects correctly...
      So, does anybody know what is to be called / enabled?

        Hello,

        sorry for the late answer. We talked with the developers about this and indeed this is currently a bug in the MaterialData class. We hope to fix this soon so custom materials will work properly.

        Best wishes,
        Sebastian

              Hello,

              since R17 there is MaterialData::HasEditorTransparency() that has to be implemented to inform the editor if the material uses transparency.

              Best wishes,
              Sebastian

                  it work but... when i register my materialdata with PLUGINFLAG_MATERIAL_GLIMAGE_WITH_ALPHA, the InitGlImage() is constantly called even i do nothing in the material or in the editor.

                    Hello,

                    off the top of my head I have no idea. Could you open a new thread on the topic with the relevant sections of your source code?

                    Best wishes,

                            it seems that currently (R18 SP1) there is some bug with the PLUGINFLAG_MATERIAL_GLIMAGE_WITH_ALPHA flag. This should be fixed for the next service pack.

                            best wishes,
                            Sebastian
