Transparencies disappear when viewed through other transparencies.

 

It's known as "alpha clash" where the game engine can't figure out the layering order of multiple "alpha" (semitransparent) layers.   So it only renders the most globally 'transparent' layer.   The fix is to use "mask" alphas instead of "blend" alphas, but that treats all pixels that are not 0 (transparent) as 1 (fully opaque) and the textures get blocky. 

 

Newer engines that rely on raytracing do a better job (because every pixel onscreen is assumed to be created by light sources in the scene, and rendered accordingly) but those require high-end RTX-capable graphics cards.  If your card doesn't have the processing power/code/chips to handle RTX, the engine defaults to the older modes.
