3DS max & Alpha Channel

[Seldoon182]

This monrning I was working on a model and needed to render a scene with transparency. First and foremost to continue my work I tried to check tips around the internet and nothing helped... This is pretty usefull to texture model such as fences, handrails, hairs !

Use a black/white mask!

black = invisible

white = solid

what about alpha channel from tga?

[Vinny Testaverde]

there is a option called "Mono channel output" in the bitmap map properties, check "Alpha" for the map in the opacity slot, for tga, tifs and pngs etc

hope that helps
