Jan-29-02, 03:13 PM (EST) "Please help with TSM and transparency" I have TSM and Adope Photoshop Elements. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make transparency. I am building a grain elevator and was wanting to make the numerous handrails with transparency to save on polys. Could one of you awesome experts give me some directions. Thanks in advance.

Jan-30-02, 07:00 PM (EST) 1. "RE: Please help with TSM and transparency" For your textures you must you files in .tga-format.
In this file you can mask out all part you don't want to see.Save your .tga with the mask included.The part which will be covered from this texture must have Material "TransNorm" (if you want full transparancy).Select your part and use F2-Key. There is a button with "Material" on it. At this point you can set the "Material" of the part (Normally it is set to "SolidNorm" ).I hope this hint will help you !Tony
