Does anyone know if VBe supports alpha channels for other than straight transparency?
I need to set up materials so the user can change the color with the image serving as an overlay texture and/or bump map. Currently I can only get full transparency maps like chainlink fence and such.
Curiously the VBe manual says that alpha channels are only supported with BMP, TGA and TIF files but I am getting the same results with these types as I am with native PSD (Photoshop) files.
I have only tried this on Mac so far. Is there a difference on Windows?
Thanks for the quick reply Karl. I was afraid that was the answer. My client will be quite disappointed. I'll see if I can get any word out of GS on the subject.
