Render mesh Enclosure at Arlantis

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi all ,
I wish to render mesh Enclosure (beside Gable covered roof) at Arlantis, but it's seems like a solid wall with mesh patterns on it!! >_<.....it's render all right at "lightworks" when Alpha Channel of the mesh (PNG file) is on.

In Artlantis, the mesh Alpha Channel is on too~~ Just have no idea why the mesh wall still won't see through.

Have I missing something??

Please help!!!

Thanks

I think you went about it the wrong way.

Use dwights method, but, Alt-Click the color in the texture you want to make transparent.

See attached file.

I hope this helps.

hi Justin,
Thank you for your hint,
in fact, I've actually tried to check that box, but not working in both Png. and jpeg file~!! But me never tried Alt-click on texture mapping, I will try that sometimes today.

Cheers
