Hi boozyflooze, I havent tried this before so I went for it. It worked for me. Win98, Carrara 1.01 and Paint Shop Pro 6.0. I set up 3 spheres in a scene. Went into the Render room and set the file format to TIFF. Then went into G-Buffers and selected Mask. I rendered the image and save the TIFF to disk. Fired up PSP and opened the TIFF file. Loaded the Mask from the Alpha Channel and it seemed to work fine. I basicaly got a cutout of the spheres. Is that what you tried? It doesnt do it like Bryce. Bryce gives you a Grey scaled rendered image to use as a mask...at least for Distance masks it does. Looks like Carrara puts the mask in the files Alpha Channel for you. Let me know if you are still having problems. Clint
