Subject: render backgrounds


TCat ( ) posted Fri, 28 October 2005 at 12:17 PM · edited Tue, 24 December 2024 at 6:55 PM

There are times I will do a render that I want the figure only when I go to PS. When I do a render just on the complete model it defaults to a gray background which I have got to spend a lot of time removeing when in Photoshop. Is there a way to render with a transparent background?

Just save it as a PNG when you go to export the image. You'll have your transparent background then.

Or, save with the "background as black" option in any format, then select and remove in PS. (Works with grey background, too, but most figures have something near enough to grey taht it's hard to adjust the selection specificity to avoid removing them.)

As sindragon says, saving as a png will give your image alpha channels and effectively everything grey or what ever your background colour is will be transparent in photoshop or any other 2D programme that supports channels [basically most programmes]. thefixer, poser coord.

Injustice will be avenged.
