You just need to get a transmap (which of course comes with purchased texture maps usually). Most of the DAZ and R'osity store texture items comes with texture, bump map, and trans maps, and they usually have MAT files that will automatically place all the maps for you (as well as some other nice things.) As far as freebies go, try doing a search for "transmap" or transparency map. I'm sure someone else on here reading this post will know specifically where you can get some free trans maps for Mike. -Tim
