I know it isn't suppossed to be possible but someone said it was but I am still not sure. I am trying to get a transparancy on an object with some gloss. Apply texture to highlight or not doesn't work. The only way I have found to make it possible is to have black in the texture or to use the transparancy as the texture map and color it using the material colors. Is there something that can be done? Thanks

Hi Ghostofmacbeth, Try using just the Transparency parameters. The highlight will still show up. cheers, dr geep ;=]

Thanks but I am trying to get rid of the gloss on the transparant part. I am messign with the M3 Cloak and I want to loose the hood part but I want the cloak to be slightly glossy but not the invisible hood..

Then make the hood part of the texture 100% black.That's the only way.

... or ... Use the "Grouping Tool" to make the hood a separate group. Then you can control the hood and the cloak separately, no? cheers, dr geep ;=]

Yeah .. I was trying to have some versitility in the cloak but that might be the only way (texture) Can't really group it because you need to encode things or something or other .. Plus the grouping tool stinks ;)
