Hey all, First off, thanks for all the help you've given me in my quest to find a substitute for max. I'm liking Vue more each day, but still have some questions. I rendered out the image above and really liked it. I saved it as a tiff, but an alpha was not included. I see that there are two other images rendered, an alpha and depth. I assume you have to save these seperately. Am I correct? Also, The alpha includes the ground plane. If I wanted to remove that, is there any way to do so? I tried removing the ground plane, but that changed the lighting as the abient light then came from below too. I want to keep the existing lighting, but not have the ground plane rendered in the alpha. How do I do that? Oh,yeah, and cameras. Can I only have one, or is there a way to add another> Thanks Dragontales ps - what is the depth render used for?
