I have had Bryce for a while but done nothing fancy with it. I have run into a problem and I am stumped - please help me. I imported an obj file of a plant. The branches are modelled as flat polygons and use transmapped image textures. I have applied the textures using the material lab being careful to tick the "blend transparency option". However, some parts of the plant don't show the proper transparency, others do. I have some branches that look fine, others are black with the image of the texture showing. All branches use the same material. The same object renders fine in Poser 8. I must be doing something wrong in Bryce, but I don't know what. An image of my test render is attached.
