Hi all, whats the best way to change materials on say Vue Trees, or, alternatively, use that tree material on other objects? I'm not sure how to manipulate them... -Brian

Awesome stuff! Thanks! -Brian

Hey Guitta, Have you had any troubles with the way your vegetation materials render in Vue4? I haven't been able to get rid of the outline that shows up around each leaf whenever I use a custom material that I've created. E-On says that I need to turn off the anti-aliasing on the transparency map, but that doesn't seem to help. Any ideas? -SMT

Smallspace, I'm not sure I understand. What do you mean with custom material ? A bitmap color pic and the corresponding tranparency bitmap ? Would you mind to put here one sample file and its transparency map, so that I can get it into my 'puter and try ? I don't have this problem with my material, created in Vue 3 or 4. Guitta

Sure, Guitta, but it will have to wait until I get home tonight, some time around 6 p.m. Pacific time. -SMT

Steve, I have found that if the actual trans map is anti aliasedblurred anytime during it's production then it will show a white border....like you, I found that turning off anti aliasing in the material editor did not make much differance. Open the transmap in your paint program and have a look at the edge between black and white at a high zoom...if you see any greys, that is your problem. Just convert the image to two colours (black and white) and that should sort it out. Cheers

That's extremely cool! Here's to Cheers! (Hope it works!) -SMT

Fingers crossed...let us know how you get on :) Cheers
