Hello =) I have always been having problem using alpha plane transparancies under volumetric lights. I have worked around it in some scenes, but this one I can't. The picture is of an alpha plane and you can clearly see the boarder around it. I have tried all settings, but nothing works, i.e cast no shadows, etc.. Maby Im just to tired to figure it out, but is this a limitation?

LoL!!! Just realised what was the problem! After a last check on the image, I saw that the dark boarder had the reflection of the underlying wood bench. I disabled the "cast shadows" on the bench textur...and it worked!!! Jepp....I am tired =P
