Good tutorial for transparent textures? - Postby ShadowRunner » 28 May 2012, 12:54


What tutorial did you use for making transparent textures? I am having fail at making them transparent when importing.

I need to make some sheets with transparent textures of bicycles, probably add saddle and handlebars as brushes. (To be honest when I was in Tai Pei, everyone uses scooters, but Hengsha is full of bicycles)


Also I need to make the Alice Gardens Palm Tree neon sign, again probably a sheet with transparent texture is the only way.

after texturing them ...
right click ... select all ... adjacent(something like that) sides ...
then right click and transparent ...
then make the red box bigger ... that button which selects it .. then create the glass mover :]....

No no, I believe he means having parts of a texture transparent (Such as between the bars of a fence for example).

It's not something I've tried myself so I can honestly say I have zero expertise in that field =(

Do you want to make masked textures?
If you use Photoshop, make the masked parts transparent (the best is if you set it as alpha)
Thwn convert he picure into palettized
Select the last color on he palette, set it to everything u want (I usually use purple)
Then Select/Load selection
Select he alpha channel
Fill the selection with the color u previously selected
And save
I hope everything is correct, I'm on phone and I dont know every functions name
I'll make a video later anyway
