Saving transparencies
I'm having a problem getting maya to save transparencies in a targa when rendering, i've never had this problem and as far as i know i haven't changed any of the relevent settings.
Thanks in advance

My graphics card has burnt out and am i right in thinking that its the card that will handle the alpha channel for each pixal while rendering.
Anyone know if i'm right?
Shame its a bloody laptop or i'd just change the card

Don't put the transparency into the colour map, leave that area as black and then use a different image (greyscale) for the transparency on the shader.Alan
