Transparent textures [SOLVED]
Hey,
Like the new forum and I hope this means we'll be seeing something interesting soon? Wink

I thought I'd share a bug I've been having for a while now (Since May 2010, to the best of my memory). Basically, I end up with transparent textures whenever I export to .tif from wings, as it adds an alpha channel to it. I don't know if it's intentional, but if it is, would it be possible for an option to turn it off? I'm using Win7.

The workflow goes like this.

1. Make cube
2. Unwrap cube
3. Create texture with the dialog set to draw background and draw edges

4. Hit tab to switch to shaded mode and bam, it's transparent

5. Exporting it as .tif and opening it and you'll find an alpha channel with faces set to black, edges to white


My workaround for a while now has just been to use a photoshop action that removes the alpha, which makes it bearable, but it can still be annoying sometimes.

Anyway, love the program, I use it every day in my work (making games for a small game studio). Together with ManifoldLab, I can't do pretty much anything I need Smile
