>> Then render with alpha ON optionally with alpha split ON. Does that make >> sense? Your right it doesn't. I spoke to soon. But I did eventually get it right. I was trying to get a good alpha channel (not all white) from tga's off the PAR (24 bit). If I rendered the tga's through VP and turned alpha on in the render dialog the alpha channel would be all white. But if I rendered the tga's through vp with alpha queue active and alpha on in the render dialog there would be a good grey scale alpha channel. I had to check it out in Photoshop to be sure becouse if I did a alpha split on the same 32 bit file the alpha channel would be white again which is beyond me but check it out this really does work and it's so fundamental. -=Mike=- Ps I just did a some composites in razor to be triple sure and it works.
