>> opacity mapping fails PMJI, but I've run across a few of the "gotchas". I haven't looked at your sample, but try these… 1. Make certain in your 3ds.set file that you set "NEW-SUBTRACTIVE-TRANSPARENCY = OFF". It may be ON as a default and not giving you 100% transparency. 2. Verify that your map has 0,0,0 at the transparent areas. 3. Try the same map in the shininess mapping slot to prevent any specular highlights from appearing on the transparent areas.
