Just as the title says, the problem lies with the tree's I made in plant life. The tga textures aren't going transparent. Any help would be appreciated.

@Sven B:
Hmm...not really what I was looking for, see the problem I'm having is when I load the csm file, the tga textures aren't going transparent. But when I do say Set Object Transparency objID,flag---it hides about 8/10 of the map. But when I use the tree texture in the demo map with the importer demo, the transparency works.

well after some tinkering with other maps, it turns out the lightmap was causing the problem. By removing the trees from the lightmapping calculation, the problem was solved. It doesn't look as good but I'm short on time
