Hello,
i got a problem. Made a .dds texture with an alpha channel.
In MapScape it looks like this:

InGame it looks like this: (no alpha)

How can i load the map correctly? (It's exported as a .x file)

well, you can't, .x format doesn't hold that information.

You have to name those limbs in mapscape with some special names so you know which are transparent and then when you load the map in dbpro you manualy set those limbs as transparent

Well, there are 2 x files exported. 1 of the normal map, and 1x with the transparent part. (named xyz_transparent.x)

@TheComet

Think you got the images mixed around >.< how about if the map was made in 3DWS... does anyone know if you can name components in that?... might have a look shortly...

well, that's even easier to fix. As comet suggested use set object transparency obj, 2 where obj is object number of xyz_transparent.x
