I don't know if it's supported, but I couldn't find it so here is my request:

when I make a .tga or .png textue, with alpha channels and make it alphablend, the texture's ussually go very wrong (like you can see other parts of the model trough some parts, which makes it look weird.) Now I know that an alpha map can solve this, it's just a black and white image of the same texture, the black indicates what needs to be transparant and the white not.

Maybe handy If I could set it as a second layer for a texture, and then set it as alpha map?

Thanks

Theres a better way, the alpha-test, it uses the textures alpha channel to compare it with a reference value, every texel that is below this reference value will not be rendered to the depth and color buffers.

You see that in most games that render grass. The result is not perfect but you dont need to sort polygons.

I've had the same problem with both PNG and TGA myself, they never seem to render out properly.
One way that I found around this problem is to convert the texture to DDS using DDS converter 2.0
Which for me seems to work great. hope that helps

hey, thanks , although it doesn't work if it's the same texture on the same object....

EDIT: and I lose alot of detail in my texture..
