Hi all.

I’m trying to apply a transparent PNG image with 24 bit on a BitmapMaterial but this does not work. I tried to use the property diffuseMethod.alphaThreshold but transparency does not use 24 bits alpha channel.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

It’s been working fine for me after discovering the alphaThreshold method, though there’s no semi-transparent pixels, the threshold being the cutoff between 100% transparent and 100% opaque. Would be nice with semi-transparency.

Response myself.

It´s simple:

BitmapMaterial.transparent=true;

you could also try:
material.diffuseMethod.alphaThreshold = 1;

Wow, that’s an old thread.

These days you would use alphaBlending = true for semi-transparency, although that has it’s own trade offs.
