Hey .
So ive seen a few tutorials on how to make the textures transparent using the alpha layer etc...
So i tried .. But the parts that were supposed to be transparent display as black ..

Am i doing something wrong or is the transparency not even an option in toribash texturing anymore ?

It does not work anymore. I believe if you turn shaders off it works, I am not 100% positive so I could be wrong.

This is correct. Transparent textures are possible if you have shaders disabled, with shaders on the transparent parts are changed to black. An example of this is Judd666; just dl him, lp him to tori or uke, and turn shaders on or off to see for yourself.

Dont worry, you arent doing anything wrong - if the parts come up as black with shaders on then you have done it correctly.

ah .. damn. That's really unfortunate..

okay , thanks for letting me know.

I yhink there is a rule like 70% of the texture has to be visible or somthing like that.
U can also make them via photoshop, with an empty layer that u save as a .png image.
