0 Trophies and Medals Sjef61 2,314 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 (edited) Hi Ter160 It is the same question as you ask here https://simtogether.com/forums/topic/402-create-transparencies-like-protective-glass-for-luminaires-and-streetlights/#comment-1908 I just saw that I had used the wrong Day Glass picture there. I just adjusted it. This is the right picture for glass during the day You need two texture slots with the same texture with shader TrainGlassfx Edited September 14, 2020 by Sjef61 Link to comment https://simtogether.com/forums/topic/412-create-transparent-texture-with-paintnet/#findComment-1962 Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Trophies and Medals Ter160 4 Posted September 14, 2020 Author Share Posted September 14, 2020 Do both textures have to have the same name or does it not matter? On the other hand I need to get clean transparent glass textures Link to comment https://simtogether.com/forums/topic/412-create-transparent-texture-with-paintnet/#findComment-1967 Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Trophies and Medals Sjef61 2,314 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 The second texture is a dummy texture but must be exist. For transparent glass you can use a total black texture. That is 100% transparent With Photoshop you can adjust the transparency (Alpha Channel) 2 ready to use DDS glas texture examples 2 examples glas with alpha adjust.zip Use fore Glass Not compressed Alpha DDS Paint.net Link to comment https://simtogether.com/forums/topic/412-create-transparent-texture-with-paintnet/#findComment-1968 Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Trophies and Medals Sjef61 2,314 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 (edited) You make no transparent textures. you can only change the alpha channel to make it More or less transparent. The Type of shader does this. As explained earlier.

You DON"T make transparant glass with paint! Glass is a normal texture.

0 Trophies and Medals Sjef61 2,314 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 (edited) It does't matter. More important is that you export DDS like this as i mentiond before.

0 Trophies and Medals Ter160 4 Posted September 24, 2020 Author Share Posted September 24, 2020 I did what you told me from Paint.net and it doesn't export igs or xml to RW in blueprint editor 2, why?

0 Trophies and Medals Sjef61 2,314 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 (edited) I have already indicated to you that you should give me more information. I give you also a lot of information. For example a picture of the error message when exporting your IGS Fort this TrainGlassfx shader you have to fill in Slot 1 and Slot 2 (Same texture) Edited September 24, 2020 by Sjef61 Link to comment https://simtogether.com/forums/topic/412-create-transparent-texture-with-paintnet/#findComment-2156 Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Trophies and Medals Ter160 4 Posted September 24, 2020 Author Share Posted September 24, 2020 (edited) My problem is with Blender 2.83, I have put a transparent cystral glass texture, I don't know what I can do to solve the error, since the export to IGS, it was done perfectly, I suppose that this error is the configuration you told me to export the texture transparent to dds with paint.net Edited September 24, 2020 by Ter160 Add screenshots Link to comment https://simtogether.com/forums/topic/412-create-transparent-texture-with-paintnet/#findComment-2157 Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Trophies and Medals Sjef61 2,314 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 (edited) Glass texture is NOT transparant. It is black (fore white glas) or colord as mine orange texture.

0 Trophies and Medals Ter160 4 Posted September 24, 2020 Author Share Posted September 24, 2020 It is that I am confused, I think that the failure is the configuration that you told me to save it and export it to the .dds format Link to comment https://simtogether.com/forums/topic/412-create-transparent-texture-with-paintnet/#findComment-2159 Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Trophies and Medals Ter160 4 Posted September 24, 2020 Author Share Posted September 24, 2020 The problem is due to the configuration that you told me, if I put the one I used for the rest of the non-lighting objects, the export works in the blueprint editor 2 If you want, I'll give you the capture where I have put the texture with the TrainGlass.fx shader in blender 2.83 Link to comment https://simtogether.com/forums/topic/412-create-transparent-texture-with-paintnet/#findComment-2163 Share on other sites More sharing options...
