svetlik Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 Trying to apply a decal as cookie cutter to a grid that will be curved slightly. Image has alpha and looks fine in Photoshop, alpha is clear w/black all around. See attached pics. Am I the only one who has constant problems with everything I try to do in AM????? Always loved AM but AM don't love me BACK. I'm sure its something stupidly obvious. Any help appreciated-sorry to be such a painus in the anus.

Wildsided Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 Are the normals reversed for those 3 patches? Don't know if that makes a difference, just stabbing at the dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted June 22, 2020 Hash Fellow Share Posted June 22, 2020 A:M will skip any patches which would not display any pixels because of the alpha channel. For most decals that is efficient, but causes a problem for cookie cutters. A work around is to make a version of the decal that has no alpha channel, apply that, then swap in the original image.

svetlik Posted June 22, 2020 Author Share Posted June 22, 2020 They were indeed but still renders the same after reversing them. I will try that trick of swapping the image and let you know. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
