| Hm... Okay I have a TGA. It's basically some white labels for buttons. It has an alpha channel, but unlike my other buttons that had a black texture... these ones with a white texture don't show up. From the image File I added File.outAlpha > Projection.Image.R/G/B and that made it show up. BUT now it only shows up as black. =P The big question in my mind, is that this works with other buttons where the button decal is black, but when the button decal is white it frick'n pukes. So I'm assuming that it's just using the Alpha channel at this point for the color |
| PolyGru |
| Maybe its related to the transparency But actually you have to see something I think that you are plugin the alpha into the colors Does the projection have no alphaSlot? |
| srge |
| Not really, it just hooks up File.outColor > Projection.Image by default |
| PolyGru |
| But i would think there is an outAlpha also |
| srge |
| File.outAlpha doesn't have any logical place to hookup that I saw |
| PolyGru |
| I mostly only use projectionMapping for gradients I see an alphaGain here in the projectionNode |
| srge |
| AlphaGain? lemmie hook up that one and I'll tell you what spits out |
| PolyGru |
| And i see an outAlpha from that projectionNode Thats what you have to use |
| srge |
| Just to clarify, in the alpha channel what's WHITE is visible, and BLACK is masked... |
| PolyGru |
| In the alphaChannel that is For transparency, its what white is transparent, and black is opaque |
| srge |
| Ah, I had it right the first time Okay, I hooked File.outAlpha > Projection.Alpha Gain... lets render and see =] |
| PolyGru |
| And you have to hook up outAlpha aswell I mean to the transparency Of the actual shader |
| srge |
| okay now it seems to say "fuck you" and ignores the projection. =P And tiles across the geometry |
| PolyGru |
| Does it tile around the area or within ? |
| srge |
| Within Each button Instead of within the projection I've deleted the 2DProjection node and I'm going to try that =] |
| PolyGru |
| Hmm thats unexpected It doesnt ignore the projection, it would have to use uv then So you see the complete texture within every button ? |
| srge |
| Not the whole thing |
| PolyGru |
| First of all if you don't need tiling, turn it off WrapU wrapV Then everything else get the default color so make it black |
