Hi all

I have used alpha Chanel in the past however i tried, for teh first time with 1.20 + 2014 yesterday and it was not working, I have it checked as enabled but teh render finished as if it were unchecked/disabled. Has any one used in in 1.20 and if so would anyone know why it may not be working when checked/enabled?

thanks

It's working fine for me.
Have you checked the option that the viewport is ignoring changes?

Working for me too. Maybe there is a skydome in your scene blocking the background?

i i enable the option then select Alpha channel it should render only the characters and not the props etc... right?


Example i have a girl in front of a building but I wnat to render her then put volumetric lighting in on the building so i want to render both seperatly alphachanel enabled should accomplish this ?

That's not really the way the alphachannel works. May I suggest having a look in the Octane Standalone manual - it provides the details on how alphachannel works.
