Hey Forum,

I am not sure if I am missing something... but since when do opacity maps not work in the editor hardware preview anymore? I have a vague memory that this used to work. see pic attached, all black areas should be transparent.

Thanks,
T

I don't remember if opacity ever worked like you'd want to with Octane...

It's an unsupported feature and lot of effort spent by me to find a solution.
