Alpha textures

Unity Engine
1

Hi,

we’re using alpha textures in cinema 4D but in unity they just show up with white backgrounds, we’ve got a bunch of planes with leaf textures on and in cinema theyre fine but not in unity, do we need to make shaders in unity to get that to work??

any help much appreciated,

cheers,

Will

  1. You need to use a transparent shader. Eg. one of the builtin transparent ones. Or one of the nature shaders on the wiki.

  2. Make sure the alpha map is actually in the texture. You can preview this in the texture inspector by clicking on the Show alpha checkbox.
