The material of an transparent texture must be callen "!somethingelse" important is the "!". Your texture must have than an alpha channel to be transparent or you use rgb bitmaps with channel 0 0 0 = transparent

huuuu???

[Lars]

Do you know max? Change the materialname from material to !transparent for example. With the original textures it will work. For your own textures you must add an alpha chanel into your texture via photosho or any other program. Or you use an RGB bmp immage where the RGB 000 (complete black) is the empty part. As I remember it was all written in the IS2 helpfile.
