Oh, in advance I'd love any help at all. Or even a free bump. :3 Please don't PM me though.. for some reason I'm glitched and don't get them x: If really need be, for help with the object material coding or file, I'm willing t opay in DA points or art.
Would any one be able to point me in the direction of a place where I can find information on making objects transparent? I've figured out how to make the materials transparent, but when my character goes into said item, they disappear.. x: Trying to have it like a science-fiction type container thing o3o' so yes I'd like to be able to see my character and the canine/feline models I plan on putting inside as experiments o.o'
-----------------
Original problems with my preset have been fixed. Thankyou so much for everyon who helped me out. Karma has been given. If you'd be interested in a free art commission for thanks don't hesitate to ask. :3 My deviantart is listed as my webpage on my profile.
Edit:
TUrns out all isn't fixed.. I can see my preset fine and it exports, but when I upload it for others to download, they don't see it. D:

That's a lovely preset. Also, the reason you aren't getting PM's is because a lot of people have the name Zombie, so it gets sent to the wrong one.
Anywho, this is just a coding issue, simple fix. Erase all the coding in the material, and replace it with this one: (You may want to keep a backup of your original coding, in case this somehow doesn't work.)

like the preset
-
Thankyou ^-^ It's my first.. so I'm pretty self-concious about it xD
Yay that coding fixed the eye and head/body blending problem perfectly thankyou so much :3
The mane is the only issue now, it still looks the same as in the screenshot in my first post.
I wanted to export it to test out the glowing effect and it's saying "failed to export" D: Why? Did I do something wrong? :c
-
Manes need to have a certain amount of transparency to them to make them the nice fuzzy look like they have in custom mode. Opening the manemask texture has a nice enough layout for how the transparency should look.
Something such as this (http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/2763/hamiltonbaronmane.png). See how the bottom has that toothy area of nothingness?
-
Oh I see, so I should make mine look spikey at the end like that? o:
It's also saying failed to export, I wanted to test out how the glow works in game. Did I do something wrong maybe? :c
Edit:
Mane problem is now fixed, thanks so much :3
Still wont export though.. :c I worked so hard on this, it'll be so fail if I can't use it D: Honest dudes, if you help me figure this out, in the end when/if I get it to work, I'll pay you in DA points if you like :c *desperate* Not alot, because I'm savig for premium, but maybe 1-3?
-
Does your username have spaces or weird symbols in it?
-
Nope :c just ZombieKitteh
Edit:
Changing all the images and coding to .png or .jpg does not work. It still fails :x
-
*hums and twiddles thumbs* Maybe it's a coding problem? I tried using the coding to work on another preset and it failed as well :c
Then again I tried using/testing it with another fail, quick test preset without the glow and it exported fine. I tried getting rid of the glowing markings on the first preset to see if may it was those, and it still failed. Is it a image problem or a coding error? :x I check and all the images are the same size.
I worked really hard on this, I truthfully don't want to have to re-do it D:
Edit: Herp- should've just edited my old post with this new info. Sorry D:
-
It's not a coding issue or image issue...
when you click export and the yellow bar goes across, what does it stop on when it fails?
-
It goes by so fast I had to record it and slow down the video to see. Good old Fraps saved me.
Anyways, it gets to the cbodyshade.jpg
Edit:
I feel so silly now and realized what I did wrong. I got it to export and work fine now. I didn't know I had to put the shading textures into the preset folder.. x'3 I feel so silly now.
Edit2:
Mkays I lied I stil lhave porblems D: I can export and see it fine. But when others go to download it, they can't see it :c
-
Is the .fhp named correctly, and put in their "presets" folder?
-
Yes :c It's still the same name that it exported into.
zombiekitteh_1.fhp
Tried capitalizing the Z and K letters, but still nothing x: and she makes and exports her own presets, so yes he put it in the Preset folder
-
*bumps myself back on the first page* Still needing help :c I feel bad bugging people constantly.
-
What some people suggest is making a new account and trying that. I don't know if you want to try it though.
-
Humm.. I didn't know you could have multiple accounts?
Anyways, I made one ayways a little bit ago and tried. Still not working or showing up. :c *goes to get ride of other test account*

EDIT:
Preset issuse has been solved. Only took a complete reinstall of the game .3.'
Thankyou for anyone who helped. Feel free t ocontact me via DA about free art comissions :3
Delete please.
