I skinned a Tatooine building and added an alpha channel, but this happened:

I'm not sure what to do as I tested the building in BFBuilder before skinning and it was fine, but after skinning it was this way.
Thanks for any help

If I'm not wrong, you need edit the .msh file of your building to enable transparency. check

I wouldn't recommend skinning a building to make it transparent. You'll see straight out of the other side.

Wait, does adding an alpha channel change to transparency.
I added it because I though it needed one.
I only wanted to change the building's color.

Well thanks I'll see if removing the alpha channel fixes it.

LOL, weird that after saving without compression the building's texture looked normal (as in stock normal), but was missing the color changes that had been added.
Thanks all :D [Solved]
