Im trying to make a pine tree in xsi and I follow the tgen tutorial perfectly expect when i put on my transparency map its make the leave clear and the background black. If someone could tell me what im doing wrong that would be very helpful. Also when rending map for texture do i need to click anything special?

1st: when the leaves become clear and the background becomes black you must invert the alphachannel
2nd: what is "rendering a map for texture"?

you should only invert the alphachannel not the whole image
