VrayLightRect - texture with transparency

[Dariusz Makowski (Dadal)]

Heya

In max in order to get transparent texture(using gradients for example) with lights all I have to do is to change their alpha mode or something like that... either way its doable. Is there a way to do it in maya? As far as I can tell its not possible as file node dont have that option, can we have a tick for vray light to enable any input texture to have a transparency taken from image or even better be able to plug in custom transparency/cutout map?

Thanks, bye.

transparency works fine for me. It uses alpha is luminance option where any part of the image is black or anything other then white will become transparent.

Ah so I have to tick alpha is luminance to get it working with textures then ? Right then in that case scratch this wish. Didnt think that was it.

Thanks ! Ciao.
