CS3 - exr's + transparency :: not alphas! help!

aarhrrhhghgh!

my CS3 has suddenly started opening exr’s as if they were png’s - i.e. not a flattened image, and the alpha channel not present but displayed as transparency.

What have I accidentally pressed?

This morning it was all fine, now the same files i rendered this morning are opening without any alpha’s and thus incorrectly. The help files don’t say anything!

Could anyone help me out?

IMO, Adobe broke how photoshop imports exr’s. See my comment in this thread…http://www.chaosgroup.com/forum/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=20422&highlight=exr

what???!!!???

when / how did this update happen to my pc~?
it was working fine this morning, how the hell has it updated itself?

replacing that file didn’t work…

god this is so annoying…are adobe becoming like autodesk and just destroying there own software?
