The main rules when using the Composite Blending setting… But as IMVU has thousands of designers, us, there will often be many conflicts, as things are used together that were not designed to go with one another. Most games are designed to hide this flaw but if you have a keen eye you will start to spot it and how they worked around it. This is not an IMVU bug but instead a common rendering issue with many game type rendering engines. You’ve probably already experienced this phenomenon in chat, you jump in a pool and part of your outfit vanishes, you may go bald if you look at yourself through a window, a club light passes over you and your suddenly nekid *gasp* The big issue with using Composite Blending is that if more than one texture using them overlays another the texture the texture that is in front will render true while the texture behind it will completely vanish. The various shades of gray, dark to light, going from clear to solid. They can use any shade of gray from pure black (clear) to pure white (solid). But as they are the type of texture that will render true when in layers the blockyness is something you will just have to learn to design around and live with.Ĭomposite Blending Opacity: These are the more complex sheer opacities. The issue with non blending is the blocky chunky nature of the textures, they are often quite ugly on the edges because the edges cannot feather. If you dont need your texture to be sheer always double check that the blending setting is turned off or else your texture will suffer from or inflict the same annoying conflicts blending textures do. These textures will render true with no conflicts. Non Blending Opacity: These are basic on/off black and white opacities. There are two types of opacity on IMVU each has its use and place.
Size: Opacity maps must be the exact same size of the texture they go with and both should follow the 2x rules.Ĭonflicts: Opacity’s that use blending will conflict with one another.
There are three main things about opacity you must know.Ĭolor: White is solid, Black is clear, Grey is sheer In this guide I will discuss various uses of opacity and touch on the issues that you need to be aware of in each area. Opacity maps are companion image files that tell the texture what pixels to render and at what level of transparency to render them at. Many have no clue what that even means, or know that its the reason some things look cool as hell lol. Questions on opacity and the making of opacity maps are common.
