Full Version: Material with an Alpha Channel?
Root » Houdini Indie and Apprentice » Material with an Alpha Channel?

Hello all.

I have a base material on a model of a remote control and would like to place another material that has an alpha channel (a product logo) on top of the base material? The alpha chanel material effects the material below so the I do not see any of the other material. I can not for the life of me figure it out or find any reference to how it can be done.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thank you!

The alpha channel can be used to blend between(composite) two materials, or can be used to blend between the material properties of one material.

The layer mix or layer composite node can be used for Mantra.

Other renderers may have some ability to blend materials as well.
