After rendering my model I selected "Save Layered Image" assuming it would save different layers that I could manipulate in photoshop... but when I open it all I get is this
which is the ENTIRE THING in one file... then I get this
it says this is the alpha channel.. which is nothing but a white square with a few shadows from the lights at the top.. Why is this happening?... what's SUPPOSE to happen?.. I assumed everything would be saved as an individual layer that I could manipulate in photoshop... or even take a piece to use in another graphic. Can someone help with this? Thanks in advance.
ok I figured out I had the totally wrong idea on what I thought it did when "layering" the export..... I didn't know all it did was export a mask to go along with it... from a discussion I read in another forum I thought it exported each part as its' own layer, maybe they were talking about a newer version of SW... idk. just want to put this here for the sake of others who may google the same thing being under the wrong impression.. lol
