Hi all,
i am using a TGA file with alpha channel as an image map.  i had expected
that the object would not cast shadows in areas where the image is
completely transparent.

however, the shadows are not affected by the image map. the shadows are
those cast by the underlying object.

has anyone got an idea how i could get the desired result?

kind regards, uwe
