Transparent Textures

[joey334000]

Can someone find a list of what items for textures can be transparent and maybe give a tutorial I can be happy.

A common rule:

If you see a transparency (White+Gray Checkered boxes[GIMP & PS] , etc) in the image, it can be made transparent.

I remember seeing a list but i'll get to that later.

From TUTORIAL:

Q: What can be made transparent?
A:
+1 files can NEVER be made transparent.

+2 files can be made transparent.
---With ASH, color transparent parts magenta. Partial transparency is not supported.
---If you need varied transparency, learn to hex. Use on of the above manual guides.

Normal files sometimes can be transparent.
---Depending on your program, just select and delete (if you see checkered boxes, congrats) or color the alpha channel black where wanted.
---(guess and check, Zelda can almost be fully transparent... Samus to a lesser extent... Mario fails)

I can give you a list of texture parts that can be transparent for you.  It's incomplete, but this is what I know so far.

1: Eye iris and Final Smash eye textures can be transparent if they're not flat-eyed.

2: Link's sword.

3: Portions of Samus's legs.

4: The visor on Fox's/Falco's headgear.

5: Peach's/Zelda's dress.

6: Almost all of Ganondorf can be transparent.  Only his hands and eye base can't be transparent.

7: Pit's wings.

8: Zero Suit Samus's ponytail.

9: Ike's cape.

10: Most +2 textures can have transparency, but only for certain areas.

No, ALL of Ganon can be transparent.

I shall correct you guys, +1 CAN be made transparent...

Also, make sure atleast 1 hard pixel is on the texture.

Most of Sonic's head and body can be made transparent.
Though its not very useful.

I want to make a Riku Marth(not evil) can his cape be transparent?

[Oizen]

I want to make a Riku Marth(not evil) can his cape be transparent?

Nope.

[Hakumen]

I want to make a Riku Marth(not evil) can his cape be transparent?

Nope.

HARD pixel.

Nope.

HARD pixel.

But it seems no one knows what that is.

[VILE]

One completely colored pixel. By that, it isnt transparent or translucent.

[Smoom]

Lololdthread.

I don't understand the +1 +2 thing. :( Most of the files I see don't have either. What does that mean?

And the completely colored pixel, that means one pixel that's colored but the rest is deleted?

Ex: I'm trying to make pikachu's tail transparent. Is that possible?

When you're using SmashBox, the textures have various formats.  Depending on the format, the textures that you insert can have various changes to them.

That seems to make a lot more sense.
