LittleMissCheyenne Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Hey Everyone,I'm new to the forums, but hope that someone can help me with what I've been searching for. I have a UV map for a dress, and I only want to use parts of it, so I want to hide parts and texture only the body of it. I've tried everything I can think of and I'm really confused on how to hide parts of the dress. If someone would be so kind as to give me step by step instructions I'd really appreciate it. I know its a simple solution, but for the life of me can't figure it out. I think I'm overthinking.Thanks so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwakkelde Kwak Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 If you want a step by step, it would really help if you could tell us what kind of graphics software you use... Photoshop, Gimp etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kwakkelde Kwak Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Ok:) Open your texture If it's a single layer, right click it in the list on the top right of your screen Select "Add Layer Mask" Choose "White" With the mask selected, paint everything you don't want black, it should disappear from the layer as you do it Export your image as png or tga (32 bit) I hope that helps... If you have multiple layers, add the mask to the other ones as well. In Photoshop you can paint directly onto the complete alpha channel, but I don't think that's possible in Gimp.
