no more alpha channel...

Hi !
I’m loading a 32 bits tga into a texture. I am sure the tga contains the alpha channel with no null value in some parts of it. glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA, Picture.GetW(), Picture.GetH(),0, GL_BGRA_EXT, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, Picture.GetData());

but, there is no alpha in the opengl texture…when I’m using blend or alpha test, I get the same results as if the alpha channel was 0 everywhere…

what did I miss ? thanks.

Does your PixelFormat has AlphaBits != 0 ?

Did you enable alpha blending ( stupid question I know but sometimes accidently you could in code disable blending ).
And is the alpha channel the fourth bit in pixel ?

Yes, that was that, as I detected alpha channel in my texture, I was using a glColor3f(1, 1, 1, 0)…This was a very stupid idea…It’s been 2 days I was looking for my bug…

thanks.
