invisible base textures

[urban]

Hey everyone, I am looking for a invisble base texture. I need it for my beach areas, since I use the white sand beach mod and the beach base texture looks still a little bit diffrent than the actual beach terrain, so does anyone know where I can find invisible base textures for the lot editor???

I have no idea how to use the Ilive reader

I often use this: BDS Stupid Texture by builderman...

You put the file in your plugins folder, then load the lot editor and use the base texture, then save the lot. Before you load the game remove the file from your plugins and the lots you made using that base texture will now have "invisible" base textures.

This would be a very good moment to start learning how to use it...

This system does not work 100%. When you use a lot calling unexistent texture exemplars, sooner or later the dark blue Maxis background can be seen across the missing textures....

You mean like the water texture bug? Hmmm... Never noticed that. Of course, I never knew how else to do it until reading yours and MAS71's tips about using the Reader...

well maybe I will use the BDS Stupid Texture just for the pictures for my MD....

Urban, if you follow that tutorial transparent textures are simple as.
