[JAVA3D] Help with transparent textures please :)

[Chris Fenton]

Do transparent textures work in java3d ?
To demonstrate  I have included two pictures of a low res cylinder with
transparent textures (correct, wrong).
Now matter what combination of Texture Attributes I use the blue back
seems to dominate.
Here is the jython code
def buildAppearance(self):
                   app = Appearance();
                   ta = TransparencyAttributes()
                   ta.setTransparencyMode(ta.NICEST)
                app.setTransparencyAttributes(ta)
                tex = TextureLoader('mask5.png', JFrame()).getTexture();
                app.setTexture(tex);
                texAttr = TextureAttributes();
                texAttr.setTextureMode(TextureAttributes.REPLACE);
                app.setTextureAttributes(texAttr);
                pa = PolygonAttributes()
                pa.setCullFace(PolygonAttributes.CULL_NONE)
                pa.setBackFaceNormalFlip(1)
                app.setPolygonAttributes(pa)
                return app


I have spent quite some time trying to solve this on my own so any help
greatly appreciated,
Chris
