How to use a Mask?

in Technical Help (nuts n bolts)

I have converted a 3DS bottle to an OBJ. I can import the bottle's labels but the liquid inside doesn’t show through the surrounding glass. There is a mask image that I can use, but I don’t know how to use it so the liquid shows through the glass. Help!

    If you already have the mask, all you should need to do is go to the bottle’s surface settings and plug it into the Cutout Opacity.

    Thank you that did work - I can see the underlying sauce. Unfortunately my labels seem to hang out in the air since the bottle is now invisible. The only idea I had was to duplicate the bottle, reduce its size ever so lightly, and then make it glass to get everything to look right. Anybody out there have a better way?

    Create a geo-shell for the bottle, and use that for the label.
