How to make a texture have a transparent background?

Problem is SOLVED – It is as simple as making the background color of the Texture png be the color you want the material’s ‘background color’ to be. In my case: Instead of (a) having a transparent Pupil png over an Eye and hoping the Eye behind would remain white, you are supposed to (b) simply make the Edges of the pupil png white.

What’s the difference between invert texture and diffuse texture?

You can use a texture with an alpha channel or simply a value between 0 (transparent) and 100 (opaque). Invert texture will reverse the alpha channel. Tint adds a color to the transparency. Use diffuse will use the colors of the material’s Diffuse / Albedo / Base Color. Index of Refraction (IOR) controls how the material refracts light.

What’s the best way to define transparency in Sketchfab?

It is usually defined using a grayscale (Luminance channel) or Alpha texture. You can use the slider to set an Alpha “threshold”, and invert the texture if needed. Alpha mask requires a texture to be useful. Masking is useful for materials that require a “cut-out” effect like leaves, text, and logos.
