    Yeah Baby! Yeah! It works! I’m glad it wasn’t something stupid I was overlooking. Thanks for all your help on this one!

    I haven’t used particleillusion in a while and just ran into the same issue with the ‘save alpha’ grayed out. Opened the pilluision render and checked it there and all is okay. However, will there be a fix for this anytime soon? Was also under the impression that the ability to create text within pillusion was soon to be incorporated but nothing yet and that was over a year ago. What is going on?

    how do you “run pl render manually?”
    I’m using PL SE, I don’t see any button for this other than the red record button which is the one leading me to the greyed out alpha box.

    You don’t have pIRender if you’re using SE.

    If “Save Alpha” is greyed out, then you haven’t chosen a format that supports alpha. Use PNG, TGA for images, or if you need AVI download and install HuffYUV or Lagarith codecs.
