I know, but I can't get the model to look at the .png or .tga, it only wants .jpg; what do I do?

RE: Transparent Monster Texture

Then you're doing something wrong. Models can work with .jpg, .png, .dds, and .tga.

I was trying the Penumbra Worm, as a test, but it seems it only wants jpg files. Now the Amnesia monsters are dds files, but I do not have a program to convert a file to .dds type. I tried putting the dds plugin for gimp but I must be doing something wrong. Any suggestions?

RE: Transparent Monster Texture

Just stick to .png for now. And you're going to have to change the image directory of the .dae file. Try following my tutorial.

RE: Transparent Monster Texture

Againt, as already mentioned you can't make something partially invisible using the alpha material.

Not on a solid diffuse material type.

It must be translucent.

How do I make it a non-solid diffuse material type?

Please explain.
