 Unlike LightWave 3D, infiniMap allows you to specify which channel of an image you wish to use for texturing. In some instances it may be useful to just apply the red channel as a bump map for example. This feature also allows you to just use the alpha channel of a RGBA image to mask out other textures for example. Unlike LightWave 3D, infiniMap allows you to specify which channel of an image you wish to use for texturing.
