The original tga is embedded in the SKP.
It gets exported to the temp directory when rendering.

Twilight handles tga, it just doesn't recognize that they have alpha transparency. The next version of Twilight will add tga to the list of images to allow alpha for.

As nothing works for me, Ecuadorian Kerkythea export, Chris Temp file... :wall:
I have found more simple :mrgreen:
Just draw a rectangle filled with texture of Color Picker of trees' leaves :roll:
Edit texture et voila I can extract easily an image tga from the 3Dwarehouse SU file ;)
