[Papervision3D] Material (texture) transparency?

[Radek Bauer]

Hi,

I have mesh (Collada file from 3ds) with texture with transparency. 

In exported collada file is texture transparency defined as:

...

<transparent opaque="A_ONE">

<color>1 1 1 1</color>

</transparent>

<transparency>

<float>0.65</float>

</transparency>

...

but there is no transparency effect in PV3D... 

Is there any solution? 

I try to change texture from JPG to PNG-24 and add transparency direct into
texture (yes it works :) but is it correct way to solve this?

Is any other collada texture parameters supported? or will be? (like
shininess, reflectivity, ambient, diffuse... - it's in collada file)
