A free 3d model veiwer that can render with Alphas properly?

[josh98]

So.... I ripped a new model from SADX, but It has an Alpha layer in the textures (No, not Perfect Chaos ), so I was wondering if there was a free program that renders with Alphas working.

Blender, if you know how.

Can't 3DS MAX do that?

@thegameexplorer: Well could you tell me how? I got my cameras properly set. I just need to find out how to enable the Alphas and the Smoothing Groups.

So... 1: What version of Blender is that?
2: How do I make the smoothing groups work?

That was Blender 2.63, but the layout is the same on all versions of Blender starting from 2.5.

I think this is what your looking for?
