Transparent Mesh textures becomes black

Backstory
So I just spent about 10 hours exporting a roblox character, importing into blender, seamlessly unwrapping each body part and then importing them back into roblox as meshes.

All so that I can use clothes on characters without having a humanoid inside (because humanoids forces alot of unwanted behaviors).

When I was finally done, I tested it online and noticed
my hands were black even tho my skincolor is yellow.

To my great disappointment I noticed roblox does not suppose transparent textures on meshes :confused:
Is this something that will be fixed?

I honestly spent the last 2 days working on this and now I must reverse all progress due to this bug :frowning:

Its because meshparts dont support alpha (I think).

For now, convert the meshparts to special meshes

Every time this gets brought up, the staff go quiet. So im not sure if its too hard to implement or maybe they’re secretly working on it.

It is special meshes.

UPDATE:
I am such a haxor!

To fix this remove the texture from the special mesh, and apply it as a decal instead. It will map correctly and work with transparency.
