Hi @ambrosi.fabio and welcome to the community!

I'm a little confused by your issue. Do you mean render the transparency not bake?

Also, your second screenshot looks like a top down view of the scene and is a bit confusing trying to see where the issue is.

When you get a chance, can you please post some additional information and screenshots or zip and attach the scene file here or via dropbox/google drive or another file sharing program so I can get a better idea of what's happening?

Let me know if anything changes!

Ok, yes 🙂 i'll try to explain:

I have this virtual set and i'm trying render texture on a file (using batch bake mental ray). 

When i try render solid texture (like a wall or ground) no problem but when i try render glasses (or semi transparent material) i can't catch alpha information and material is 100% solid. (or white).

So, for example, if i have this transparent material

i'd like catch only hilight and shining in texture file..

I know, sorry for my english.. i don't know if you understand what i mean.

Hi @ambrosi.fabio

Ah ok I understand now.

It may depend on how your scene is set up, lights etc.

When you get a chance, can you please zip and attach the scene file here or via dropbox/google drive or another file sharing program so I can take a look at it?

Let me know if anything changes!
