Hello there Lude,
Talk about prayers being answered, well here is a small one anyway.

In the actual 1.5 FPrime Render control box, beside the set filename and format there is now a new Alpha button.

Thank you Mr. Worley

Hey Nigel, it's great news :) - the alpha from LW was a bit of a pain as it wasn't matching up right.

I just use 'save as 32 bit' whatever, (if i'm doing a preview render) and the alpha is saved with the pic.

Yeah, F prime 1.0 always made an alpha. You just need to pick a file format like PNG32 that saves it. F prime 1.5 just makes that alpha optional.
