What are people's tricks for making cutouts in clothing? I've had some success exporting the base texture, making parts of it transparent, importing the result as an overlay texture, then hiding the base texture. However, I've heard that there is a method using OcclusionMap? I tried messing around with that but wasn't able to make any visible effect on my model. Suggestions? Is there any advantage of one method over the other?
Here's slightly my tarted-up version of
Mr-Fox's Ryouko Yabuki, using the overlay texture method to hide the parts of her leotard that overlap with her garter belt and panties:
