I have a model that is neither published nor finished/"made" but I have started work on it, is it still eligible for the contest?

I read this in the custom objects thread:

We'll add support for binary alpha (ie only white or black pixels in alpha channel)
There won't traslucent alpha, since it's only partially supported, and generates artifacts.

Any idea when the binary alpha is coming?

Works great!
Thank's for the help with the materials!

I think I've got everything down except for the materials.

Where does the <MaterialName> go?
Does it go after the object suffix? ex. _Lod0_TSDN_StoneTexture_Stone
Is it the name of the material in the material tab? (Blender)
I'm thinking it's somewhere else but I can't figure it out.

This update is called a beta for a reason. Nadeo has changed many things in this update but it is still a work in progress.
