3D Transparency?

I have a PNG texture that imports correctly with transparency in the command panel when I view it by itself.  I have PBR, unlit and diffuse shaders which I've tried applying and all of them have Opacity Texture checked... and yet I get no transparency\opacity on any shader I try.   I'm sure I'm missing something stupid but I can't figure out what that might be.   

Transparency works fine on Sprites.  Are Opacity maps not actually supported on 3D textured objects?

  Ok solved it.  Found the stupid thing I wasn't doing.  Blending mode needs to be "Premultiplied Alpha" and you shouldn't check Opacity Texture because then it will enable a new texture slot which won't be full and it'll render improperly.

  Hi Gavin, 
  
  I'm also struggling with this feature,  im trying to have an occluder ramp down/up in opacity. 
  
  At the moment I've added an depth mask texture to an occluder box, but so far no succes. 
  What kind of material (and settings) did you use? 
  
  Thanks!
