Hi, Iv'e made a nice 8192 res night light map,but when i covert it to a tex, the converter asks for a
tranperency map, how do I make one ?

How you do it is use the texture again as a graduated transparency map.  It'll work.  (Did for me,
at least).

I was just about to refer you to the orbiter forum for my pltex mini-tutorial, but the forum's down...

Anyway, load up pltex, choose to use your night bitmap as the main map, choose yes to creating a
map, choose graduated, and then choose your night bitmap again as the transparency mask.
