PrototypeBayu8 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) I decided to make my own custom pilot patches and when I did put in on dcs (its on my f-15c btw) I have this problem where there is a white box surrounding the patches, normally, it would just show the patches. fyi. I saved the picture as pilot_F15_patch_18_sqn.tga and i saved it as a .dds file (I added .tga in the end because the default patches did so, but it is a .dds file). I wonder if I did anything wrong in making this and im asking you guys for a possible solution to remove the "white box"... Photos: my custom patches file photo, ( saved as pilot_F15_patch_18_sqn.tga): The problem: Any suggestions highly appreciated.. Edited October 12, 2016 by PrototypeBayu8 If in doubt, full afterburner... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkFire Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 The patches you've designed (very nice by the way): are they colour on a white background or are they colour on a transparent background? If the background is white, try making it transparent & see if that works.

Blaze Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 They need an alpha channel. The patches should be solid white on the alpha channel, with the white color surrounding them black. i7 7700K | 32GB RAM | GTX 1080Ti | Rift CV1 | TM Warthog | Win 10 "There will always be people with a false sense of entitlement.

Blaze Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 The alpha layer needs to be in the channels tab, not layers tab. And save as a 32 bit tga. i7 7700K | 32GB RAM | GTX 1080Ti | Rift CV1 | TM Warthog | Win 10 "There will always be people with a false sense of entitlement.
