[HELP] Planet Modifier image

[gerishnakov]

Hi all I'm 99% of the way to completing a new planet modifier - High Pressure - which I've managed to get working in game, localisation and everything.

The one remaining issue is that the image the game displays for the modifier is accompanied by a square black background, presumably coming from the DDS file that contains the image for the modifier.

A screen grab of what the problem looks like is here.

Anyone have any idea how I can make the image truly transparent so there isn't that square black background? Help is much appreciated, cheers!

You need to use an good image editing software and add an alpha channel to your image. (in photoshop that's in the color tab when you add a layer).
In an alpha channel black is transparent and white is "solid".
Good luck

PS: If for some reason you can't do it, send me the dds and i'll do it for you.

Edit: Nvm, I've join your file to this post.
Cheers

Thank you so much! Before downloading your file I tried giving it a go myself - I'm using GIMP - but I just couldn't get the hang of it. Your file works perfectly however! You'll get credit as and when I upload this to the Workshop

NP.
I use photoshop so no ideas how to do it in gimpbut google alpha channel and I'm sure you'll find something.
As for the credits keep them, that was nothing really and that's the purpose of this forum.
Good upload.
