Torplexed -> Black boxes around graphics (5/5/2008 12:54:44 AM) I've noticed in my attempts to modify the art (targa) files I'll always get either a black or white box around the graphic. But never a transparent one. Was curious as to whether anyone can tell me what I'm going wrong. [img]http://neptoon.homestead.com/BlackBoxes.jpg[/img]

WanderingHead -> RE: Black boxes around graphics (6/3/2008 8:47:29 AM) I was hoping someone with more knowledge would reply to you. I believe that you want to work out how to use the "alpha channel" mask for targa files. Google it and see if you find something useful. When I originally modded graphics files for GGWAW, I used Adobe Photoshop Elements (the stripped down version), and I found that I could not get this to work. Elements doesn't support it. So I shifted over to gimp (http://www.gimp.org/) which is free and full featured. I've been happy with gimp ever since.

Torplexed -> RE: Black boxes around graphics (6/7/2008 5:41:29 AM) Thanks for the reply. [8D] Alpha channels eh? Sounds familiar. I'll try and figure it out.
