Title: Custom Squadron logos
Post by: Sable Phoenix on May 17, 2003, 11:09:31 am

Hi folks, newbie here.  I have a question... how do you edit, create and include custom squadron logos for use in custom missions?  For example, the 242nd (I think) Silver Scythes in the Derelict campaign have a custom logo.  I'd also like to edit the default logos if possible, since they really look just pasted on to the side of the fighters.  Thanks!

they have to be a certain size, and the background has to be pure green. Other than that, just open up photoshop or whatever you have and make one, or find a cool picture somewhere and make it the right size, green background, etc.

For sizes, just check the Derelict one and when you are done, put it in the folder with all the other squadlogos and you should be good to go.

Only if it's 0,255,0 green. Any other shade of green will be fine.

But that looks like 0,255,0 on Earth in TrashMan's logo.
