Title: Creating & Adding Squad Logos
Post by: Lone Knight on March 28, 2005, 07:09:16 pm

Hey, I am making a campaign in which you infiltrate (at one point) a group of terrorists. Anyway, I want to make the logo that they have be like one of those nazi swashtika's (mind my spelling). How am i supposed to add something like that as a logo?

Squad logos are 8-bit pcx files with the invisible parts colored pure green (0x00ff00 or 0,255,0) and I'm guessing that alpha-mapped tga's work as well.  If you're asking how to add them to a fighter, well, you're on your own there.  That's probably one of the most annoying and difficult things you'd ever have to do in Freespace modding.

Wait... Knight, do you mean "where do I put the logo after I make it"? That part's easy...  If you're asking "how do I make the other fighters use it" or "I'm making my own fighter, how do I set it where you put the logo" or "can someone make me one," you're on your own.
