Hey everyone 
I wanted to make some new tiles for Gish so I could use them in my levels. So I made some in Photoshop, and saved them as a TGA file in a newly-made 'tiles08\textures' directory. I got them into the editor, but one thing didn't go right... The transparancy of the tiles.
What colour should I use for transparancy? I tried RGB 0,0,0 but it just displayed it as black in the game. I also just tried saving the image with normal Photoshop transparancy, but then it just displayed it as white.
Any help is much appreciated

Targa supports an alpha channel, so just use it. Just select 32 bit after save as targa.

Ah, I used 24 bit when I saved the file.. I'll try 32 bit, thanks
EDIT: Yep, it works! Thanks again
