Hey everyone, I'm having some issues with an F-16 livery I'm trying to make.

 

I made the skin, converted it to .DDS (DXT5, Generate mipmaps) via Gimp. I then added the skins to a folder with a description matching the skin names and labelled "false" wherever a skin is in the local folder. When loading into the game to check the skin, however, all the areas that I changed are solid black (not the green digi camo thing) except for the default "shine" from what I'm guessing is some sort of alpha layer.

 

When exporting my DDS layer, I noticed it pops up as just a Gimp logo with DXT3 and a solid black square with DXT5. When I first flatten the image, however, the icon actually appears like my camo but has been sized down a bit with a large transparent bar at the top, and still appears as just black in DCS.

 

This is getting super frustrating, so any help would definitely be appreciated.

Figured it out, it was a series of missteps on my end. Admins feel free to delete

I am having a similar issue. I would appreciate it if you could tell me what you fixed.
