Anyone figured out how to get transparent .Tga's in Ps CS 6 yet?
Cheers..
actually that's exactly when a batch conversion would be handy.
you only have to create a script for a certain folder once and pin it to the taskbar.
then every time before you switch from Photoshop to Skinstudio you click it. you have to move your mouse to the taskbar anyways.
About the changes on Adobe's TGA plugin, they had a reason for that, you can search "TGA plugin" at Adobe forums to find out.
But anyway, you can leave with PNG's just fine, here is how:
• open SkinStudio, go to the settings and make sure you check the option
to convert PNG into TGA.
• open the folder for the skin you're editing, create a folder there called PNG (just PNG not
variations like PNG_xx or something else)
• save all the new skin graphics you want to change or edit into this folder, as .png format
• on SkinStudio, go to any section you want to edit and use the arrow button right after the Import
button on the images area (see the screenshot bellow) and choose the graphic you saved on the PNG folder
mentioned above.
• after you use the import function, you can quick changing the graphics and click the link "Force image reimport"
at the top right of SkinStudio interface (also see screenshot bellow)
I know that reading the instructions, it does sound fancy but it's not, I will make a video showing this process and
post a link in here tomorrow to help more.

- Force image reimport
Nice tut, Dani!!
Thanks Danno... look forward to that vid.
Hello. Here is the quick video showing the process.
Please also note that once you imported any image for any section once, you can
keep modifying the image and then only click the "Force image reimport" to
refresh the graphic and see the changes, no need to keep reimporting the image. (also show in the video)
If anyone still have doubts about this, just send me a message and I'll try to help.
Regards,
Dani
Dani, you should really put that as a tutorial in the SKS WinWiki.
Well done, mate!
