I would like to know how the dds for a tree or a bocage must be saved.

DXT1 with an alpha channel is what I would imagine for anything with holes.

But Nvidia DDS Photoshop plugins have not a DXT1 alpha, just there is a DXT1 1 bit alpha.......[8|]

It must have one problem because anything saved with it, it is saved as a black image....

Well, just I wanted to create a bocage working as a wall......you could save my time sharing a fbx from the bocage.[;)]

Also double check that your new terrain object is set as alpha transparent in the terrain.txt data file.

Thanks by the info and the file.

Ah today I was working with this https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ ... F5A739471/

The idea from a building with two floors is just a cosmetic feature. In addition, I want make a building making a corner. With the textures from the game, I do not see it impossible. Always ignoring if there are problems with the units. A mod does not need be perfect at 100% if it does not crash the game.[:)]

I have made the bocage wall. https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ ... 5D1AD9A0E/ Not bad, if it is not used in long lines, three or four bocages per line, it saves many time. Thanks by the model.

About the two floor building, I have completed it and I was making another bigger as a corner. Just all these things will need be tested a lot because I have used the random textures, even I have edited some of them with less windows and other changes.

Ah I discovered how save the DXT1 texture with alpha. With paint.net. It can create dds with the format options.

Oh, it is far away from be finished because I have started it again, I selected te 1x1 scale in first place but it was better with a 2x2. And I go to need some time cleaning the older buildings. Of course, I lost most of the day making two new buildings with a size more similar to the originals but with less windows and two floors (just as comestic). The first building from the image was a bit too big.

I am not the unique and this game is too new, I am sure how in time more people will improve it and they will be able to use my work. I have added new vehicles, new buildings and other good stuff.
