Adding team color to a new texture.

[Stanakin]

I've got a question.
I'm working on a texture for the paired modelling/texturing competition and I now want to add team color, but I have no idea how to do this.
I'm using GIMP for working with alpha channels. Can anyone tell me how?

Thanks a lot.

I believe team colour is but another layer in the material, so it's the modeller's job to add it. Careful though, you can't alpha out parts of geosets with team colour.

Team Colour is done by making the texture transparent. If it doesn't show up as team-colour when you add alpha (but rather disappears) it's because the material used for the geoset (modelling) you're applying the changes to is not set to allow team-colour. This can be changed quite easily in Magos' WarCraft III Model Editor (available in the tools section) by yourself, but considering it's a paired contest I am sure the modeller can do it for you and make sure it works out as it should rather than you risking to destroy something.

It is in fact a special material that is put onto parts of the model, so that, given transparency, will show up as team colour. And it can be easily changed as shiiK had said.
