Team Color Removal

[jojoman55]

I am trying to make new skins, and for example I want a footman without a shield, however if I try to alpha skin it, the team color gets in the way of course. Which then it comes to the main question: HOW DO I REMOVE TEAM COLOR!?!?!?
Thanks for all those that can answer, and I am pretty sure you can remove Team Color as i've seen it done before. Thanks, Jojoman55.

It has to be done with a model change. The model has a TC filter mesh on certain parts and by changing the model and removing those meshes, can you actually remove TC

 

[jojoman55]

Could you explain more in-depth by as an example removing the team color from Sylvanas Windrunner (Living) so that the cape can be removed/edited without TC.

I've taken the tc layer off, so now you should be able to alpha out the cloak. Just say if you want me to take it off of the footman.

Thank you! By any chance would I be able to see the difference between this model and the old one by using a vertex or model editing program? If so where can I find it and what can I use?

Sorry it took so long to reply, but I'm still having problems. I have no idea what you did to the mesh.

What you do is remove a material layer and alter another.

* Two material layers in a material before removing the TC.

You want to delete all material layers (double click a material in the Material Manager) that use Replaceable ID 1 (this is the TC file and changes according to player/the specific team colour of a unit.) In the same material that you found a material layer with Replaceable ID 1, there's another material layer with the actual texture, this will be in Filter Mode - Blend, you want to change that to Filter Mode - Transparent if you want to alpha something out.
