SetObjectTexture & Uniform Flag Patch - Independent Faction

Recommended Posts

Hi all - does anybody happen to know how you can use the setObjectTexture on an Independent uniform and still retain the flag that appears on the sleeve? For some reason, when I load a uniform, it disappears. The flag on the texture I am using is veiled by a second layer. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance, as always!

Had the same issue a while ago. Sometimes it was fully appearing on both sides even if that uniform texture wasn't really mirrored and sometimes the AAF flag was shining through. I've properly covered the original flag in GIMP and exported it as .png, then converted it to.paa with TexView, like usual. Didn't find any solution and discontinued work in that direction.

You can set the flag/patch thingy with setObjectTexture [1, "flag.paa"].

I'm sure there's some you can find in the A3 pbos somewhere.

Thanks, L3TUC3 - weird! I swear I tried that! I'll try again - cheers!

This doesn't work - at least not with the Independent uniform.

The flag is part of the texture so ensure the texture you're replacing it with has the flag on it

It's on the texture but something appears over the top, concealing it. If I use the Splendid camera, I can see it underneath!

Yup! But I can't get that on the Independent standard combat uniform! The flag is in the right place, but there's a layer that covers it over. If you zoom in with the Splendid camera, you can see the flag, hidden behind this mysterious layer which the camera sort of 'pierces'. Other uniforms seem fine.

I haven't tried setObjectTexture [2, Flag.paa] yet though, might be the key...

L3TUC3 - Thanks, I have no idea why, but now it appears to be working! I think I must have had a typo in my code first time I tried. Cheers!

Right - here's the problem! You can't use the insignia function and have the flag at the same time!

Excuse me for being a major moron - turns out the texture was in the wrong place on the .paa. There's two sleeve patches, one which is hidden behind the other - that's why it wasn't appearing - sorry for all the hassle! @L3TUC3 - thanks, mate, for your patience! @IndeedPete - it all works! You could give it another go if you wanted! :)

No need at the moment, thanks.^^ Does it work for any uniform with flag patches or just independent ones?
