custom flags and signs don't work

[Captain Epic 14]

Hello everyone.

I have tried to load custom flag/sign by using the propper command(which I will mention soon), and when it loads the picture, either its a blank white texture or a very dark one(the dark one appears when I transform the picture to .paa file)

when I use .jpg type I get blank white texture.

when I use .paa type I get the picture I want, just in a very dark texture, one that you can't really see what is on the sign/flag.

 

the command I use on signs:

this setObjectTexture [0, "YOURPICTURENAME.jpg"] 

the command I use on flags:

this setFlagTexture "Texture.jpg"

If anyone knows what's the problem, I would be grateful if he or she would share the solution.

Is your image resolution in the ^2 scale i.e. 256x256 or 1024x512 etc.

 

Also where are you calling this command, is it in the Initialization field of the unit/object?

My image resolution is not in this scale.

and I put the command in the init field of the object.

There lies your problem

I've tried changing the scale of a picture to 1024x512 and it doesn't seem to work(i've used wide sign).

I get white blank sign.

maybe a problem with the path to your texture file. Check that path and check ur rpt file for error messages.
