OK - I feel like I'm missing something. I have a 24-bit PNG that has a background value of 254,254,254 that needs to be made transparent.

I haven't had luck with any combination of the flags below (using nconvert 5.60):L

-ctype rgba
-add_alpha "value" (what is "value" supposed to represent? Can't find info in docs)
-merge_alpha
-transpcolor 254 254 254

Any thoughts on how to make an RGB png into an RGBA, with 254,254,254 having an alpha of 0?

I'd appreciate it.

value is the alpha that you want to add

Code: Select all

nconvert.exe -out tga -add_alpha alpha.tga -overwrite main.tga

produces a 100% black alpha channel in main.tga

I'm I using the wrong command?
