Why is my part pink?

[Absolution]

Yeah... pink. My texture is not pink but when I load it up in KSP it\'s pink. It appears that the texture itself is mapping properly as I can see all the little details and a hint of its proper color but it\'s as if there is an additional layer that wrapped itself around the part.

I used blender to make/map the part and Gimp to make the texture.

*resolved*

PNG needs to be 32bit.

Your texture is not 32bit it\'s 24bit. You need to make sure you are saving the alpha channel. There should be some very old posts on this you can find via the search at the top of the page.

Probably why I didn\'t notice it. I usually scan the first few pages to see if I can spot relevant topics. I will be sure to do due diligence in the future.
