So i'm working on a decal for a locomotive (Same Thing as a basic scenery object soo)
so i go and work on the blueprint etc. and when i go to export and preview it shows up solid pink

What could i possibly be doing wrong?

Maybe it is a read only folder problem, not sure. I have a similar problem. What I do is save my .dds files within the source location before I export the model and blueprint. Then use RS_Bin Tool to import the .dds and save the texture to the Asset location. I haven't found any way to cure the problem, so I use a work around. Pain in the backside, yes, but it works. Btw, I don't use the preview tool, so this may not be related.

Oh, i fixed it. the issue was when I was converting the .png to .ace I was not using RWACETOOL
Lesson learned. Use RwAceTool to convert to .ace

Maybe I should try that as so far none of my .ace format conversions have worked through PS and the BP editor. I have the right plugins for PS, but I always seem to get no image format files to export from the BP compilations. We will see. Education is always a good thing when it comes to TS.
