Ship hull tga files have an alpha layer. When I removed the stripes off bismarck a while ago, I made a black and white version, put a gradient on the hull section I had altered and put it as an alpha in the tga, so it looked right, but I was never certain why the hull tgas have alphas. Is it something to do with shadow casting and lighting effects. I notice some class have more hull "effects" than others.

Anyway, just wondered if anyone knew. I presume it is not to do with the black damage effect that can appear...?
