Thanks for the welcome reallydeadpoet!

Thanks for the link too, I'll give it a try and hope it works, I've tried adding some before (just the raw picture files) with no success.

It is fairly easy to make a JSGME ( mod enabler ) compatible mod:

So create a new folder and name it, let's say PixilusEmblems to make it simple. Create another folder and call it data. Put that folder inside the Emblems one you made earlier. Next name another folder emblems, put that inside the data one you made. Next create another folder and name it subemblems, put that in the emblems one. Almost done

Finally take all of those raw picture files you mention above, which are in .tga format, and copy them to that last folder you made, subemblems. Now take the mod you just created and copy it to your JSGME mods folder. Activate ( I usually do this while docked and not at sea to be safe ) and you are good to go.

Your folder-file structure for your mod should look like this: ( of note, all the below are folders as I mentioned above, the only files are the ones you copied and pasted to the last folder ).

PixilusEmblems\data\emblems\subemblems <------ that very last folder is where you put the images.

It's a little bit of work doing this yourself, but well worth it when you see the results in game

Thanks. I've actually tried this before, and I tried again just now.
But unfortunately it doesn't seem to work, I go into the same place in-game and its still blank with no option to add a side emblem.

Side note: Ive been playing the campaign a bit today and unlocked a flotilla side emblem? So the option for a side emblem it is there now but its only showing that one flotilla emblem that I unlocked with a medal.

Humble apologies but I thought we were discussing 'custom emblems'.

Go into your SH3 installation > data>Emblems and you should see 42 sub emblems and a separate folder containing 8 flotilla emblems.

If they aren't there, open up the folders from the link I have previously posted and copy and paste a few into the Emblems folder.

If that makes them show up then I'm afraid you have a faulty installation.
