Hello there,
I need some help with removing the background of animated vtf texture files.
The original gif images and the split frames all have no background
but VTFEdit auto-generates a black one when creating the animated vtf.
I've tried using $translucent and $alphatest in the vmt file, but nothing is working.
Am I missing an important step?

What VTF Options are you using to import the image in VTFEdit?

I solved the problem.
Every single frame has to be converted to a tga file before importing them to VTFEdit.
