N-Reg in VC missing after using paint kit

[TBTBTB 0]

Apologies if this has already been answered. 

 

I've recently made a livery using the paint kit. I've got a small hiccup were the registration number doesn't show inside the VC. I've saved the texture file as a DDS DXT5 and it's located in the correct folder. Is there anything special I need to do to get the texture to show up in the VC?

 

Thanks,

Tim

Just a wild guess:

Are you sure you are familiar with the editing of the registration file, as it needs adjustments in the alpha channel?

If you've only edited the normal paint layer but made no changes to alpha, then my suggestion would be to look up a few tutorials on YouTube, as they clear up that whole alpha editing quite nicely.
