When compiling for bfme 2, rename compiledtextures to just textures, asset 2 times and then swap back to compiledtextures and run the game.

Hello people!
I have really strange problem with dds files.
Few days ago, I started with some trivial modding, and already got some problems I can't solve...
I installed gimp and photoshop (both with dds plugins) in order to make some dds files.
Problem is no matter how I exported them as dds, they are purple in game.
Example, was doing some new graphics for spell_powers/hero_abilities radial cursor in game and after I exported finished picture as dds, it is always purple square in game. (for example look of summoning units cursor or some other positioning aoe spell).
I simply can't find step I am missing in this process...
Also noticed one more thing, if I load some original dds from game (for example SCCRallyCall radial cursor) and then modify it, export under same name ( using compresion dtx5 and generation of minimaps) and used it it works in game. If during exporting process change name from original, same problem, it becomes purple square in game.
Presume it is some trivial thing I am missing because of lack of experience...
Some advices are more then welcome.

Try using tga files instead. If they are pink then something else is wrong - like your asset.

Same problem with .tga, simply new texture is completely purple (purple square when I try to use rallying call spellpower).
Only part of code I changed is name of texture in radiuscursortemplate in ingameui.ini
RadiusCursorTemplate = RallyRadiusCursor Texture = scctest ;SCCRally Style = SHADOW_ALPHA_DECAL OpacityMin = 20% OpacityMax = 60% OpacityThrobTime = 1500 Color = R:255 G:255 B:255 A:128 OnlyVisibleToOwningPlayer = Yes End
scctest.dds is placed in art/compiledtextures/sc folder. Is there anything else in code I should change or add?
Also any tip for process of making dds?
I simply make some test dds file from transparent background with some random marks, and then exported it as dds with DTX5 compression. Am I missing something?

That worked perfectly, big thanks guys!!!
PS. (Or just to drag compiledtextures folder into textures folder and then to run asset 2 times xD)
