Hello 
I've been trying to convert the base game "Outdoor Seat" (new patio chair with tied-on seat and back cushions) to a dining chair that will snap to a table.
I was functionally successful with the exception of some aesthetic issues. Specifically, the little ties on the back of the cushion are not showing up properly on the dining chair version. The transparent area around the ties in the texture is showing as black. My recoloured texture works perfectly on the original living chair.
I tried this two ways, 1) create 3d mesh and 2) standalone recolor, with the same results both times. I used a base game dining chair and imported the meshes, as well as the DST images (from the original living chair) so that everything looks good. Again the only problem is that the area around the little ties is black and not transparent. It renders incorrectly both in S4S and in-game.
So my question is what am I doing wrong? How do I get those little ties to show up properly?
Many thanks in advance.
I've included both .package files as well as screenshots below:
original-chair.package here
attempt.package here
living chair recolour (original-chair.package -- everything looks good but it doesn't work as a dining chair).
dinging chair (attempt.package -- imported meshes and dst images but the ties are not rendering properly)
