Another question with a "hopefully" easy answer.
How can I make everything in the image nonteamcolorable, except for the badge and banner?
So far I have tried grey scale badges, black ones, and white ones, nothing works..:(
Is there an easy answer to this?

Unfortunately it's impossible, as far as I know.

To make an area of a texture non-teamcolourable you need to remove it from the _dirt layer. A pure white _dirt layer makes the texture use the _default and nothing else (see the tutorial). The problem is that the badge and banner only show up if there's a non-white bit of the _dirt layer (so that you can use the _dirt layer to battle-damage the badge as well) so you can't make it non-colourable and have a badge as well.
