Can anyone tell me how do you make custom transparent textures with the Source Engine.. I tried with black or white color over the edges i want to be transparent but it didnt work!

You need to add an alpha channel to your texture, an additional layer that tells the engine what parts of the texture will be transparent. Look at the Breen decal here.

I'd recommend you search for a tutorial on how to do this with whatever program you're using to make the materials.

If you're already doing this, then what does your .vmt look like? You need an additional parameter in there to tell the engine to render it transparent ( $translucent 1 ).
