Problems with downloaded gunsights
« on: February 19, 2006, 08:06:13 AM »
I downloaded some gunsights from "Nabe's Historical Gunsights Bank" on the Useful Links section but I can't put them to work.I copied the image and pasted it on a bitmap image on the sights folder with the original ones. When I go assign it to a plane it simply gets invisible,I tried to change Alpha settings but nothing worked.

Any help is welcome

Hi JiuJitsu!

Probably the sights are in the wrong format. Please mail them to me and I'll see what's wrong and fix them for you.

Ok, I downloaded some of the sights in that page and they're ok.

If you right-click on the images in the main page , the ones which show gunsights with light blue background and choose save as, won't work because of wrong background color for gunsights.

You  must left-click on gunsight image in main page, another page will open, with the correct image to download.

I hope this helps, if not, mail me the ones that don't work for analysis and fixing.
