Do the better gunsights help your aim? I use the default gunsight and shoot alright but i see these screenshots with these cool looking ones. Could someone possibly post about where i go for these?

I like the Jabo sight with two dots....it is simple and functional. I would post a link to it, but I cannot remember where I got it.

Does anyone have a gun sight that fixes the Tiger sight? I notice you can't range all the way out because the black part covers the bottom of the gun sight.

THERE IS ONLY ONE SIGHT ... The "Dot 'O Death" sight ...

Here are the sights that I use. They are alpha (illuminated) sights.

You place both the default.bmp and default_alpha.bmp into the HTC\Aces High II\sights directory and when choosing the sight in AH setup, you chose the default.bmp

You might want to backup your \sights directory before making any changes.

Fighter: Carefull here because it is named "default". This should automatically change all plane gunsights to this sight without a lot of effort.

<- default.bmp

<- default_alpha.bmp.bmp


Jabo: For this sight I explicitly go into the AH setup and choose this one for all the planes that I use for JABO. The bottom dot is what I use to line up the bomb drop on. Usually try to get 45 degree angle on drop using the lower dot.

<- default2.bmp

<- default2_alpha.bmp.bmp

Credit here to Mitsu's buddy AERO. I took one of his sights and modified it.
