Title: Gunsights
Post by: Canaris on February 13, 2005, 09:06:34 AM
Every time I fly a plane, no gunsights will show.  I have changed the gunsights to a different gunsight from the default.  AH shows that the gunsight is there on the selection and the alpha meter shows that the gunsight is black, but I can't see it when flying.

How can I get the gunsights to be seen?

Are you talking about custom gunsights?

Ive tried both custom gunsights and the default which all worked on the AH2 before the last patch was released.

the same thing is happening to me with my tank gun sites.  I can see number of rounds and the distance numbers but the cross hairs are not there.

Black is now transparent in my sights too but pink now shows through I just changed my background to black. If you want to use black in your sights try using an alfa txt file with a value of 0.

Skuzzy I don't know how it relates. But if I uncheck the hardware vertex processing box in the initial video setup I have the same gunsight problem in a tank. It just shows the number of rounds left and little tick marks to the far right. All the othe lines are gone.
 As far as plane gunsights I use waffles and they seem to be working with the option either way.
 My video card is a ATI 9800 Pro. With the latest drivers as of 2/09/2005

I am currently using my laptop due to a broken leg and cant reach my tower.  The graphics controler is a Intel 82852/82855 control family

There is no option for me to check or uncheck the vertex box.  it is shaded gray leaving me no option.

Ok am i missing something, I tried what zmeg said, but it didnt work.  I am still not seeing any of my gunsights on any plane.  What can I do because not able to see my gunsight is hard to shoot accurately.


I have a NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 video card.
