I use a red sight which I prefer

That would be cool. It seems as it is now that the gunsights do not have opacity built into them, rather they have a transparency code instead.

How bout some opacity/alpha channel code HT? How much would it affect FPS? If it impacts significantly, how about the option for those who's setups can take it, to let us use it?

I agreed with that, we need realistic illuminated gunsights now. :)
it will also fix dark gunsight when flying at night or overcast...

HT, please tell us your opinion?

thanks,

it's fairly simple to make gunsights...
just make a 128x128 pixel bmp 256 colors and make what u like... make sure to draw opaque so the background doesn't show up
here's a few i made...
