Updated default.bmp if you liked the old school AH2 gunsight.
« on: January 23, 2016, 06:11:36 PM »
I just noticed what the Beta default.bmp looks like...... :bolt:

Here are three variations on the old AH2 theme constructed to look like they are projected through WW2 reticle plates. They are 256x256, so just copy them into the Beta sights folder over the existing one. Remember to keep a copy of this zip file.

default.bmp




default2.bmp




default3.bmp

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

Would you happen to still have the old default  p51D sight? I remember it being like the k14 but white and way more in depth

That reminds me, I was going to ask you this before Bustr - I always used the single "death dot" sight in AH, which I think was made just by taking the OP gun sights and erasing everything but the dot in the middle - I haven't tried it, but will that sight work as default from the old game to the beta, or do you have to create a new one.  I don't want to copy over any files that shouldn't go and screw up the program and have to reinstall it again.

All custom gunsights you have for AH2 work in AH3. The new graphics engine will make many look fat.

Look in your gunsight list in the beta for: ukTp1MKIII

Turn the alpha slider up full bright and have fun. The Tempest and late Typhoon were shipped with the only gunsight in WW2 that projected a dot as the standard reticle. And I included the K14A single dot fixed reticle mode: usaK14crs

Do you mean this thing? Warning, that picture is a jpg and won't work as a gunsight in the game.
