go into the gunsights folder and delete all the files (including any NON image files so the complete folder is empty), then take and DL this sight:

http://www.hitechcreations.com/misc/sights/gadget/f4u1c.bmp

right click the link and "save target as"

DO NOT modify this file in any way, except to rename it to "default"

then cut and paste it into the C:\Program Files\HTC\Aces High\Sights folder

then try to run the game.

DO NOT do this while the game is running and minimized in the background.

if that works, you had a corrupt file in the gunsights folder, or a gunsight that was the wrong file type.

all gunsights must be 64x64 (or 128x128 or 256x256) pixels, and 8 bit color (256 colors ONLY).

any gunsight that has an alpha must be named properly too. example:

default.bmp
default_alpha.bmp

otherwise the sight will not work correctly.

you can rename sight just like the sounds folders example:

p51d.bmp

then whenever you fly that plane that sight is used by default, without going into the game and "manually" setting a gunsight.

if you have a alpha for that sight it would need to be:

p51d_alpha.bmp


ALL alpha files must be the same size as the main sight bmp, AND be 256 color GRAYSCALE only.

hope that hleps.
I don't know what to put here yet.
