From White/Yellow Gun-Sight to Red Color

Recommended Posts

Guest Raden

Re the following:

 

http://forum.combata...ariant-cockpit/

 

How can I change the default, YELLOW, color of the GUN SIGHT to RED color? 

 

I found it real hard in dog-fight to shoot enemies, when background were WHIITE or SUN.

 

Can I simply use Photoshop or the easy way using the ACDsee of r that in my XP?

 

In order to have the GunSight in RED, I use only F-104G (D?) of even F-4E Cockpits in my MiG-15, 17 and 21MF snd other variant of it.

 

Thank u for ur info/replies. Awaiting ur replies...:))

yes you can use photoshop to edit the gunsight tga file, make sure it is very red and that the color goes against the sun. or you can find a gunsight tga file that uses red and simply change that aircraft cockpit data file like for example the j-6 of china of the j-6_cockpit.ini

 

[GunsightFront]

HasGunsight=TRUE

GunsightMilSize=50

GunsightName=F-100d_sight.tga ----- i believe you can change this to what every sight you want but make sure it show up and test it out , i'm not an expert in cockpit, basically swap and save, test and edit.

LeadComputing=TRUE

MinLeadRange=150

MaxLeadRange=600

DefaultLeadRange=300

MaxDepression=125

DefaultDepression=0

 

enjoy

 

if you do use photoshop make sure you understand tga files for cockpit /skinning

 

if you use or swap gun sight tga file make sure it works correctly and that it is red, just look around for a gunsight tga file

Extract gunsight tga of choice from objects cat, place in relevant cockpit folder...

 

Using Photoshop or Gimp ... open the TGA, activate the R/G/B layers in the Channels tab, use paint bucket tool, flood R/G/B layers with color of choice. Save and close
