Modifying CCIP Fall Line and Gun Cross Colors

[+CSomers611 12]

Before anyone says this isn't accurate, yes, I know but I'm tinkering!

I've added CCIP to the F-105B, I've even changed the color of the Fall Line and Gun Cross. However, the issue is the new colors aren't showing up in game and I cannot figure out why.

Here's the Fall Line and Gun Cross modified using GIMP:

Here's those files within F-105B Cockpit Folder:

Here's my entry in F-105B_COCKPIT.INI:

[GunsightFront]
HasGunsight=TRUE

Any ideas why I can't get this to work like I want?

You can change the colors for the .tga files that are called in the cockpit.ini. For what is defined and called in the avionics.ini, it is monochrome and defined by "HUDColor=0.0,1.0,0.0,0.7", only the alpha value is used from the tga called in the avionics.ini.

I appreciate this information, I thought this was a possibility but didn't know if I changed the actual color in GIMP if it did anything or not...guess I learned. Thanks again.
