WWDubya Pilot	posted 02-14- 03:42 PM Here's one that has probably been answered, but here it is anyway: Is there a particular color (or range of collors) that is displayed in-game as invisible in the SDOE color palette? The reason I ask is because I'd like to put some damage skins together that will display "real" holes in the textures for rips and bullet hits. Any help would be appreciated. ------------------ Fly Well, Dub Visit the Wing Walkers IP: Logged
Yardstick Pilot	posted 02-15- 11:47 AM I think what you are asking about will require the use of alpha textures. As far as I know in SDOE the non-displaying colour in an alpha channel is pure black (that's what I have used for the cockpit reflections and gunsight reticules). The texture flag in OPS will have to be set to alpha. Have a look at the P-51D.sm, to see how this is done. You will need to have a paint package that can handle layers and alpha masks (I use Paint Shop Pro 7). ------------------ Yardstick painted this IP: Logged
