Default Custom Compass - Huh? - 11-26-2002, 01:47 AM

Okay, so I've spent most of the day modding my game. Making things look Spearheadish in Allied Assault. Just general goofing off, basically. Editing localization and sound files. Playing with the HUD. Anyway, so I'm making a custom compass and I go into the game to check it out and it's simply not there. Huh? I downloaded some other mods to check that my directory tree and what not was correct, and it was. But when I load the game, no back to the compass. Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?

I guess my question is are there specific requirements for things such as image size and surrounding colors, etc

Your alpha channel is clear. That's why it doesn't work. You have to make a new one.

Ok, an alpha channel is mask so to say. If you put the transparency at 50%, u can see through the part that u "masked" partly. As you go up in percent masked, the less u can see through it. Look at minefields scopes, he has some that have a darker part on them than others. Thats the alpa channel. <------ Thats the most noobish way i can talk lol, hope it helps ya bro
