I Actually Have a Relevant Question.

Huzzah !

While working with some older German A/C skins, I discovered one [a Ju-88] with a non see-thru canopy. Using DXTBmp and PSP, I was able to clear the canopy by creating an Alpha layer.

However, it's just a little TOO clear now, and looks.... odd.

Is there a method to "tint" the glass that does not require manipulating the MDL file ?

Thanx in advance :salute:

Here's the combo that I have had the best success using:

Paint the glass on the texture file with RGB code 167, 167, 167. For the alpha, use RGB code 129, 129, 129.

OBIO
 
In combination with Obio's suggestion, don't forget to vary the level of transparency in the alpha. Black is fully transparent, levels of grey lesser so.

Excellent !


Thanks, Cats - I will try these suggestions ASAP !

OldWheat, you have a PM...

PROGRESS REPORT:

The combination of OBIO and AGAS solutions has made life a lot more bearable for my Flight Crews !

Thank You, All !
 
I've found many FS2K and CFS1 planes have this, it's annoying. I've found also many of the RAF662 site's planes for CFS2 have this glass problem.

Which model Ju-88 is that SC? That gun protruding from the lower nose makes for a good strafer.
