Gauges Alpha channel bitmaps

[Guest Fabrizio Berretta]

When i make an Alpha channel image with Adobe Photoshop, i can save the image only as ".TGA". If i save the image as ".BMP" Alpha channel information are lost.What do i can do to convert this ".TGA" image into a ".BMP" image for FS gauges purpose ?

What you need to do is save the file as a .PSD file. Then open the .PSD file in Imagetool, and decrease the color to 8bit, then save the file as a bitmap. This should work for you.Kobie :-wave
