Most airports in the US have the name written in large white letters on one of the runways.I have always used FSSC to reproduce this by placing a DXT3 file with an Alpha channel in the appropriate spot as a Background Image and checked the "Visible in FS" box. (they have to be 512 x 512 1024 x 512 etc)Amazingly the objects I created (first in FS2002 then moved to FS2004) still work fine in FSX (even with ground scenery shadows on!)But I was wondering if there is another program these days that can achieve the same thing. I have used resample.exe to place much larger polygons with transparency but that seems a bit cumbersome...Any ideas?Geoff
