Save as DXT5 for glasses

Jose Borges · Jan 19, 2012

thanks. saving as a dxt5 worked... but i stil have a problem.
I can see through glass when inside the car but not from the outside...
do you know any fix???

thanks in advance

ok this is the problem (know). the templates downloaded from the offcial website kept making glasses not translucent. your suggestion was good and solved the problem of beeing able to see through glass from inside the car. from the outside of the car i couldn't see the driver. so i changed the templates of the vectra for those of the peugeot. It worked. know i can see through glass from the inside and from the outside BUT i cannot see the number and name on the glass... the window is just tottaly seethrough... any suggestion??
thanks

Here is the second template : http://sim-racing-evolution.fr/downloads/root/divers/VectraTemplate_GoodAlpha_hunaudieres.rar

Do you use PS or Gimp?
Gimp has some problems sometimes to save in DXT5.

ps... i can see the number from the outside but from the inside i do not...

So it is a "window"problem, not "windows".
PS with nvidia plugin or Gimp?

Jose Borges · Jan 20, 2012

ps with nvidia plugin

Send me you windows file if you want but be sure that you have taken the files I gave you.

You must use the files I gave you. The original files are bugged.
Yes, DXT5.

finally i was able to see the numbers from inside the car. i saved WINDOW file as dxt5 mx or something instead of dxt5 rgb. BUT now (LOL) can't see the banner with the color i painted it with... what's the deal with this?
