UI Problem

Postby Allied » Sun Sep 20, 2009 3:50 am

Howdy all,

I've been making a replacement main.tga HUD file, but I've run into a problem I simply can't understand.

Note how the edges in Good are smooth, but those in Bad are "ghosted". Any explanations?

I cropped it in one go, using the polygonal selection I went along unchopped image choosing points. After that I did select inverse, filled with Clear, and went on to export. I really don't understand how this can happen, but maybe some of you know something about the engine :).

Thanks in advance,
Allied

If I get your problem right - you have to make edges smoothed in the second picture in alpha-channel.
And personally I like "Bad" more than "Good" one.

Also you have to remember the UI is drawn as 640x480 picture, than it is scaled to your screen size... Maybe there's some scale side effect.
