[quote]And what does the "file=$texture_A.bmp" do if the texture= line is the one the gauges actualy go to? Some have it and some don't.

Okay I have found a viewer that will show me what texture is assigned to what surface, but will it tell me about these special textures that are invisible? What else is special about them besides they are invisible? Do they start out as regular bitmaps or dds files and then made transparent?

Yeah.. lotsa cross-talk.. as in jumping from one concept to another, before fully understanding any of them..

gestalt:

A physical, biological, psychological, or symbolic configuration or pattern of elements so unified as a whole that its properties cannot be derived from a simple summation of its parts.


That's my new, favorite word
