[hlp] making sprites

lillbrorsan

I have sprviewer and i exported the shotgun crosshair and changed it, saved the new one and made it into an sprite, the problem is, its black when i try it ingame and i dont know what i have missed.
Can someone tell me exactly how to do from the part were u have the bmp and are ready to edit to were the sprite actually works ingame?

There's a tutorial in the help section somewhere which I used when I changed a couple of sprites. At a guess I'd say you're using the wrong type of sprite compile or whatever the process is called.

You used the wrong transparencies, crosshairs use indexalpha, odds are you used additive. Here's what it should look like, if you use sprite wizard like me.
