Re: Royal Lytham and St Annes 2020 Finished

I could give an example of how one could potentially use the alpha channel to create some transparency effects in theory for flags. For example you could make triangular flags, or even irregular shape flags like the one for the country Nepal, or perhaps a tattered flag with holes in it if you wante...

Re: Royal Lytham and St Annes 2020 Finished

You are right Dan, but they can have alpha channels as long as they leave no transparency, at least all flags I've seen out of Links Extender have been 32 bit with alpha channel (wouldnt surprise me if APCD doesnt even accept 24 bit flags). I'm far from being a graphics pro, but I have noticed whil...

Re: Royal Lytham and St Annes 2020 Finished

did you add flags to the flag sticks? That was the only thing missing from the last version that was out. barry There indeed seems to be an issue with the flag graphic that I hadnt noticed. I recommend no one download this version for now (that was just made available) as I am working on a fix alre...

Re: Opening Microsoft courses in APCD 1.5

Is there a way to open courses bought from Microsoft in APCD 1.5? Every time I try to open one, it says it can't load it/is not a crz (even though it is?) There is no way that any of us know about. We were never supposed to be able to access them. They are off-limits and I think are most likely cop...

Re: new 2D trees

You could split them up into several objects and stack on top of eachother, probably only works vertically (impossible to line them up horizontally so that it looks right from all angles). ??? Maybe I misunderstood. How to you keep a "stacked" image up in the air? Doesn't performing a S&a...

Re: new 2D trees

No you can have 2D objects high up in the sky like a bird for example. If you move an object on the Z plane so that the bottom of the 2d object is, say, 9.0 yards above the ground directly underneath its planting spot (the green dot), then change the elevation underneath it, it will only ever snap ...

Re: new 2D trees

Howdy, I'm making a batch of trees for a course. My question is do they HAVE to be 1024x1024? it really limits the detail and realism in them, I'm guessing the answer is yes but thought I'd check anyways. love to go 2048x2048 if possible. thanks Hi Dorse... Just a note to remind you that 2D file di...

Re: Strange happenings here

The other night when I was playing around with that Walmart Desktop shortcut, one of the things I tested was turning off my Windows 7 Firefox AD BLOCKER. When I came back to the forum, I was getting ads also. They stopped when I re-enabled my ad blocker. I use an ad blocker called "uBlock Origi...
