If someone can please send me the 'Translucent-gray1.bmp' image. My version of VP9 does NOT have this image file anywhere. I need it to make ramps translucent. I am making the ramps and went to import that image and it's nowhere to be found i hunted thru all my programs for it, and can't locate it anywhere. Please anyone?

hey farlos,
do you have photoshop?
I use a texture I made myself, but if I send you the psd file, you can use it to make transparent ramps of any color.
I'll post it when I get home from work

um no I have Photobie and gimp but gimp I dont know how to use yet I am having all sorts of graphical probs as you will see in the post but I will make do read it in the post I will make

Whew! Ok, here are the problems and the answers (kind of) In the following pics, in the first one, if you squint real hard you can see that middle ramp! That is how translucent is showing on my computer, along with the graphic streaks across the lower half of the pin. the plastics are all messed up too, but if I remove the pics from all plastics and make the ramps visible during my builds then i can get by. so far, anyhow! I have yet to make more than one ramp, and don't know how much worse the graphic problems can possibly get. I updated direct x and all my video updates too but that is the best it gets. So, Yes, I CAN make pins in VP9 but I can't see half my benefits (the plastic piks, the see-thru ramps, etc) But what I'm doing is working with two tables one with pics (plastics and ramps, if needed) the other one, the actual pin where everything is copied into and saved! So i can get by, it'll just look weird until I finish it then I can 'click' on all the plastics and get all the pics back up (make ramps invisible etc) save and deliver it! that last pic is how I will be building it from now on. I must keep ramps visible and plastic pics off for now so far it is working, except of course I still have no flippers or plunger visible.
