WB3gm

WarBirdsIII Gunsight Maker for Windows

This is a quick and dirty utility to assist in making your own gunsights for WB3. It does not have the capabilities that someone with a graphics editor would have, but will do the job nicely. However, included is TGA Creator that can turn 2 images (gif, jpg, bmp) into a single TGA with alpha channel. So, that can be used for more elaborate sights.

DOWNLOADS

  • WB3gm.zip (34k, Version 1.0 2/25/2003) -- This has the minimum amount of files needed and will probably work on most PC's. Unzip the files into a directory and double click wb3gm.exe to run the program.
  • Full_WB3gm.zip (2.1meg, Version 1.0 2/25/2003) -- This download is the full install including all the DLL's, etc. If you were unable to get the file to run after unzipping WB3gm.zip, then try doing this. Unzip the files and run setup.exe to install. Watch your prompts carefully and do not let it overwrite any newer DLL's. Then run the program from your Startup Menu. This does not include the most up to date, ini file.
  • wb3gm.ini (2/9/2005 update) -- This file will need to be updated when new planes come out, just right-click and do a save as to replace yours with it.
