I want to create a custom zoom mask, but I didn't find any tutorials. Is it essentially the same problem as creating a cross-hair?

Extract some pre-existing stock zoom masks using firescythe's batch bitmap extractor and extract in tga format and you will see that it is essentially the same method when creating HUD element bitmaps. You need the actual HUD bitmap rgb and the alpha for transparency.

Hmm,that reticule and zoom mask looks familiar...I bet it's a DMR(but that's way too obvious anyway).What program do you use to edit TGA files? Edited by Dumb AI on Jan 12, 2012 at 11:25 PM

Well, I used GIMP, because I don't have photoshop on this computer. p.s. Yes, it's a DMR. Fixing it up and trying to make it purdy.

O_O Edited by Dumb AI on Jan 13, 2012 at 10:29 AM lol yes, that's a Focus Rifle in the background. Bobble and I are still trying to get the Plasma Launcher to function the way in Reach, but we kinda ran out of steam.. Plus it needs to be textured. As for the Focus Rifle, I'm giving it animations. :D But that needs to be textured too...
