Could it work for that purpose??  |
Hitman,
Most probably. The original dialsfdb.tga file has the inner circle (vernier) outer circle (compass), and the outer ring (pretty stuff) as parts of the gyrocompass. Out of frustration with knowing how to use the the clip settings correctly, I made my own vernier file rather than modifying the dialsfdb.tga file.
Bottom line, there are two ways to skin the cat depending on how your dial was built (One file or many files) and how how you want to proceed.
The only bright idea of mine was creating a new object in dials.cfg for the vernier and then changing the static vernier in the menu_1080_786.ini file from a static image to a dynamic image that is controlled by the new object in dials.cfg.
