jWB3gm

Java WarBirdsIII Gunsight Maker for MacOSX*

*will also work with PC's having JRE 1.3 or better

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.

Special thanks to Darron"helix"Forehand for the Mac testing
