I've tried. Transparencies work with the TIFFs they are misaligned
though.only the lower half is visible when replaced. I assume that the
x-axis is also misaligned when a different size is used. (Original size
is 15x15 px I was trying a 45x45 px)

To make that approach usefull (i.e. patching the bundle) the bullets
need to be placed centered in some way.



I've made screenshots of my "beefed-up" area-maps I mentioned in my
other post:

http://img131.imagevenue.com/img.php?loc=loc288&image=9effa_Area_1.jpg
Blurred, inverted and colorized (green for no encryption, red for wep
and blue for wap)

http://img147.imagevenue.com/img.php?loc=loc259&image=51acb_Area_3.jpg
Same image as above except for that the blurred ares have "topographic"
lines

http://img143.imagevenue.com/img.php?loc=loc197&image=42d10_Area_2.jpg
combination of the two above.

I don't even dare to imageine what a OpenGL version of this approach
would look like. Each area of reception drawn as a translucent dome
over it's location over the map. :-)) looks like I'm proposing a
different application by now...
