Trying to mod the VS gauge... Red Effect

Hello!

 

I want to train flying the MI8... or to be exact: I train to LAND this ship, flying it is not that hard ^^

 

I wanted to do a simple mod for the Vertical speed gauge and mark the 3 Meter marks because I find it way easyier to hold it that way and not entering VRS.

 

I did mod it with Photoshop (see screenshot). But when I turn on the red backlights of the instruments I get this ugly red gauges (also see screenshot).

 

I used the little converting program named "DXTBmp" to convert the .dds file into a Bitmap, modified it in Photoshop and converted it back into .dds with DXTBmp.

I also tried modifying the dds file direct with Photoshop via the NVIDIA DDS Plugin but with this nothing appears in the cockpit regarding my mod.

 

So, as I am not that experienced with Photoshop I wanted to ask for help from you guys!

 

Thank you!

I just realised that the arrow on the gauge is also marking the 3m/s Range...

 

If anyone knows, I would nontheless like to know what i was doing wrong regarding the red gauges.
