Damn little transparency holes! How avoid them?

Postby Diana Kennedy » Sun Dec 18, 2005 1:56 am

Well, not all graphics are supposed to have some transparency. The sky as an example. The problem I encounter is that GE wants to put transparency by any means. Like here, in my beautiful sky. There are transparency holes.

See the black stain in the upper left part? That's a transparency hole. How can I avoid these?

Remenber, game editor always pick the firts pixel in the image as transparent, firts i tought it was the color that had the most pixel, and that resulted of ugly image.

If you you use 32bit images, the transparency information you come from the image transparent channel, not from first pixel.
Game Editor is an open source game creator software that's wants to pay it's developers to keep evolving.
