Is there any way to make an actor slowly fade in without using differently shaded sprites?

Yeah

First, go to create actor - Script Editor

Code: Select all

transp = 1;


Now go to Draw Actor - Script Editor

Code: Select all

transp-=.02;

Your welcome

Oooo! What about fading transitions? Like the entire window/screen fades out and fades in black or white.

Make an actor, a black actor the size of the screen or use canvas (Canvas tutorial in tutochao) use the erase function if canvas.

How exactly would I get it to fade?
I'm thinking a transparency increment over a certain amount of time?

Yeah, but if your using Canvas, it'd be allot easier if you just used a double or a (real) variable to determine the transparency of the "erase" value. Call it c_trans for canvas trans

Code: Select all

erase(0, 0, 0, c_trans);


Now, at Create Actor, have this code:

Code: Select all

c_trans = 1;


Then of course, put the erase code in Draw Actor. Now, when an event is called, (In draw actor, use a variable to make the switch)

Code: Select all

c_trans-=.02;


Now it'll slowly fade out to black.

What about white?

change the 0s in the erase code with 255

Oh! Alright! lol I can't believe I didn't notice that it was an RGB scale. =w=

lol
