Probably the dumbest question ever.
I can't find out anywhere so..
How do I add transparancy for monster images etc? I notice there is a pinkish color as the background for monsters.

Re: Probably the dumbest question ever.
It's called 'power pink' elsewhere, I believe its the full 255,255,0 on red and blue to make magenta. Have that as your background colour in jpegs and RTC automatically ignores it.

Maybe someone can explain why a front wall 1 always has a blue bar at the top and bottom when i try it out? driving me mad.

Re: Probably the dumbest question ever.
How did you generate the wall graphic?

Re: Probably the dumbest question ever.
Not sure if there are any scaling issues to give you the blue bar then. What you could do is, in the RTC editor, get the actual picture up (at whatever size), take a screen capture, adjust the size as needed, and compare it to see if there is a difference in size.
EDit: That's linflas's, right? I think Sop[hia also had a wall creator called WHACK you could try, and once more compare outputs to see if there is an issue.

Re: Probably the dumbest question ever.
Ok got it sorted =)
My error as I thought. Just a size mistake of the image.

Re: Probably the dumbest question ever.
RTCWM has a little bug that creates those lines. You need to change the grabbed size or edit it out in a gfx program.
Note that Beowuuf said JPEG above. Don't use JPEG. Use PNG if you want transparent images, JPEG introduces compression artifacts which don't work with a pink background.

Re: Probably the dumbest question ever.
Thanks, Gambit.
My god this is hard work. Might just stick with the defaults so I can get something done

Re: Probably the dumbest question ever.
Yep, it's *very* hard work. I've tinkered with custom graphics for RTC/DSB for *many* years now....! Very time consuming.....!
