in my game , i'd like the screen to be black , then turn slowly to the game display , how to do that ??

and by the way , how to slowly blind a camera view into another , to change of camera ?

A program is sensed to be a conventional mean to give orders to a computer and not being obscure,weird,and full of traps ,that is closer to magic stuff (Dave Small).

Check out this thread.

While it is in the DBP section, the general ideas are still valid.

the fading thing is easy...

set gamma 0,0,0
do
inc R
inc G
inc B
if R>255 then R=255
if G>255 then G=255
if B>255 then B=255
if R<>255 and G<>255 and B<>255 then set gamma R,G,B
sync
loop

This just increments some variables until 255, and if the RGB variables, stating Red, Green and Blue, aren't equal to 255, it will change gamma, so it stops when the screen is at full color.

I'm not sure if it's 255 or 100... don't have DB right now

/edit: forgot the set gamma 0,0,0
