The default transparency color is black RGB(0,0,0).

The overall transparency (alpha) of the visible sprite itself can be set using:

dbSetSpriteAlpha(int SpriteNumber,int AlphaValue )

where alpha is between 0 and 255 with 0 being invisible and 255 solid.

No matter how good your code is, someone will improve on it

You might take a look at the dbSetSprite(int ID, int backsave, int transparent) function to make sure that you're sprite is handling transparency.

Hi,

I need some help here.

I need a sprite that is solid and that I can control its alpha but I am only getting one of the two:

Alpha works but black color is see through:
dbSetSprite(1, 1, 1);
dbSetSpriteAlpha(1, 128);

Black is not solid but alpha does not work:
dbSetSprite(1, 1, 0);
dbSetSpriteAlpha(1, 128);

Thanks.
