VX image problem!

[Xyphon]

For most of my images, when I go to import them, there is no 'transparent' option and just imports it instantly. Im guessing it's because I did not format them right or something...

So can someone seperate these?

Um... if it takes out the transparencies ok, then I don't think that you would need that option, whenever it does that to me it works just fine.

No, I need the transparency because the background is green. If I make the background white then theres a white boarder surrounding it.. I need to make it blank.


EDIT: Figured it out.

For some reason, the program won't recognize when something needs the transparency to be set.  Here's some things you could try:

• Try importing it a few times.  Sometimes, this will work, and I'm not sure why it doesn't recognize it the first time.
• Try changing the file name and importing it like that.
• If all else fails, you can download a program that can set transparencies.  I recommend Paint.net.

If you use Paint.net...

Go into the color window (if you don't see it, click on Window>Colors) and click on the "More>>" button.  Go down to the bottom right, where it says "Transparency - Alpha" and set the value to 0.  Click on the fill bucket now.  Click on right-most option on the fill bucket options bar (the two boxes).  Then, move the "Tolerance" slider to 0% and click on the green background to make the background transparent.  Then, use "Save As..." and save it in the folder Game>Graphics>Characters.

Edit: You figured it out by the time I finished typing. :tongue:

It depends on if the file is a Jpg or a PNG.  if it is a PNG, it will automatically assume there is a alpha layer and skip the transparency selection screen.
