Problems with TGB GUI

by Quentin Headen · in General Discussion · 10/16/2010 (8:49 pm) · 1 replies

Hello everyone! I am trying to make a game in TGB, but I am having many problems. One of those problems deals with the GUI. When the game starts up, I have a GUI splash screen for my team logo and then the next splash shows the logo of "Torque Powered". For some reason, when the move the mouse around on this screen and the main menu GUI, the background doesn't seem to refresh.

Here is a picture of the problem: img193.imageshack.us/img193/7671/torqueproblem.png
WHAT IN THE WORLD? I can't seem to figure out how to fix this issue. One thing I do notice is that it occurs on GUIs with transparent backgrounds. When there is a non transparent PNG image covering the screen, it doesn't happen. Please help.

Thanks

    Hey everyone! While doing some tinkering around, I found out what the issue is. Torque's GUI rendering can't handle transparent images. I even tried it in TGE 1.5.2 and got the same result. So if anyone has this issue, make sure you cover the screen with a non transparent background image.

    Well, problem solved. :)
