my sprites still arnt transparent!!

by Sean Greenwood · in Game Design and Creative Issues · 07/28/2009 (8:04 am) · 1 replies


Im coming from "game maker" and im getting use to the swing of things in torque game builder, I use "Gimp" to edit my sprites and make the backgrounds of the sprites transparent. When I save them in png form they appear to be transparent but when i add them to the game a white background appears.
what can i do to fix this!?

If I remember right, transparency is alpha value and deleting from a photo in gimp doesn't actually affect its transparency.

I colored everything I wanted transparent as wight and then selected what I wanted to be transparent and converted color to alpha (forget the actual command, don't have gimp at work).
