unnown Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 top left square should be the same color (ie this will be your transparent color)it will translate that color to invisible, so in case of your desk, the top left pixel of the tileset should be that color of green(it might be possible you have a mix of color, than you have to recolor your image) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian666 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 the left top square should be only your mask color, so in your case, green, because the engine uses that to determine which color to make see tru for duck sake… unnown, stop ninja-ing me xd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake2255 Posted March 28, 2013 Author Share Posted March 28, 2013 Im not sure I understand what you mean top left square, the top left square is apart of the tileset it has a grass patch there…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unnown Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 and that's the problem, it should be the transparent colorlook at how the normal tilesets are done.top-left square is always a set color which is used for transparancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake2255 Posted March 28, 2013 Author Share Posted March 28, 2013 Does it have to be the SAME color on every tile set or just the first one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unnown Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 every tileset can have it's own color i believe, just try it out and see what happens  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake2255 Posted March 28, 2013 Author Share Posted March 28, 2013 Nope, I set the top left tile to white and nothing still green background…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unnown Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 yes, because white isn't green =Pif you set it to white, all white will become transparent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Dude, it has to be set to GREEN. Becuase green is around ALL your tiles, so the VERY first pixel of the image has to be the color of the rest of the background. So make it green, not white.See? The top left is left black because the background is black, and you dont want black to show up around the items, so they left a 32x32 black box, although it just needs to be the first pixel, I believe.EDIT: duck you unnown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wortel Angels Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 So many replys and no one know why…If you are not using DX8 then will it never be working... the tileset which you use got transparency what means the thing around it theres an transparent color which makes the first tile-color darker = not removed anymorewhat does that mean ? -> Remove the transparency from your Tileset and it will work but the tileset will look bad then maybe...

His tileset contains no transparency whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vortigem Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I think what MA means is, delete the now "green background color" into a transparency. This easily done with Gimp or an art program of your preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Even that being so, that's not going to fix the problem. It has to be the top right pixel, that will be the transparency. He shouldn't be having any problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian666 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 perhaps its a jpg, and since that tends to have minute differences, it wont work? just thinking  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 > perhaps its a jpg, and since that tends to have minute differences, it wont work? just thinking Exactly why I want him to post the tileset. I'll try and fix it myself, it'll take like 3 and a half seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian666 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 yeah, that would help a lot  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
achap89 Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Make the top left pixel is the exact same color. I find it easier to simply use a bright green, but that is simply preference. Also, like the above posts state, double check the file type to make sure it is the same as all the others. Re-save it as a bitmap. (Bmp) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
