Tom Speirs Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 That's a legacy thing. I should remove it. It does nothing now. It was a performance thing when GameEx wasn't running under Direct3d. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a performance thing when GameEx wasn't running under Direct3d.Bummer, I was hoping it was something to the fact that I could load a video with a separate alpha channel video and it would together as an Alpha Video File, oh well, Thank Tom!

u-man Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Bummer, I was hoping it was something to the fact that I could load a video with a separate alpha channel video and it would together as an Alpha Video File, oh well, Thank Tom!You can use Movies with Alphachannel.... but the downside is, only as a Background. Therefore a Alpha-Channel becomes useless, as you can not put something under your Background-Movie.The thing is, we cannot choose or have a Video as a Foreground-Layer, only pictures.... at least i dont know how .Hope that helps.... and yes Headkaze new Program sounds promising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headkaze Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 If you want to be able to play videos with alpha channel then you will have to wait for a future release. I've been having a play and I've managed to get a video with alpha playing. Source video was from here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
u-man Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 That are even more better news !!!Its not the problem to play a movie with alpha-channel. The problem is, you can not use a movie+alpha channel as a Foreground-Layer. All Videos are on the Background-Layer, exception would be the videos you use as Logo, Image1 or Image2. But they are also not on top.I can not wait to see this new features for theme-creators. sounds very promising, keep up the brilliant work. I can imagine, that with these features, GameEx will be the best Front-End AND the most beautiful one . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headkaze Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 There will be no hard-coded layers in a future release... you will be able to put the video anywhere you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazzleHP Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 There will be no hard-coded layers in a future release... you will be able to put the video anywhere you want ! will that include all theme elements?! And will there be more layers other than fore and background? So we can "stack" our theme elements? I'm not trying to be a pain in your behind headkaze, but i'm so frikkin eager to see this new engine you guys have been working on, and hinting at recently I have a feeling it's gonna blow our minds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
