Default Aha!

Well, you see this has nothing to do with the graphic file itself, or what you do is PSP... this has to do with the XML code.

For example, take the window_pieces01.tga file. You will find your main gauge bars in that file. If you load them in PSP and open the alpha channel, you'll find that the bars are each "solid" according to the alpha layout.

However, when you are in game, you will find that the color from the gauge "bleeds" through in shades of whatever color you choose...

So it depends on the item you are drawing in the game.

Also, there is an option you can include in your individual pieces that is <transparent>true/false>/transparent>

Hope this helps!
