Ok here, feeling stupid, have just come back to using AGS after a long hitatus (thanks to working), I have just been adding a new background and tested this. When I entered the new room then exited it, back into the original room, all the characters in the original room changed to a semi transparent, making them look washed out. I dont even know how this happened! I havent even touched anything that has anything to do with colour scaling. What happened was, I went into the character tab on AGS and added an interaction with a character (which is a wagon) so that I could enter it as a new room. Does any one know how this could have happened? I have tried to find the scaling transparency thing but being away so long I dont even remember (cursing bad memories! :D) please dont suggest the tutorials, I have looked and yes searched but its too broad sorry. I just dont have a lot of time to go through it again, and I'm sorry I have to ask this question.
Does it happen every time?
Could you upload a screen shot?
Scaling and transparency are two different things, btw.
Ok... when I first start the game its fine, then I go inside the wagon (which is the new room I just added tonight after not using AGS for so long), then I come out of the wagon back into the original room, and the characters are all washed out as seen in the picture below. Then I go to another room on the right or left and the characters are fine again, then coming back into that original room, they'e washed out again.

MODIFY:
I just remembered I accidently did something in the room interactions pane, when I clicked on one of the interactions to edit it, such as New Room and clicked Change, then in the new box "Configure Parameter", the 'variable' Room Var I added something with value of 0 then changed it to 5, but still does not work. How do I delete this variable? It wont delete. I wonder if this accidental variable I did caused this wash out?
2nd EDIT:
Ok sorry, this has been solved. I played around more and found where to fix the washed out problem. I apparently did have this issue a year ago, so found my post from last year and realised the washed out issue was in a complicated place - the region area field even though I didnt touch the regions. It seems to automatically change itself if you add a room from the 1st one. I do not understand why this happens.... but I changed the numbers to 0% in lighting under regions field. Its all coming back to me (fast, thank goodness. *feeling like a fool as I should be more experienced by now*) ;)
