Import mask

[Shadow]

Hello,
I would like to know, how I can use the function "import mask"
in the room areas section.
What do I have to draw, so that AGS can recognize it?

[Ytterbium]

Well, you have to have a mask exported first. All you need to do is import the mask file.

You have to draw your mask to the same dimensions as the room that is being masked.  The mask has to be in 256 colours using the locked portion of the game's default pallette.

try using as many primary colours as possible, i don't really stress over getting the exact colours cause i can just floodfill and change whichever i want to whichever colour i want

just sayin'

Thanks, but do I have to draw only the Walkbehinds, without the background?

[Ishmael]

Yes, of cource. In the mask, all black is defined as 'no walkbehind', color 0, empty.

Okay, thank you I've got it
