Hello all, I'm a bit concerned why a loaded .png image looses some of its colours when it is displayed within Fenix. The file is of a gradient. It looks really smooth in an image editor, and in Windows Picture Viewer, but as soon as it is used as the background in my game, it becomes really ... well ... look for yourself.  left, original. right, fenix

set_mode(x,y,depth); try using set_mode(640,480,16); Standard it uses 8 bit colours (256 colours). If you add PNG-24 graphics they get converted to 15 bit automatically. also check this ____________ Kwakkel |

yeah I do set_mode(640,480,16); Is it because my PNG is 24 bit? Should I use the image.dll to load it as BMP or what ? Thanks for your help. ____________ .g105b'' |

I think it's because of the 24->16 bit conversion, check that other topic for more on that.

I'm not sure. In Graphics Gale you can save it as a 16 bit PNG, without losing too much of the quality I think... Try that ^^ ____________ Kwakkel |

You could use the filter functions in Fenix (blur(), rgbscale(), filter()) to make it a bit more smooth.
