[SOLVED] Render BufferedImage with transparency

[pspeed]

@xorinzor

As for knowing it’s not transparent, I render it on top of a colored box (light gray), I set the QueueRenderBucket to Bucket.transparent too but to no avail.

Can’t see code… so can’t comment.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO frustrating to try to help and not have enough info.

Was the background color thing also in the transparent bucket? Was it in some other bucket? Who knows?!?!

Transparency works fine when you have everything setup, though.

Might be helpful for trying to fix this on your own:

Alpha/Transparency Sorting, Your Z-buffer, and You

Since this comes up every three or four days, I decided to put together some visual aids. There is often a lot of confusion with how pixels get processed in relation to the z-buffer and why sorting is important. Most importantly it can be mind-warping trying to wrap one’s head around how to ‘fix’ the cases where proper sorting isn’t possible. Hopefully these diagrams help show the futility of it all… I mean the trade offs one has to make to get transparency looking its best in the general cas…
