Why not implement a psd, photoshop image format, as a possible way to show panels, this way all the layers tranparencies would work much better, and other effects would be easier to do. readingg psd format would be great, is this on the forecast in the future?

asked same for .png files..

^^

sorry, but that just sounds very stupid.

i must agree, michael, this indeed sounds very unnecessary.

xD

Well it would make it nicer since you don't have to take care of the alpha channel manually (transparency is taken from the layer settings)), but then again creating the alpha channel manually is not really that much of a problem.

same with png..

I´m working on a rpg-maker in 3d. I can´t say to the users "Just make a TGA und create a alpha channel..and..and.." many users don´t know how to use that..

If you have an idea, how to read ong, and use it´s auto-transparency, it would be better to use for inexperienced to use the rpg-maker.

i don´t think that´s stupid.. I think that´s user-friendly.

you should find all necessary information about .png on http://www.wotsit.org

Then you can implement the functionality for the users of your RPG maker. Hey, don't complain - you WANTED to program after all

o.O ok.. I´m not a pro programmer.. so i need to know how to implement the functions

ok its your opinioon, but its not stupid or anything.

Its not because of the alpha channel of course!! im not stupid, its because of the glow effects, bevel effects and everything that gives the layers effects to read them... same for shadow effect,it would simplify alot some effects, and im saying this because im working and i know what work you have to wast just to use glow effects with alpha channel.
