Hey, I was wondering if anyone could explain this...

Image opened in a image program (paintshop)
[img][/img]

Image opened and then used as a sprite in DBP
[img][/img]

The image is saved as a PNG.
The color depth is set to True Color (24 to 32bit).
The sprite is not resized.
This is also true for loading images, and then pasteing them.

I have been trying to fix this for a while now , any help is greatly preciated !

Thanks

When loading the image add a "1" after the image number.

Use:
Load image "Image.png",1,1
Instead of:
Load image "Image.png",1

It does say this in the updated help file for U5:

"A Texture Flag of zero will treat the image as a texture and load to fill a texture surface in memory. A value of one will preserve the image without adding mipmaps, scaling or filtering and so retaining its pixel perfect quality."

So, problem solved come that release (providing people read it of course).

Cheers,

Rich
