Hi, I'm a beginner and I have a few questions

1, How do I make the screen fade to balck and fade in?

2, How can I use my image in the change mouse command? (I want to use an image as a mouse cursor)

3, How to I increase the Frames Per Second? (images are moving too slowly)

Thanks for reading this

1. Here's one way ...
Have a single pixel black image, make a sprite that uses it, stretch the sprite to full screen size, adjust the alpha setting on the sprite from 0 to 255 (transparent to solid) to fade out, and from 255 to 0 to fade in.

2. Just hide the current mouse pointer and position a sprite that the mouse coordinates

3. Switch the sprite backsave option off (see the SET SPRITE command)

For 1. you can also use the SET GAMMA command instead of the alpha values of a sprite.
