Well, in my game, I have splash screens. The gamma is set to 0, the image is loaded, then via a for next loop, the image fades in, the program waits, image fades out. It has always worked fine, and today it just randomly stopped working. I didn't even touch the code (not that I know of anyways.) I went back and checked everything, is doesn't seem to work. Here's the code:



Then it repeats the process but with a second screen. Like I said, it worked fine, and now it doesn't. Anyone see a problem with the code or know why it stopped working?
The only way to prevent all lag in a game is not to make the game.

Running in full screen exclusive mode, your code works fine for me. Sure you're not running in a Window or something?

You could tidy the code up a bit by the following simple change:

for c=0 to 255 step 8
set gamma c,c,c : sync
next c

Much shorter

here's the way i fade in and out.. its a little different and it runs in a sub .. but it works every time

just put it at the end of your project and type gosub when you want to use it... simple


vice versa for fade out...
