REQ: allow transparency in conback.png

Open blaps opened this issue 10 months ago • 4 comments

Currently, conback does not support transparency. Image (The white in this conback.png should be transparent)

Example of how it could be used:

Have a nice day!

Well, keep in mind it's cumulative with scr_conalpha. (scr_conalpha 0.something) Image

scr_conalpha 1

Regardless of conalpha, this all happens against a black background when looking at the console disconnected from a game (this was already the case before introducing this, as could be observed by reducing conalpha.) I checked whether it was related to gl_clear/clearcolor, but nope.

That should be manageable and I can submit a patch as-is. :)

I hadn't noticed this. Of course, the main menu shows conback when disconnected. Result:

Abit discombobulated. Do we want a setting for console background color?

I don't think we do but might have to either

  • accept that transparency in the console image will show on the menu
  • create some hoops to jump to in order to show the console image without alpha on the menu (but then if it's been designed especially for alpha, it might be just as silly)
