In Blitz3D, is there a way to make a loaded image partially transparent?
Basicallly, I want to be able to fade in a logo by starting the image off completely transparent, and then reducing the transparency gradually.

Not sure how i'd accomplish this.

The best way is to use your image to texture a quad, then use EntityAlpha on the quad itself.

or use a fliped-black-box around your camera and use entityalpha on the blackbox ( yes, it seems to be the same way xD ) but it can extend to a transition Library that can be used for many things.

like this one
( using quad , and allow transition Fx, allow setting start color/end color for the transition, and a Cine Fx => Mode 16/9 )
