Crossfading transition
« on: April 04, 2007, 07:14:28 PM »

Is there any way to crossfade to scenes into one another during scene change?

Thanks!

So, just out of interest, what might be the 'Not easily' method of fading scenes from one to another?

 :)

I would like to change scenes (both with 3d actors), and fade the two scenes together.

Thanks

Well, I was thinking something like saving a screenshot to a temporary file, changing the scene, loading the screenshot into an entity, making the crossfade... probably not feasible. Or you could make a plugin :)

how about having a loader which would load dynamically a background from the next scene, make the crossfade
and then ChangeScene without FadeIn FadeOut?

Yup, that might work (more or less) for 1st person games, so Mikael might probably try to use this approach.
