Alpha blending without Sprite3D?

Post by Fleath// »

I decided to rewrite one of my projects as the code was pretty sub-par, I got to removing the Sprite3D functions because they weren't used to anything overly vital and they pushed up the system requirements for the program (my goal was a lightweight and fast program)
I've only come across one need for this, I have an area of the screen darken/lighten in relation to the time, to reflect daylight, using alpha blending with a dark overlay sprite...
I'm looking for a way to do this outside of Sprite3D, is it possible?

Code: Select all

crush()
kill()
destroy()

Hah...my own stupidity to blame there :D
I'd checked out the first two, but not noticed the third...which happens to be exactly what I need. Thanks for the pointer, good sir.

Code: Select all

crush()
kill()
