  • [quote:1hgv8arj]Currently changing height and width stretches it so i am wondering if you have a way to do it at all?

    make a temp canvas

    paste the original to it

    resize the original canvas

    clear the original canvas to transparent

    paste the temp canvas to the original

    destroy the temp canvas

  • I guess I've never tried to use an alpha masked bumpmap before

  • im not at home, on a short break at work, viewing this from my cell phone, but you can sort of simulate a directional light with masking

    search forum for the word bumpy

    and check out my bumpy light cone for an example of fake directional lighting.

    cant check out your caps on my cell though

    ill check those later today

  • it's the tint plus

    take is off and it doesn't do it anymore

    if you're intent on using the tintplus, a workaround would be to have copies of the objects in the exact same spots with the mask effect on, that would make those parts invisible, but you'd have to have them on a separate layer from other objects that might move into the small mask area

    btw, I like the look of it, what did you use to generate the bumpmap?

  • I had a long thread about this same question a long time ago with construct

    eventually, the only way I found to it was using a canvas

    make the sprite invisible, 

    +always
---clear canvas
---paste masksprite to canvas[/code:11cmh3h2]

and set the mask effect to the canvas instead of the masking sprite

    you should add best tool for developers to your original post ash

  • no problem guys,

    there's alot of weird stuff you can do with the "use expression" thing

    hope it comes in handy

  • OOPS, just realized the wrong thing was saved to dropbox

    here it is

    the basis for setting custom keys (other link should work now as well)

  • Things would be quite simplified with the For each object scenario, if you could reference "This" afterwards as well.

    when you do

    for each object

    it picks the objects one by one

    so if you say

    for each sprite

    -----set sprite.x to loopindex

    it will give each sprite a different value

    you don't need this because you can just refer to the object by name and you're always only talking about the one it's currently on

  • thank you so much

    that's all I needed to know

    I have some really cool ideas for the distortable canvas

  • sorry, that's what I meant, image manipulator copy and paste during gameplay then, just takes a while, or does it freeze your game, too, while it's doing it?
