Sprite Effect

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,

I have 2 layers, background and game.

Background has one Image.

On game I have two sprites, another “background” and a sprite, a square block 100x100. What I want to achieve is the following effect:

The sprite should mask out the "front background", where the sprite is located, and display the lower layer, the background.
Is this possible, if so can someone please help me.

PS I have tried all the options in the "Effect" Options.

Regards

	Be sure to set the top layer's property "Force own texture" to yes (like in the "Sprite effect.capx" in the folder c2\examples provided with the install of C2, this should do the trick.
