Hello,
I created a simple animation with a (very scuffed) greenscreen to use in my RPG Maker MV game. However, no matter how I mess with Chroma Key-ing, Alpha Channels, and more, the greenscreen turns to a black background. I can change the color of the background well enough, but I can’t figure out how to actually make it transparent to use in a game. Here’s the video I made attached. I hope I can figure this out to make more in the future!
Thanks!
To export it with transparency you need to remove any background video track and use one of the export presets from the “alpha” category. I recommend VP9 to use in a game unless you are certain the game engine can handle Quicktime Animation or Ut Video as these two are going to be highest fidelity although bigger file size. If you want to visualize the transparency before export, instead of the background track you can add the Alpha Channel: View filter and then disable or remove it before export.
Thanks for the help! I figured out that the Crop: Rectangle function was using black borders and somehow blotted everything out… Still working on getting the transparency working within RPG Maker MV but now that I can get the transparency working at all, it’ll be a lot easier.
