Hi all,

I have some awesome 3D boxart which I downloaded from the HyperSpin website. They are transparent PNGs. Trouble is, when I use them in GameEx, the transparency does not work properly - it just displays a solid colour instead (see attached screenshot)

Is this a bug, or is there something I can do to make the transparency work?

Thank you

Is there a setting to change the gameex transparency color?

Not that I'm aware of. If you want to use black in your images, you can use a tool HK built to convert all black to slightly off black. In doing so, black will still look black, but GameEx won't use it as a transparent area.
