WFC Alpha Channel Transparency #40

Open Hakaisha opened 6 years ago

Hakaisha commented 6 years ago

When a PNG file with a transparency layer is used to create a cover, the transparent areas become black in the resulting WFC file.

If the WFC file were able to retain transparency, features such as floating picture logos would become possible in SourceFlow; similar to Emulation Station and HyperSpin.

This would also allow possibilities such as being able to use 2D cartridge and disc shapes as selectable media.

Hmm I wonder if this is a deficiency in the image format the WFC files are using, or if it's just a bug in the conversion process. This one will take a bit of investigation.
