[SOLVED] Display screen in grayscale

#1 Post by SinnyROM »

Is there a way to do a grayscale filter screen effect on the game screen? I have a screen dimmer that puts a transparent black screen behind my modal screens, but I would like to have a grayscale effect instead. I know it's possible to use an image matrix in a transform for a single image, but I'm not sure if there's any way to do it for the currently displayed screen, sprites and background included.

No, sorry, there's not. It's planned (and has been for a while), but is waiting for the OpenGL rewrite/7.1.

Glad to get an answer anyway. Thanks Pytom, I'll look forward to 7.1!
