Evil ini

This is just a regular ini line :

load_sequence graphicswolk- 849 BLACK

but after some time and a couple of test runnings the line changes into :

load_sequence graphicswolk- 849 0 400 144 0 0 0 0

and gone is my transparency!!!

If somebody knows what's going on, please reply!!!

ps: NO it's not me changing the line, it seems to happen "randomly" and no I did not add other graphics in the meanwhile!

LOL, ok, youve made a cloude, but did you used black instead of white where it must be transparency?

btw, when the line IS changed, add BLACK to the add and voila, fixed and the line will stay that way

Well actually I stole the cloud from the d-mod "Back from the grave" or something like that!

And it has a black background surrounding the white cloud so I should use BLACK to cover up the black mess!

Every time I erase those stupid numbers and put my BLACK back in its place, it stays there for a while but like I said, it will change again!!!

and again and again ...aaaaarrhhh!!!

adding BLACK after the change (and behind the numbers) won't work either. I'm sorry

Except then it will be a gray cloud...

What did you run between adding the line and seeing that it changed? If just Dink, it definitely shouldn't be happening. But if you ran DinkEdit or (even more likely) some other editor, I can imagine this happening.

Thanks guys but I think I found the bad guy :

Windinkedit 'final'??? the new optimization option : optimize dink.ini for optimal preformance!!! I guess this option keeps on adding the stuff behind the line to keep it quick or so!!!
