Fade to black then load level
« on: March 07, 2015, 09:45:52 AM »
Hi all, I'm new to Playmaker so trying some things out.

I was trying to get a simple fade to black, then load level. I have tried a few things including having the fade in one state and the load in the next state. I have also tried to do the fade and then a wait in the same state. Neither of these works b/c of the update. Any suggestions?

Seems to be working as expected for me.

Did you set a 'Finish Event' in the 'Camera Fade Out' action? That'll stop the level from loading in the next state until the fade has completed.

The issue turned out to be the Alpha on the draw screen color on the load state. Set to transparent:-) BTW you don't have to do this with a UI, you can just do it with the camera fade. Unless you need the UI for something.
