Sprite transparency is gone with HD 520 HD 620

Hi,

I recently got 2 new computers with HD 520 and HD620 graphics. When I try to run my game under Windows 10, I am seeing back color behind sprites that are supposed to have transparent background (see the attached screenshot below).

I have already updated the driver to the latest version (win64_154518.4664) and the problem persists. Could you kindly help to advise how to resolve this issue? Thank you.

Hello orino,

 

 

Thank you for the information you have kindly provided, if you install the driver from your computer manufacturer do you get the same problem?

 

 

The driver is available here:

 

https://www.msi.com/Desktop/support/Cubi.html# down-driver&Win10%2064 https://www.msi.com/Desktop/support/Cubi.html# down-driver&Win10%2064

 

NOTE: This link is being offered for your convenience and should not be viewed as an endorsement by Intel of the content, products, or services offered there.

 

 

Also, have you tried contacting the game's developers to find out if there is a patch that you can use to solve the issue or to get some kind of support from their end?

 

 

 

 

Regards,

There is a new driver version available, you can download it here:

 

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26836/Graphics-Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-15-45-?product=88355 Intel® Graphics Driver for Windows* [15.45]

 

 

Since you have an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) system I suggest you to manually install this driver, please see how to http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/000005629.html Manually Install an Intel® Graphics Driver in Windows® 10 and Windows 8*/8.1*

Hi Ivan,

Thanks for the reply. I tried the latest driver and it's still not working.

The question I have is that I have tried this game on another computer with Intel HD Graphics 4600 GPU with exactly the same OS version and the problem doesn't exist. So I would still think it is related to the driver with the later GPU.

Kindly let me know if you need more information for further investigation.

Thank you,

Hello orino,

 

 

Is it possible for you to test this driver version https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26404/Graphics-Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-15-45-?product=96551 15.45.10.4542? I know it is an older version but we just want to know if there any regression.

 

 

Obviously, this is just for testing and we want you to stay with this previous version.

Would you please set in GFx Control panel under 3D options > Global Settings > Enable

 

 

Please let me know how it goes.

 

 

 

Best regards,

Hi Ivan,

Thank you so much for your continuous follow-up. I have uploaded the game file to https://goo.gl/EwZCFu https://goo.gl/EwZCFu

After you download and unzip the game files (Please temporarily turn off anti-virus software for complete extraction of the game files), you may simply execute BlueLogin.exe and you will see a launcher screen as following:

Make sure that you select "4" in the combo box at the bottom left corner (although other characters might appear unrecognizable to you) and then press the button on the right to launch the game. You can see the defects after the game launched.

Let me know if you have any problem reproducing this issue.

Thanks again for your help.

Hello orino,

 

 

We have been trying to replicate this issue but we have not been able to do it, the files you attach we are not able to run it or download it to execute it, so for that reason we haven't been able to test it.

 

 

Can you point us to a website where we can download an executable file to install it in our system and be able to test it?

 

 

 

Thank you,

 

 

Ivan U.

Hello orino,

 

 

Can we get details on how to obtain this game? I'm not finding details about it.

 

Is it this one? https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/cross-gate-hd/9nblggh4wc9t https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/cross-gate-hd/9nblggh4wc9t

 

If so, this game is only meant to run on Windows 10 Mobile, Windows Phone 8.1, Windows Phone 8.

 

 

The only other reference I found is Cross Gate PC: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_Gate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_Gate , released on 2001. If this is the game, we do not have it on physical form, thus we would need to obtain it in digital first and even if we get it, since it is such an old game we may not get a fix for it anytime soon, as other newer games and apps take priority.

 

 

 

Please let me know where I can get this game.

 

 

 

Best regards,

 

 

 

Ivan U.
