I use DC6 Maker to make my inv graphics, and its worked with no trouble until recently. Am trying to add new graphic, but no matter what I do the background won't become transparent.
Does anyone know a tried and true method to get the transperency every time with DC6 Maker?

In dc6con use the -transcol switch. Make sure in both cases your background truly is 0,0,0...not just appearing really black.

A better idea is to convert your bmp into .gif, use an animation program to EASILY edit the background pallette to 0, 0, 0, then just do insert frame into dc6maker and save as .dc6. Works well for me and I use graphics from BGII.
