How to make an overlay fad out after having it fade in/out INFINITE

Jubels · September 17, 2019, 4:24am

So, I’m trying to do it where an overlay fades in/and out while characters speak. So I worked that part out thanks to a Joseph Evans video and someone elses help, but I can’t figure out how to make it fade out… it works when I put @overlay OVERLAYNAME clear but it just poofs…

Moved to Directing Help & Tips since that is what the op is requesting. Please take some time to review our forum tutorial here which helps explain where to correctly create threads on the forums. Thanks!

What if you clear/remove the overlay?

&overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 1 or 0 in 0.5
CHARACTER (talking_animation)
Speech

This should work? Or do you want it looped?
