the first question is vc programmin'
and the second another vsp Q

[1]. For some reason, all of the fade in/out codes I use do not work, i am using V2K, and I wonder if I need a timer, or could someone tell me what they key elements in the fade/out/in are..

[2]. Does anyone know of a really good vsp source other than TvS?

any help would be nice

Well, fading out is easy... just do something like this:

/* Pseudocode, will not compile */
done = HOW_LONG_TO_FADE_FOR;
Render(); // Repaints the map on the screen
SetLucent(1); // Makes it so that anything drawn after
// it is translucent instead of opaque
While(done) // While we are still fading
{
RectFill(COLOR_TO_FADE_TO); // Draw a translucent
// box the size of the
// screen in order to
// make everything
// below it look darker
Delay(SPEED_OF_YOUR_FADE); // Pause so it isn't
// done instantaneously.
done--; // This prevents an
// infinite loop.
ShowPage(); // To show our progress
}
SetLucent(0); // Now everything is
// opaque again.
RectFill(COLOR_TO_FADE_TO); // Draw a solid box

/* And you're faded out... */

Now, in order to fade in using that method, it requires a little more work...

/* Pseudocode again */

done = HOW_LONG_TO_FADE_FOR;
SetLucent(0);
RectFill(SOLID_COLOR_TO_FADE_FROM);
SetLucent(1);
while(done)
{
Render();
for(i=0;i
