Translucency in VB

Hello. I have created a 50/50 alpha blending effect using DirectX 7/Visual Basic. I want to know if it is fast or not. With a 139x124x16 bitmap I've got 93 fps on my P200 MMX 64MB RAM and a Diamond Monster Fusion video card. But the real question is: on a full game with lots of sprites, layers, sounds, music and the player, will it be fast enough? If someone is interested on the source/exe please give me your e-mail. Thank you all... André Luiz Silva "There is no knowledge that is not power" Edited by - Andre Luiz Silva on 2/19/00 11:17:39 AM

It''s not there. Getting an e-mail shouldn''t take this long
I have sent it again and now to the right e-mail...

Sorry Zombie,
