XNA Advanced Techniques - Intro Screen Part 5

In this tutorial, I continue to discuss the screen manager system and how to implement a logo/intro screen in a very abstract way for easy expansion. Very lengthy tutorial, but a lot was covered.

i got a second problem with the line

spriteBatch.Draw(logoTexture, centerTexture, new Color(Color.White, ScreenAlpha));

i get the errormessage

'Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Color­' does not contain a constructor that takes 2 arguments

i try to help myself but i would be happy to get a solution from you to this problem as well.

Because i do the tutors a second time i picked up a bite more as the last time. I am actually german and that makes it a bit harder to understand all of what you are saying.THX

@IcetigerDave Same thing as before, simply change it to: spriteBatch.Draw(logoTexture, centerTexture, Color.White * TransitionPercent);

The issue: You are using XNA 4.0 when these tutorials were made for XNA 3.1 It is fine, you will just have some issues with Color with these tutorials.

Hi, first i have to say you make great tutorials what are helping me really much.

I tried this what i seen in this last few tutors but my logo will not fade at all.

I use Visual express 2010 and XNA 4.0. I also got the problem does when i use the new Color(fadeColor, (byte)(fadeOpacity * 255)));

'Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Color­' does not contain a constructor that takes 2 arguments

would be great to get a comment to fix that.. thx

@IcetigerDave Is fadeOpacity a float between 0 and 1?  If so, simply change the line to fadeColor * fadeOpacity;

Sorry for the problems I cause you but I have one last question :). If the logo doesn't fade what could be the problem then? My fadeOpacity is also 0.25p (same as your tut). If you have any idea let me know.
