Additive effect causing translucent effect also

Hello people,

I have some sprites that I need to have a transparent background to, but when I use the additive effect is also causes them to go translucent also.

Pic 1 - In construct:

Pic 2 - In game:

Please help me. How can I get rid of the background and keep my objects opaque?

Thank-you

Create your sprites with a transparent background - use something like Paint.net or Gimp that supports it and save to PNG.

Thanks [ :) ]
