If I understand your question correctly, I'm afraid that's impossible. Every pixel of a bridge filled with black will be competely transparent, any other color is fully opaque. There's no in between, as far as I know.

I think you are correct. Months ago i tried to make the default bridge images transparent, but it did not work. Either i did something wrong, or indeed it is not possible.

How about the Jazzy's Nightmod? The pattern doesn't care if the image has transparency or not. I haven't tested it myself but it seems to be possible.

It's possible to make the bridge-parts fully transparent but they weren't really usefull and took too much CPU.

its possible by making 2 tiles

1) with shadow or trasparent parts, a normal tile without any colision
2) make the same image without shadow or trasparent parts, a leveltile 2
