Animated weather overlay from marketplace keeps turning black

Today I bought the Weather Overlays ( <a href="https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/set/3798/weather-overlays" rel="nofollow">https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/set/3798/weather-overlays</a> ) from the Marketplace. When I was setting up the maps this morning, it seemed to work fine.&nbsp; But when we started this afternoon's game, we had a big problem. Every so often, the rain effect would be replaced with black, covering everything. It seems like the transparency was no longer working. The only way to fix it was to delete the image, then replace it.&nbsp; This wasn't just a problem for me, all of the players were experiencing it, but at different times.&nbsp; In the end I had to remove it completely.&nbsp;&nbsp; So there's a problem with animated assets losing transparency somehow. I am using Chrome, the most recent version, on Windows 10. I had 6 other players in the game, I don't know what they were using, but all of them had the same problem.&nbsp; The overlay was set on the map layer. Legacy dynamic lighting was on for part of the session, the issue happens whether it's on or not. I cannot give steps on reproducing because it occurred at random, though frequently.&nbsp;
This is happening to me as well. My players love the weather overlays but I'm close to throwing them out at this point. I have noticed it will occasionally lose transparency when I move to a new tab then return. Maybe related? Not sure but I hope this is addressed soon!
