: Do you know if the fade outs/fade ins are possible?

There are two separate parts to this: disabling the teleport effects, and enabling the fades. The first part can be done with MML:

<view interlevel_in_effects="false" interlevel_out_effects="false" />

As far as I know, you have to use Lua to add the fading in. For the start of levels, here's a complete script that will work (thanks to treellama for parts of this):

Triggers = {}

function fade_in()
for p in Players() do
p:fade_screen("cinematic fade in")
end
end

function idle_once()
fade_in()
Triggers.idle = nil
end

function Triggers.init()
Triggers.idle = idle_once
end

Fading out is more complicated, and can't be done in a generic fashion. You'd have to control the level transfers with Lua, and call fade_screen() at the appropriate time, then wait for the fade to finish before calling teleport_to_level(). Lua has an end-of-level trigger, but at that point the screen has already blacked out.
