Okay so question, you seem to know how to make a character in a cutscene move without being on the event. So, here is my situation: Player enters town, now I need a character to approach my player and tell him something and then move off the road and not speak unless I walk up to him.
Yo dude this was no help all da part atleast 1 - 4 was gud but 5 & 6 video look crappy n on this u make thing mad confusin wats wrong wit u for 1 u sound gay as hell n sound like u came at out of a house hold where u got raped by ya uncle n ya aunt by a dildo
i have a question, in my cut scene i set a switch to make my one of my characters fall then get back up than charge back at the guy he is fighting, but when that happens the game starts to freeze up do u know what the problem is?
it only works when I set my party position in a room, but the way I've st up the game. You can only set your party position in one spot, like the beginning of the game or somewhere else, but that way cutscnes only work on one map.
I've got a problem. only the first cutscene works in the beginning of the game. Even if I copy and paste the same event onto a different map nothing happens. How do I make it work? Thanks
I would recommend using a Self Switch rather than a Regular Switch. That way if won't crowd up your Switch list with one-time use switches. Set your cutscene to "Autorun." If you have it set to Parallel Process, then during any break between "Show Text" commands in your event (such as move routes or wait frames), the player will be able to move around, and that might mess up your event if you've got a move route set for the player somewhere in it.
Well lucky me, it all works fine for me. I never had too much problems getting my stuff to work. The only thing I still can't figure out, nothing I use on Autorun actually even works...
They just don't appear, as in, they don't run at all. I tried everything I could think of to get them to run on Autorun, and nothing worked. So I decided to just use Parallel Process as it works exactly how I want it to.
You'll have to search for a world map tileset. After you find one, you'll have to import it into your project, and then you will have to set it up, which can be very complicated for inexperienced users.
Okay, so I have a cut scene and the opacity of the player during that cut scene is 0. I finished the cut scene and at the end of the cut scene I made the player go to a different map. On the map that I sent the player to the opacity of the player is still 0 and I'm trying to make him visible again, but I can't......I tried like 37 different ways to try and get the character visible again but I can't so can please answer this. PLEASE!!
Awesome. I'd always wondered how to do that and often would, like you'd said, set up multiple maps to control various cutscenes. This will definitely help. Thank you!
I know the difference of Parallel Process and Autorun. If you have a switch, like a box, that you want it to change the look of it but not able for the event to repeat, you use autorun on the second page, with the even looking like the opened box, so when the event is finished, it automatically runs the second part of the event. It's kinda cool, but if you use it on the first event page, I think it just freezes your game...
Very Nice video... lol me and you both... at first i had a game with god only knows how many maps. And why does the theif have to die? I mean its not like he stole anything... im suing that guard. Anyhow Nice video.. keep it up
I have a question... I just started using RPG Maker XP and I was wondering about the monsters, I know how to add them in but I don't really know how to do all the stats go.
So I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on monsters going from weak to strong.
Can someone help me with this? Okay so like i make a event where like someone joins your group. and i put in a command called *erase event* so the guy disappears, and then when i go to a diffrent map and go back to the map that the guy joined the group from hes still there and it repeats itself
i have a problem ok i made it to where when i walk in the next map it triggers the cutescene when its done one of the npcs walks to the right off the map which is ok but then it takes me back to the previous map when i enter the same spot with the cutescene there both just standing there how do i fix that to where im still in the room when the npc walks to the right!!!!!
I prefer to use autorun, instead of the switch method(which can be done without creating a separate page)you can just erase the event from the map using the command,although it will just end the cutscene for just that session and repeat every time you enter the map, unless you turn it off with switches
Make a tutorial of how when you step on a event block " lets say it asks for your name" you enter your name, and then after your done with your name, you try to step on the event block again it wont ask for your name again
Ok, so I turned off my cutscene. It involved 3 NPC's moving to a set location(move routes) and staying there. I leave the room to continue on, but when I come back to the room where the cut scene took place, the NPC's are standing at their initial start point and not where the move route had placed them. -_-' How do I make them permanently stay where the route placed them? Thanks ahead of time if you can help me out.
Hey, your videos were very helpful, but when I enter a different map and I come back to the map with the cutscene, it plays again, I want it to stop forever. Can anyone help me?
Use the "Transfer Player" command. Preferably, change the screen color to black, transfer the player without fading, then return the screen color to normal. You'll also want some "Wait" commands in between when the screen turns black and when you transfer.
Oh. And one more thing. How to I change the choices in the startup screen? Like "New Game", "Continue" and "End Game". It would be really great if you could help me!
Go to your script editor, then go to "scene_title". Somewhere it will say n1 = 'New Game', n2 = 'Continue', etc etc. Change what is inbetween the apostrophes.
Really great tutorial. But one thing I need to know is how do I make the cutscene to start in one map and then change to another map? I tryed with transfer player when touched but that didn't work so I tried every way that I could think of but couldn't fix it. I just started with rpgmaker some months ago but I've learned quiet alot but the switches is quiet confusing. I guess I need to use switches to do that but how do I do it?
Hey i'm still having trouble with it i've got it set but i knock down the cat chick but i don't show up and i can't move around... Maybe i didn't get something right i don't know but i'll try to figure it out thanks alot!
Hey can you make a video on how to script other types of battle systems like side view battle systems or ABS's (Active Battle System) because any time i try to script them it says something like 'syntax error' or if you dont want to make a video just send me a message.
hey i habve aquestion when ever my player changes class like fromfighter-warrior his skills always stay the same so there are fighter skills how do i fix this if you now how

Here's one way to do it:
1 - Make an event of the character you want to walk up to your player and talk
2 - Set the event to 'Autorun'
3 - Set the event's move route so that he will walk up to your player (just make sure you specify the movement as 'This Event' in the drop-down box)
4 - Under the 'Move Route' event, set 'Wait for move's completion' (if you don't want the character to talk before he reaches your player)
DemonsNRoses 2 years ago
5 - Next, write whatever it is you want your character to say to the player
6 - Now, set another 'Move Route' for the character to move away from your player
7 - Go to 'Control Self Switch' and choose "Self Switch A" and set it to turn on
8 - Make a new event page, under conditions, set it to "Self Switch A is ON"
9 - Set the event page to 'Action Button' or 'Player Touch' and type what you want him to say when you talk to him
-Hope that helped... ;)

else if its "action button" you cant
