Well...I searched for this. Unfortunately I couldn't find a way to play the video before the title screen appears. But I found an older version of that script and you can play your video on a map using this script : #==============================================================================# # Version 0.3 # # RPG Maker XP Flash Player # # # # Author: ç¼çœ¼çš„å¤å¨œ Updated by: Dark_Wolf_Warrior/Dahrkael # # # # How to Use: # # Graphics.freeze # # 1.

For the step 2, Copy and paste these files in your game folder: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-ZHv7mhUCmrOXFhTlVyRE4xcTA/view?usp=sharing Like step 4 says, When you want to play your video, Call this line "$flash.play("file.swf", button)" (without quotations) and change "file.swf" to your video name. Perhaps a scripter can edit this to fit what you need. That was what I managed to find. But till then, I think it's not a bad idea to add the intro to a map that player is transferred to right after they choose "New Game".

Here is what I found: http://rpgmaker.net/tutorials/496/ I don't have time to follow the tutorial and make sure it's exactly what you want, But I assume you do.

No problem bro, You're the one who is missing it anyways :P

I always like to help as much as I can, I'm not a professional writer so my advices may not be right but I'll be glad to share my experiences with you to improve your story :)

Heya! Hope u enjoy ur stay even more. And good luck with ur project(s) pal!

I took it, Though I didn't have much to say '^^ Ah school projects suck, Good luck with your research!

Well, I have experience with both fangame and original game and if you want me to give you advise, I'd say go for the original game (Not your main series yet) When you're making a fan game, You have to add some standards that were in the original game directly to your fangame, So you have to "copy" some elements from the original game. And I recommend you to make an original game because that way, You must create those elements yourself instead of copying them, And trust me, You have to learn creating those elements (like character development) for your original series. If I were you, I'd make a small game which is about the game characters before the main story begins, You know, I mean like "part 0" for your series, I guess it's a good practice to earn exp. And as Mage said, Finish whatever you make :)

Heya Lizzie! Welcome back! It's nice to see you around. I use windows 8 and I don't actually hate it. I just don't like it. It doesn't have much to present and it's kinda too sensitive, It runs into problem easily, and as you said it doesn't open old games and software :( btw I don't really care about the start menu. I saw a few pics of windows 10 and yeah the old start menu was there...I was expecting to see a totally new environment of windows under the title of "Windows 10" but it was disappointing so I doubt I get it.

Umm, i think you can find good stuff if you search in google image. I found some but I'm not able to send them for some reasons. Also there are very good bloody tiles and hospital tiles for RMVX but I guess you can use them if you make them work with RMXP. Zanyzora has some useful tiles too. And don't be afraid of getting your hands dirtier and editing tiles yourself, just like Germany said it takes time but it's worth it. btw I use photoshop to edit tiles and I like the result.

Heya! Welcome to GDU! I hope you enjoy your stay. I write stories too! Good luck with your horror game and your future plans ^^ Also it's my pleasure to help you with RMXP Have fun!

Of course that's for the sprite, Here is what I got from RMVXAce original resources for the faceset generator: http://www.gdunlimited.net/media/uploads/manager/a57untitled-2-23287.png when u r done making the faceset, Paste that piece on the forehead

Well, I got this from a character of Insane 2.png (a file in RPGVXAce/Graphics/Characters folder) and recolored it. http://www.gdunlimited.net/media/uploads/manager/jewel-23287.png

I know a solution, When you use this way, You can show anything you want in a text box (Yeah I can be creative XD ) But you need an script named Universal Message System by Ccoa (I guess you have heard its name before because it's a very useful script.) 1. Add the script to your game (Insert above main, You know) 2. Turn the music sign into a .png file (It's like when you want to make an icon for an item.) Then paste it in a folder named icons in your game folder. 3. Go to database, Choose a blank item slot, Change the icon from none to that .png file you've made earlier. Memorize the item ID 4. Open the text that you want to show that music sign in, Use the following code "\oi[item ID]" (Without quotations of course) and paste it where you want to show the music sign. 5. Start the game and enjoy! Hope it works for both of you Kitsuki and Bob :)
