Ending Credits Script

[EmilyAnnCoons 7]

Note: This is NOT my script. I found it in the Project Zelda Engine. I did, however, edit it so that it may be called with $scene = Scene_Credits.new instead of having it appear on the Title Screen (which is very annoying). Also, it was edited by AvatarMonkeyKirby to actually end by itself. So if used, at least give credit to the two of us, and label one other as "Unknown" as I currently don't know who made it.

If you are the original author of this script, please say so and I will give credit ASAP (basically...whenever I see your post).

So, anyway, what this does is it plays the ending credits. You simply start the music you want (usually I put the player on a special map specifically for the Ending Credits) and then run an Auto-run process and call the script "$scene = Scene_Credits.new" (without the quotation marks...DUH!!!)

 

It will automatically put the words in the center of the screen, so you won't have to worry about that. Any questions, feel free to ask...not sure if I can answer or not, though...It is SDK compatible (thanks to Master Inuyasha for finding out for me.)

This is my absolute favourite credits script, the best I've seen. Too bad the aurthor is unkown.

[EmilyAnnCoons 7]

Agreed.

Well, it was edited by MiDas Mike, so that's as close as you're going to get to crediting the person when the author is unknown.

I have this on my site :P . But you dont have to put them at the end you know.. you could put them at the start of the game.. but i prefer not using script for that. I just use events :D and a intro scene kind of thing...

[Grandor 0]

I wish I knew how to make a intro scene, lol. Actually I do, but that would mean I would have to delete my first map, which in turn deletes all the ones under it, so that's no good.

[RMXPirate 0]

Not literally!! U can still make it. Who says u need to delete ur first map lol?

[Grandor 0]

Well, I have to clear it entirely. So it's all white. Then I need to have a autostart event to show my image, so the background is all black as my intro scrolls by.

I don't get it.... -.- how does this work? I can't copy and paste it....

 

i don't have thge slightetst idea where to find those damn scripts in the menu.

[Marked 197]

Why cant you copy and paste? You should be seeing a code box with the script inside.

 

Try downloading the Demo: http://www.rmxpunlimited.net/forums/index....amp;showfile=10

yeah, nevermind that, i was to impatient.

 

i didn't find the "scrips menu" u see? it's at the command bar, barely use it.

Can u putt a BMG on this script??

[Polraudio 122]

Can u putt a BMG on this script??

Yep just add this under def main

Audio.bgm_play("Audio/BGM/" + "Name of your music here", 100, 100)

 

I have one question. Can you make it where it ends and goes to the map (without hitting space) after the credits are done?

[EmilyAnnCoons 7]

For anyone who is using this script, please update to the new version (The new version isn't in the demo, it's only in the codebox...sorry). It ends after the credits finish rolling, and switches to the map afterwards.

[Marked 197]

The Demo has been updated also.
