Fading in & Out

[CrimsonInferno 35]

I can't seem to remember the simplest thing :facepalm @ myself.

 

Its been months since I touched XP and I forgot about it. I've been using VX lately (youtube episodes) and no matter what, I can't seem to do it.

 

I know this may sound like a easy and simple question and I know I knew it before....but how do I, in XP, make the screen fade, transfer character (I know that part at least lol) and then have the screen unfade out? When I do it, the screen stays black. I knew this at one point, but I forgot lol

 

 

Can anyone help me........?

 

*sorry for such the novice question -sigh-*

 

Thanks for reading! :P

Even I get this happening all the time... It happens because when it transfers it doesnt do anything after it. What you want is probally something like this:

 

Change Screen Colour Tone (-255, -255, -255), @20 (frames)

Wait 25

Change Screen Colour Tone (0, 0, 0), @20 (frames)

Transfer Player

 

That way the player transfers while the screen is unfading. Another way to do this is just to add a parallel process event on the new map that sets it to whatever tone you need. Hope this helps.

This is why I use VX. It fades the screen for you upon transfer :D

Actually

 

Change Screen Colour Tone (-255, -255, -255), @20 (frames)

Wait 25

Transfer Player

Change Screen Colour Tone (0, 0, 0), @20 (frames)

Wait 25

 

 

Then they have to wait till it fades back before they can move.

This gives me a great idea for a script. Maybe something to work on for myself. Thanks, Crimson!

Thanks for helping me guys! I can't believe I forgot how to do this. I guess my break to VX really messed me up lol

I tried both those ways, but the screen never unfades >.>

 

@Leon:

A script? Well, glad I helped/inspired you ^,^

it should. thats why there is a "Change Screen Colour Tone (0, 0, 0), @20 (frames)"

 

Change Screen Colour Tone (-255, -255, -255), @20 (frames) - Fades completely black after 20 frames

Wait 25

Transfer Player

Change Screen Colour Tone (0, 0, 0), @20 (frames) - Un-Fades completely after 20 frames

Wait 25

 

You sure you set all the sliders back to the center for the last Change Screen Colour Tone?

I just posted a script that should help make this easier.

Okay, I thought I checked the "unfade" back to 000s. I left one lol

Heh, someone asks how to do a simple thing in RMXP and you go out of your way to make a script for the problem. xD

 

Nice.
