Author's Notes

 

Enjoy!

Notice

This script has been add to Warrior of Add-on Script. The final update for the Scene_Title_Skip script has been add to the Add-on script. The script shown on this page is the previous verision. There's nothing that different, other then that I've improve the code a bit.

[ForeverZer0 44]

Just out of curiosity, why even bother with a "command_new_game" and have it enter a loop, just to break on the next update.

And since there is nothing to start the audio, you don't need to stop it. That would only be useful if you actually use a title screen, but since this overwrites instead of aliasing, that won't happen.

[Bigace360 38]

1. Wouldn't I need the "Command_new_game" for all that stuff inside it to work plus the part add with the items or that all not need, I can test it see after I go to bed in few minutes.
   
2. I forgot about that, if you don't go to the title screen then the audio part isn't really needed.
   

Edit: I Just Aliased command_new_game, and it still works fine and I deleted the audio parts as you said they were useless. I'll add them to the Warrior of Add-Ons update on friday/Saturday.

There is no point in aliasing anything when you are making it impossible to ever have the original functionality, you may as well just overwrite it.

 

What I meant was something like this:

 

class Scene_Title

alias title_skip main
def main
if $first_load == nil
$data_actors = load_data("Data/Actors.rxdata")
$data_classes = load_data("Data/Classes.rxdata")
$data_skills = load_data("Data/Skills.rxdata")
$data_items = load_data("Data/Items.rxdata")
$data_weapons = load_data("Data/Weapons.rxdata")
$data_armors = load_data("Data/Armors.rxdata")
$data_enemies = load_data("Data/Enemies.rxdata")
$data_troops = load_data("Data/Troops.rxdata")
$data_states = load_data("Data/States.rxdata")
$data_animations = load_data("Data/Animations.rxdata")
$data_tilesets = load_data("Data/Tilesets.rxdata")
$data_common_events = load_data("Data/CommonEvents.rxdata")
$data_system = load_data("Data/System.rxdata")
Graphics.frame_count = 0
$game_temp = Game_Temp.new
$game_system = Game_System.new
$game_switches = Game_Switches.new
$game_variables = Game_Variables.new
$game_self_switches = Game_SelfSwitches.new
$game_screen = Game_Screen.new
$game_actors = Game_Actors.new
$game_party = Game_Party.new
$game_troop = Game_Troop.new
$game_map = Game_Map.new
$game_player = Game_Player.new
$game_party.setup_starting_members
$game_map.setup($data_system.start_map_id)
$game_player.moveto($data_system.start_x, $data_system.start_y)
$game_player.refresh
$game_map.autoplay
$game_map.update
$first_load = true
$scene = Scene_Map.new
else
title_skip
end
end
end

 

 

This makes it so that the title is only skipped in the first load. After that, original functionality is restored, and "Returning to Title" doesn't just loop back to the map. As you can seen, there is no loop, and it is all done in one short method. I usually whip one of these little scripts up when writing a script and I have to to constantly keep skipping through the title screen.

This what I did, for the Warrior_Addon Script.

 (1...$data_items.size).each {|i| $game_party.gain_item(i, USABLE_ITEM)}
 $scene = NEW_SCENE
end
end

 

 

The thing is you didn't add the "gain_item" part in your script like I did. However I am making a Testing Script that will include those later, but for now these would be revealent for those who wanted added items to there test file. I'm probably looking at this wrong anyway.

 

Edit: Oh okay, just notice what you did, I'll just add the "gain_item" methods right above the $scene.
