Title: RMXP cutscene question
Post by: Onyx on January 13, 2006, 12:04:14 AM
Hello. This question was probably answered b4 but I can't find the topic answering it, or, if I find it it's for RM2k(3).

It's quite simple. I want to make a cutscene with 2 people talkig but without me pressing the action button.

If this requires a script please post a example on how to display text and set time delay b4 it changes as I don't know how to script in RMXP yet (I only have it 1 day!).

Thanks. Onyx.

You can use autorun, which will automaticly run it, but is this at the start of the game? if it is make your person, walk into another map and then use auto run

and another thing, autorun will ALWAYS play first, and if u hav to autoruns, the first event EV001 will go first.

No, it's not that, I want something like this:

Text is displayed for 60frames and then another text is displayed without me pressing enter.

Look, I have multiple texts in single event. After first text is displayed I have to press enter so the next text displays.
I want this to happen automaticly. Or you maybe think that I should use multiple events for this?

Oh well. I hope there's a better way, but if not, I'll use images with text.

I haven't yet had time to really get into RMXP (I don't really like it that much anyway), but I assume that the old "\|" and "\^" commands should work.  When placed in message boxes, \| creates a pause, and \^ causes the message box to close on its own.

Try that.
