Title: [RESOLVED] Scripts: how do they work?
Post by: Gullwing on July 21, 2007, 02:23:37 PM
I'm new here and I'm new on the RPG maker stuff.
Kind noob on these things but... :(
How can i make a script work? I am just opening the script menu,putting a name on the new script and adding the code?
Something other...How can i make a prelude on my story.
Something like staring the game and the camera moves in a big castle,then the camera shows a king moving right-left,something like this without showing the hero or walking on any event to activate it.
Or showing a house and letters come saying in the ancient time...blah-blah...and then the game begins.   :-\
That's all   :bean:

You have the right process for adding a script.  Making it work is a whole other process ;)

For your other question, do a search for Cutscene - I think there are a couple of tutorials around on those.  I think you can do it without going into scripts.

cutscenes can be done with eventing
and yes, that is the basic way to insert a script, but some scripts may require configuration on your part
(normally, there are instructions telling you how)
