The RPG Maker Resource Kit

I was wondering, if there's any way to for example, when you tint the screen in one map, then teleport to another, the tinted previous map will still be the same as the map you're in now? (hope this makes a bit sense.. ;/

I'm confused a little. Can you try to explain that again?

I believe he's saying he's got something similar to a day/night system, or something else in which a global tint is required, and he's having troubles getting it to work quite right.

Well my friend, it's simpler than you think. 2 ways to do this -

When you first tint the screen, turn on a switch, and then either -

A) Create a common event, parallel proccess, triggers when the switch is on, tints screen continuously in 0 frames. Just turn the switch off when you need to tint again.

or

B) Go into each map, and make a parallel proccess event which runs if the switch is on, and do the same as above.

REMEMBER: 0 frames

Thanks, exactly what I ment! Works perfectly now, thanks again :)
(Sorry bout the way I asked the question, I'm awefully bad at asking questions in english -.-)

okay.... forget what I said in my previous post..
I'm still having trouble, I'll try to explain it in examples, hope you guys can help me out ;)

Example: In the first map: I choose to tint the screen to -225  -225  -255  -0 (black, so you can't see anything; perfect for ingame cutscenes)
Ok.. I done that, now, this is what I want:
It's pitch black in the map you're in now, now you're being teleported to the next map..
My problem: As soon as you enter the next map, the tint is 0,0,0,0  (standard/light)
I don't want that!! I want it so, that when you enter the next map, the tint still is -225 -225 -225 -0  and not 0,0,0,0 .


Thanks for the help :)
