I have a cutscene how do i go from one map to another?

[dead_star_light]

So like the character runs off and then the screen goes black

(i've created another map for the writting to appear on)

and writting appears - also how do i make that writting scroll downwards?

so:
Character run off down towards a Door as if he is existing, but i want the screen to go black and then open the second map which is black and ive made a boarder for it (lol) The writting then appears scrolling down the black map

any ideas
thanks <3

If you are using RPG Maker XP,,then:

1) Page 2 Command: CHANGE SCREEN COLOR TONE
if u set the values to [-255, -255, -255, 0] then the screen will turn completely black in the amount of time you specify [default is 20 frames]

2) Page 1 Command: WAIT
if u set the value to 20 frames [approximately equals to 1 second],,then the event in progress will wait for 20 framess

3) Page 2 Command: TRANSFER PLAYER
you can use this command to teleport your hero whereever your want to

Note: scrolling text is not built into RPG Maker XP,,if you want to have your text scroll,,then use a script,,you can find scripts in the SCRIPTS DATABASE section of this forum.

Thank you - the only prob is thats what im doing but in the cutsene there isnt a moveable character that you physically move its all "set move route"

the problem is that when i set the character to teleport one of the switches doesn't work

[djkdjl]

it doesn't matter what character is moved,,if u want ur hero to teleport to a new map,,then use transfer player command.

with more experience you become more creative on handling switches and events.

for example,,u can split the event into two parts,,the first part happens on MAP 1,,the 2nd part happens on MAP 2

using PARALLEL PROCESS and AUTORUN events as well as SWITCHES,,u can make events start and stop whenever you please.
