    • Heyo RMRK! I'm really ticked off right now at RPG Maker XP  ;8

    Yes, I did search, and I found nothing on my problem.

    In my map for my first cutscene, I have the following events set on Parallel Process:

    Change Screen Color Tone,
    Wait 20 Frames,
    Play BGM,
    Wait 20 Frames,
    Scroll Map:Right, 17, 3,
    Show Animation on Event

    The problem is is that the map keeps scrolling and doesn't stop. I want it to scroll 17 squares from the right of where the event is, but it just keeps going. Is this a normal bug with RPG Maker XP or am I just doing something wrong?

    I also was having trouble earlier on two different Screen tones, where I wanted the game to start off pitch black, but then slowly open up to a night time setting, but it keeps flashing and won't stop.

    If anyone could help me with these problems, I would very greatly appreciate it!

    • You can always use some Local Switches and Conditionals to settle it with the first part. If you want the screen to turn black however, instantly mind you, set the screen tone to everything erm...I believe Zero off the top of my head. Whatever makes it black. Then turn the Wait Frame to 0. It may keep flashing in this case because the event repeats rather than having an end as you are not done. Just making that assumption though since I'm not treating this as an excerpt.

    The problem you're having is that it may keep repeating (The event), as it is in Parallel Process. Turn on Self-Switch A, make a new page, make it true if Self-Switch A is on, and see what happens. You can delete this later. I just tested this out on a project, the self-switch, and it does not continue to scroll (The map is 50x50 and I made the map scroll 17 squares to the right, starting from the top left).

    EDIT: It seems you already know how to the do the first paragraph. That's good. All I can think of though is that it's a Parallel Process problem. :3

    Yeah, seriously though thank you. I'm not that experienced with RPG Maker XP's system yet, but I'm learning!

    • Ah, thanks much. ^_^

    Well, it takes time, but once you understand how to use Parallel Processes and Variables, the rest becomes very easy. Very very easy. Have a nice day.
