did'nt quite get what u wanted, but try using tint screen , and if ur going into a room , goto command Move Event,select the event u want to move (which will be graphiced with say, a warrior) and then u have to make tht events opacty to 0 when his reached stairs or sumthing, and then u have to recreate a whole new event with the same graphic,and if u want it to darken then noices, add BG sound and tint screen or add animation
