Hey. The script is great, everything works swimmingly... Only it doesn't let me use parallel process on text for cut scenes.

Is this fixable?


You should use Autorun for cutscenes.


Yeah, that's the first thing i tried changing. Still didn't work.


Hm... can you tell me exactly what happens when the cutscenes don't work?


Sure thing.

the player steps in to the area where the cut scene plays. The cut scene begins, and the first bit of text appears on screen. After the first bit of text appears, it is stuck on that bit of text and won't let the player pass to the next bit of text.

make sure you use switchers.  then make a precondition on what ever switch you use.

Switchers? Do you mean controlling event pages with switches? If not, please explain.

Hm... that happened to me before but I don't remember how I fixed it; sorry.

Edit:

Hm... can you take a screenie of the event processes?  I might be able to figure out the problem if you do.

I did. Its not the first bunch of text, its literally the first box of text... After that its completely stuck. Which is kind of distracting since 20 percent of my game are cutscenes.

If anyone has any idea on how to fix this, please let me know. if its something in the script that i need to change, so be it.

Sure thing, here it is:







Aqua

Oh I think I know!

The switch [Intro 2] gets turned on right after the text command gets processed whether or not the message window is open or closed.  So then, the 2nd page of that event with the switch as a condition runs while the message window is still open.  And you can't close the window because the even isn't on the 1st page anymore.

Lol I hope you understand me XD

I understand, but how would i go about fixing that?

Aqua

Try combining the 2nd page's events with the 1st page's.

How so? I always thought thats what the switch does.

shdwlink1993

She means that if the event looks like this:

Page 1:

Text: Something Seems Wrong.
Change Switch: Switch Thingy

Page 2 (Needs Switch Thingy ON):
Text: This is where the stuff goes.

Change it to this:

Page 1:
Text: Something seems wrong.
Change Switch: Switch Thingy
Test: This is where the stuff goes.

Sorta like that.

Still won't work, it gets stuck on the first box of text.

It's possibly a script problem... (I hope not)

If you suspect that a script is causing the trouble, simply remove it temporary and try it out again. If you still have the problem, it's not script related.

I figured out that it was because i was using your script and slipknots message script.

Is it possible to fix this so that they both work together? Otherwise i would just have to get rid of the message script, this is the obvious one to keep.

Hm... one possible fix is to get Ccoa's UMS at Rpg Revolution.

Her UMS seems to work fine with me... lol
