how do you....

ok i have another problem though iill make it so that my charcter will move behind a barrel to hide(move event) then you hear the people talking but for there exit i made a door in which you need a password. how do i make it so that they can exit the door but when my player has to go in the door it asks for the password

Same as Atnas... or was it Asamin? ... asked in the "Personal Computer" thread:

Input Number.

It's the same for RMXP, so have a look there.

It was me, Asamin doesn't have windows haha. :b

Lol, how nice are you?!

Have you got it working, btw?

Well, not really, cause I haven't had the time to put it up on my webspace... I keep meaning to though, I just... never get around to it.

ok i looked at that but it only tells you how to make the door with a code but i want it so that in my cutscene somebody can go through it and then when its back to gameplay i have to go through it but i have to put in the key. how do i do that?

Switches again, then.

I like Conditional branches, but BC seems to prefer new pages. Personal choice, really.

Cutscene - Hero has to step on an event to set it off first. So on that event have a second switch turned on.

Then, in front of your door, have an event that is a conditional branch:

If Switch [0001] ON
<>
Else
<> Input Number yada yada yada

Then once the cutscene is over, have the switch turned off (stick it at the end of the event that controls the whole cutscene).

speaking of cutscenes and all, is it possible to have the two "black bars" on the top and bottom of the screen like on a widescreen movie?

ok im really confused sorry but im new to this ill put what i want done and could somebody plz put the steps on how to do it ill try to make it short

Cutscene

when my player walks to a certain point he stops and says he hears somebody so he hides without me controlling him then the screen shifts to the people talking and one guy says to the other what the password for the door is then they both walk through the door and the screen goes back to my player and hes in my control now so i go to the door and i put in the pass and it opens.

can somebody please put this into steps for me plz

RMXP? OK, I'll work on a quick, easy demo. Should be done by Friday. I'll Pm You the link to it on my webspace when I'm done.

Hey Lama! long time no see! as to your question about the black bars, you'll need to just make what they call 'frames'. Just make it the resolution of the screen with two black bars at the top,bottom of the screen in photoshop. Make the interior white. Import it into pictures in the rtp and select white as the transparent color. in an event select 'show picture'(2nd page) and put it to central pixel. Tell me if it doesn't work.

ok thanx ill wait for friday
