Redd's SaveCheck, Scene_Title Edit Options

[Redd]

This checks if a saved game is there, and if there is one, it automatically comes up with a load screen at the title screen, which you can exit out of if you want to. Place above Main, instructions are in the script.

CODE

#===============================================================================
# ** Redd's SaveCheck
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  This nifty script checks to see if there is a saved game or not. If there is
#  a saved game, it automatically comes up with a Load Screen to load up your
#  previously saved game!
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  Instructions
#
#  To use this, all you have to do is change the $scene = Scene_Title in Main to
#  $scene = Scene_SaveCheck. That's it. Seriously. It should be around line 10
#  to 15 where you change it.

Nice script Redd, might just use this. Depends how everything turns out.

[Redd]

Thanks Bigace! Glad to know someone actually likes it

[demonicblade]

looks great, but what if you're using another save/load script, then would it still load that one?

I'll be using it either way I think, but it would be nice to know wether or not I'll have to configure one of my scripts because of this one...

[Redd]

If you are using another save/load script, just post it here and I'll configure it for you.
Wouldn't be too hard, considering all you would have to change is the "Scene_Load.new" to "Scene_Loadex.new"
