Customization

Line 35, 37 and 39. Change the value there if needed.


Compatibility

@puppeot4 it's really nice script.

Read 'Installation' on the first page.

And nice script puppeto ^.^

[Protoman5801]

Cool, I've been looking for a script like this!

[Guest_From_Ariel_*]

This would be perfect especially if it was combined with a newgame plus like script like in Chrono Trigger


If your not aware in chrono trigger when you complete the game it gives you the new game plus option.....
You keep items and levels but basically everything is returned to the start state at beginning of the game and you can play through a second time like monster easy

[rebirth2life]

Thank you for the script!

[Eiffenheart]

Awesome.
I'll try this, absolutely have to try.

Thanks puppeto4.

[Bando]

I'm using this with the Neo Save System by Woratana.

A: It has the resume option even though I haven't saved in that file yet.

B: When I click it, I get an error:

[Show/Hide] Error

CODE

Script 'Neo Save System' line 282: NoMethodError occurred.

undefined method `file_exist?' for nil:NilClass

And this is what is in the line: (from 274 to 293)

[Show/Hide] Code

CODE

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Select File With Newest Timestamp
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def latest_file_index
latest_index = 0
latest_time = Time.at(0)
(1..MAX_SAVE_SLOT).each do |i|
file_name = make_filename(i - 1)
next if !@window_slotdetail.file_exist?(i)
file_time = File.mtime(file_name)
if file_time > latest_time
latest_time = file_time
latest_index = i - 1
end
end
return latest_index
end
end

class Window_SlotList < Window_Command

A: Weirdly, it didn't happen to me. Try to check if you can load from main title.

B: Updated the script to version 1.1

cheers,puppeto4.

[ClawsofSlash]

Excellent script. I'll see usage by me.
One thing though, when I hit the resume, I get no background music for the area it loads me to.
Any suggestions?

[YanXie]

Weird, I've tried to add BGM & BGS for the playtest map... and it didn't happen to me D;

Anyway... just try to add this :

CODE

    # Autoplay the BGM & BGS of the map
    $game_map.autoplay

Below this line(line 105) :

CODE

terminate

See if that works.

cheers,puppeto4.

[ClawsofSlash]

Nope, unfortunately even with that in there, it doesn't play the BGM of the area it's loaded into.

I've also come to realise that the combat sequence I get into not long after also has no BGM.

EDIT: Actually, I just tested something and used multiple BGMs. None of them played after loading from the enhanced game over. One was a .mp3, one a .midi, and one a .wav... just to test.

Weird, since it works for me... try to use this script in a new project and see if the problem still occur.

cheers, puppeto4.

[Vanisher]

Hello, I have the same problem as theirs. I tried copying these two lines under "line 105":

CODE

# Autoplay the BGM & BGS of the map
$game_map.autoplay

But it doesn't work. How can I repair this?

I tried this script in an empty new project, and it worked fine(the BGM & BGS played like normal).

Is there any other kind of save script that you use, like Neo Save or anything other than that?

cheers, puppeto4.

I don't have the Neo Save script in my existing project. I have some Neo Message scripts, some KGC scripts, Quest Journal, Battle Background and a Slanted Bar script. And also, I put the Game Over Enhanced script below the other scripts.

Anyway, the BGM & BGS did not play normally on my existing project.

[YanXie]

Since I couldn't duplicate the error, I think it's better that you upload your existing project and send it to me(by PM or post here) so that I can look for the faulty codes.

cheers, puppeto4.

CODE

# Note    : Order Pizza Hut, support the rebellion.

What does that have to do with the script?
I like pizza hut but the one here is disgusting

[ClawsofSlash]

I still get it.
I made a blank game, started out and saved, then ran around until combat began. Died. Loaded up my position, and I've got no BGMs. Combat ensues once more, and no BGMs. I even tried waiting until my defeat music is over, but to no avail. I'll pack up the little thing I made and send it to you, see if you get it to.
