Super Simple Splash Screen Options

[amaranth]

I'm moving all of my scripts from rmxp.org to this site. I like it here better.

Introduction
This is a really simple splash screen for you. When you use this, two splash screens will appear when you open your game.

Steps
1. Open Main and change Scene_Title.new to Scene_Splash.new.

CODE

  $scene = Scene_Splash.new

2. Put two graphics called Intro-1.png and Intro-2.png into your project's \Graphics\Pictures folder.

(note: these graphics can also be jpgs, gifs, or bmps... it really depends upon your preference)


3. Add this Scene_Splash script above Main:

CODE

#------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Show two splashscreens when your game loads
#------------------------------------------------------------------------
class Scene_Splash
  
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ● Initialize the scene
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------  
def main
  
# Load the System database & create a new game  
$data_system = load_data("Data/System.rxdata")
$game_system = Game_System.new

# Initialize some transition stuff
@show = true
@hide = false
@n = 0
@splash_numb = 2

# Define info about each splash screen
@sprite1 = Sprite.new
@sprite1.bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture("Intro-1")
@sprite1.opacity = 0

@sprite2 = Sprite.new
@sprite2.bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture("Intro-2")
@sprite2.opacity = 0

# Update graphics and input
Graphics.transition
loop do
   Graphics.update
   Input.update
   update
   if $scene != self
     break
   end
end

# Discard your graphics when you leave this scene
Graphics.freeze
@sprite1.dispose
@sprite2.dispose
  
end

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ● Update the contents in this scene
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------

def update
  
   # If SPACEBAR is pressed, go to to title screen
   if Input.trigger?(Input::C)
      $scene = Scene_Title.new
   end
  
   # Change the opacity of the graphics
   transition
  
   # Update graphics
   @sprite1.update
   @sprite2.update
  
end
  
#--------------------------------------------------------------
# Transition through splash screens
#--------------------------------------------------------------  
def transition
        
      # Fade in a splashscreen
      if @show == true
         @n += 2
         if @n > 255
           @hide = true
           @show = false
           @n = 255
         end
       end
      
      # Fade out a splashscreen and load the next one
      if @hide == true
         @n -= 2
         if @n < 0
           @hide = false
           @show = true
           @splash_numb -= 1
           @n = 0
         end
       end      
      
      # Choose which action to perform in this scene
      case @splash_numb      
        when 0
          $scene = Scene_Title.new
        when 1
          @sprite2.opacity = @n
        when 2
          @sprite1.opacity = @n
      end      
      
end


end

4. Play your game!
