Variable Menu Design (VMD), A variable menu designer. Options

[Genshyu]

Introduction:
This is a menu system that I designed that lets you control the menu's position, and effects simply by using variables.


Features:
You can control your menu style in game.
Variables 41 - 55 become part of the menu.

Instructions:
Make variables 41 - 55 these:
41:
Command window X.
42:
Command window Y.
43:
Command window width.
44:
Command window height.
45:
Command window effect. (See effects.)
46:
Gold window X.
47:
Gold window Y.
48:
Gold window width.
49:
Gold window height.
50:
gold window effect. (See effects.)
51:
Status window X.
52:
Status window Y.
53:
Status widnow width.
54:
Status widnow height.
55:
Status window effect. (See effects.)
