"Credit" thing, Can someone help me? Options

[Pera]

Can someone help to make me a script so I can add between New Game, and Continue a "Credit" button?
Since my game is not fully made by me, I would like to add that so I can credit everyone else as well.
Also I will credit the person who helps me with this.
Thanks in advance!

Almost done it (don't expect too much of it though)

edit:

here it is, I know Kread-Ex told me to shorten my scripts to only what I had edited but I keep getting constant errors so I just did a whole rewrite.
If you have any compatibility issues let me know.

line #261 is what is displayed in credits. This is was the best I could do to my ability. If you think it's script worthy I'll post it in the RGSS2 section.

Edit: Kread-Ex made the code shorter for me and showed me how. Now you can just paste it below Materials instead of replacing Scene_Title
(The second codebox is the original script, first being the edit by Kread-Ex (Which you should use)
