Map CreditVersion 1.0
by Woratana
Release Date: 10/05/2008 *Prom Night~*
IntroductionSame as old XP credit script that I have no idea who is originally scripted that
Anyway, this script has same way to setup the credit, but the different is CREDIT WILL SHOW IN MAP!!
Why the credit in map is better?
Because you can move event, show picture, do other thing else while credit text is scrolling.
And you can also decorate text in credit the way you like with tag, like <b> for bold text, or <i> for italic text.
You can set the background image you want to show when credit is scrolling too~
FeaturesVersion 1.0- You can use background image
- You can decorate text with special tags
- You can setup default decoration for header text (text that include <h>) and normal text
- Credit will run in map, so you can use your eventing skill to make credit scene more interesting.

May 11 2008, 02:48 PM
I'm not sure if this will work
but you can try this to show credit in other scene~
Copy this part:
CODE
#----------------------------------------
# Plug Credit to Map >_> <_<~
#----------------------------------------
class Scene_Map < Scene_Base
attr_reader :credit
alias wor_mapcre_scemap_str start
alias wor_mapcre_scemap_upd update
alias wor_mapcre_scemap_ter terminate
def start
@credit = Wora_Map_Credit.new # Create Credit
wor_mapcre_scemap_str
end
def update
@credit.update # Update Credit
wor_mapcre_scemap_upd
end
def terminate
@credit.terminate # Dispose Credit
wor_mapcre_scemap_ter
end
end
And at line:
CODE
class Scene_Map < Scene_Base
change
Scene_Map to other scene, e.g.
Scene_Title

Setup the script first
CODE
BG_Image = 'credit_bg' # Background Image file name, image must be in folder 'Picture'
# leave '' for no background

Does have a way of changing the images in the background, but keeping the credits rolling normally?
woratana
May 11 2008, 07:53 PM
Just use event command 'Show Picture' instead.

May 11 2008, 11:04 PM
Is there a way to force it to return to the title screen after its done? or after you press a button?
Azuaya
May 11 2008, 11:41 PM
no worries, I will just probably add the credits at the end of the game so ye .... but I just hope people are bothered to read it >.<
Edit: I have created a separate window of displaying two commands, Start Credit and Back To Title ^^ yay finally a separate page for showing credits =]
woratana
May 11 2008, 11:43 PM

@Suraksin Varja
Just use event command

well credits to you for this script man, finally I can show people of who I've credit to ^^
Oh you may have notice but whenever someone press the start credit twice during half way been shown, the first one will freeze there instead of clearing it out you know? which is a problem for title ... oh well still good since I maybe have to add another command to clear it.
Suraksin Varja
May 12 2008, 01:19 AM
Yeah but I'm runin the script off a Tittle Command, so when you hit credits at the tittle it loads this script. not too sure how to make it return to the tittle screen once its finished.. it just plays over and over lol
there's got to be a script line I could add that would end the credits and return me to the tittle, I'm just not too familiar with scripting to figure it out lol.
EDIT: hehe didnt see the above post- what did you do to create the new window? and yeah im havin the same prob with the creds locking up and replayn over itself.

First things first, I'm going to test out after when credit is finished like put a number of waiting frames, then it'll return back to title but I need to know what's the syntax for Wait frames? Does anyone know?
Edit: Don't worry I've tried the wait frames as well and it appears it'll just be the same T.T
Second, Ermmm I'll post mine up here but you'll need to use Woratana's Custom Title Screen Menu.
1. After you use that, go to your database, change the new game, continue or end to whatever you want since it won't show up on title no more.
2. Go to script editor, go to Vocab (at the top), go all the way to the bottom.
3. Add this,
CODE
# Start Credits
def self.start_credits
return $data_system.terms.new_game *Note* Look at step one and you'll know what I mean for that new_game
end
# End Credits
def self.end_credits
return $data_system.terms.to_title
end
4. Then now for the big bits.... even though I did used the scene_title script lol for the command windows.
CODE
#==============================================================================
# ** Scene_Credits
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# This section shows options of start credit and back to title.
#==============================================================================
class Scene_Credits < Scene_Base
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------

end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Frame Update

def update
super
@command_window.update
if Input.trigger?(Input::C)
case @command_window.index
when 0 #Start Credit
command_start_credits
when 1 #Back to Title
command_end_credits
end
end
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Create Title Graphic
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def create_title_graphic
@sprite = Sprite.new
@sprite.bitmap = Cache.system("Title")
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Dispose of Title Graphic
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def dispose_title_graphic
@sprite.bitmap.dispose
@sprite.dispose
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Create Command Window
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def create_command_window
s1 = Vocab::start_credits
s2 = Vocab::end_credits
@command_window = Window_Command.new(172, [s1, s2])
@command_window.x = (915 - @command_window.width) / 2
@command_window.y = 280
@command_window.opacity = 25
@command_window.openness = 0
@command_window.open
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Dispose of Command Window
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def dispose_command_window
@command_window.dispose
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Open Command Window
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def open_command_window
@command_window.open
begin
@command_window.update
Graphics.update
end until @command_window.openness == 255
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Close Command Window
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def close_command_window
@command_window.close
begin
@command_window.update
Graphics.update
end until @command_window.openness == 0
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Play Title Screen Music
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def play_title_music
$data_system.title_bgm.play
RPG::BGS.stop
RPG::ME.stop
end
#-----------------------------------------
# * Start Credit Showing
#-----------------------------------------
def command_start_credits
$scene.credit.start
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Command: To Title
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def command_end_credits
$scene = Scene_Title.new
close_command_window
end
end
5. Finally go to Woratana's Custom Title Screen Menu script and add COMMAND[n] = ['Credits', '$scene = Scene_Credits.new'] *n = number*
There you go, then it should work OO else ... PM me
Suraksin Varja
May 12 2008, 01:56 AM
This is what I'm getn
Script 'Scene_Credits" Line 72: NoMethodError occurred
undefined method 'start_credits' for Vocab:Module
Works decently using $scene.credit.start in the command on the title screen, but it wont stop scrolling or return to title lol

We're seem to have gone off-topic OO well sorry I apologize... we'll take it to the PM if more problems keep occurring.
Go to script editor, go to Vocab (at the top) select that script, now you see all those scripts? go all the way down from Vocab scripts.
Then add these
# Start Credits
def self.start_credits
return $data_system.terms.new_game
end
# End Credits
def self.end_credits
return $data_system.terms.to_title
end
and it'll work after that.

May 16 2008, 02:51 PM
@zombie: You got to copy and place the script at script editor however paste it in the material section just above MAIN.
Now for that error, simply look for this line:
CODE
BG_Image = 'credit_bg' # Background Image file name, image must be in folder 'Picture'
Then take out the
credit_bg if you don't have any background image.

This is a really easy-to-use and handy script. I wouldn't be surprised if it was used in over 100 Projects.
In fact Im going to eventually use it, and you're going in my first section when I make the credits.

umm, sorry if this is a stupid question. also new to rpgmaker, here. ^^'
I used an event with the call script, but the credits don't show up.
When I make the event action-button triggered, credits show up - but when it is autorun they don't.
>_<
I even tried every other trigger but it only seems to work with the action button one.

I had the same problem but I fixed it, but now I have another error when I was testing it.

I knoe its not Wora's script but the minute I fixed it this started to happen. Sooo did I do anything wrong?

Hey, very nice script, but I'm having the following problem trying to get it to work:
When I get onto the map where there's an Autorun event telling the credits to run, it brings up this error message:
QUOTE
Script 'VX Credits System' line 256: NoMethodError occurred.
undefined method `font' for #<Sprite:0x1c5ec40>
The only things I'd altered in the script were the actual credits to read what I want them to read and the font names in the config section.
I'm using a variety of other scripts, but probably most importantly, Woratana's Neo Message System Version 3.0 Beta.
Thanks for any help you can give!

Thanks, i have been looking for something like this, btw how you make the credits background transparent `?
woratana
Aug 29 2008, 10:45 AM
@Ryukodomo
Try using number with decimal place for speed, like 0.5 or 0.2
@Syeira
You have to erase that event after you call script, or it will keep call script to start map credit again and again.
@cheahjc
Check if you fix it right, you have to change it to this...
CODE
BG_Image = ''
@brawler
Check if you call script correctly.
CODE
$scene.credit.start
Since I didn't do anything with Game_Interpreter.
@Nekuramanji
Try this:
Change this...
CODE
# Bold Text
if i.include?('<b>')
i.sub!('<b>', ''); @sprite.font.bold = true
elsif i.include?('</b>')
i.sub!('</b>', ''); @sprite.font.bold = false
end
# Italic Text
if i.include?('<i>')
i.sub!('<i>', ''); @sprite.font.italic = true
elsif i.include?('</i>')
i.sub!('</i>', ''); @sprite.font.italic = false
end
to...
CODE
# Bold Text
if i.include?('<b>')
i.sub!('<b>', ''); @sprite.bitmap.font.bold = true
elsif i.include?('</b>')
i.sub!('</b>', ''); @sprite.bitmap.font.bold = false
end
# Italic Text
if i.include?('<i>')
i.sub!('<i>', ''); @sprite.bitmap.font.italic = true
elsif i.include?('</i>')
i.sub!('</i>', ''); @sprite.bitmap.font.italic = false
end
Let me know it works or not.

Don't think this is breaking the rules or anything but...
Woratana, I have a question; Can I use this in combination with your other script for credits on the Title? Or would I have to get rid of that in order to use it?
woratana
Sep 16 2008, 06:44 AM
Can you show me the script to show credit in the title?
So I can take a look if it's gonna crash, and find way to fix it. ^^

May you please post the line of the script in here (line 155 I think is the one you stated). Also you should leave the BG_Image as BG_Image = '' if you don't want to use a background image.

Jan 18 2009, 08:22 AM
I've had another problem with this script; when it gets to the Credits screen and I press action button to activate the script call for the credits, it gives me this message:
QUOTE
Script 'VX Credits System' line 420: RGSSError occurred.
failed to create bitmap.
I can't fathom what's wrong with it since that line has exactly the same code as was in the original script, and I haven't changed anything since I had it working except the font of the contents text (the new font is in the VX fonts folder) and the size of it (28 as opposed to 24).
Hope that's enough info, and thanks for any help you can give!
woratana
Jan 18 2009, 07:11 PM
I think the credit bitmap is too small, so it doesn't work.
(Or maybe credit bitmap is too large? I've never face this problem before though)
NekuraManji
Jan 19 2009, 05:01 AM
That's the thing, I'm not using a bitmap image or anything- the part where it asks for one still says '', for no image. My credits are just text scrolling upwards on a black screen.
I'll try making them a bit shorter just in case there's a limit to how many lines the credits can be, and let you know if that works.

Jan 19 2009, 05:12 AM

I think you did something wrong with setup part, maybe.

That means you didn't setup the script properly. By default it looks for and displays a background image while running the credits. If you don't want a background image behind the text, replace line 52 with:
CODE
BG_Image = ''
Those are apostrophes, by the way. Not a quotation mark.
If you do want a background image displayed, you must change line 52 to what your picture file's name is, minus the extension. That file must also be in your project's "Picture" folder.

I'm slightly confused by this:

- Start credit by call script:

$scene.credit.start
- Stop and Clear credit by call script:
CODE
$scene.credit.terminate
Do these go in the credits script, Game_Interpreter system script, or...?
