This might be a newbie question, but meh.

I am making a game, where you are introduced to the chatacter when he is sleeping, and it'd be much better to start with the screen black.

I've done the automatic tint screen effects, but there is always a moment, when you just start playing, you see the character.
How would I make it, that when a new game is started, the screen is black, but after dailouge is finished, it brightens?

Start the game on a black map, go into the database and change the actor graphic to none.

to start, make an event that transfers the player to your original starting position and change the actor graphic to what it should be.

Thats it.

Or in the tinit screen command, change wait to 1.

That won't have quite the right effect, because it fades the screen in to the map before processing tint screen and such.

Do what poisonshift said, except you don't even need to change the actor graphic. Just have no one in the starting party and the player will be invisible, then just add the party after.

put the player behind a fake tile

putting the player behind an above tile works too...

otherwise, you could go into the script editor, open Game_Screen, find the brightness and change it to 0.
to fade up use the fade in event command.
you could also in the same script find tint and change it to 0,0,0,0 and then use the tint screen event command to fade up into different colors.

I still think a black map with an empty character graphic is the easiest, but the harder ways work too.

I mean... I'm using the same thing in my game right now...
