v2.0





Description

Easier to configure the title screen options, also added "Arena" which just warps you to a different starting point. (can be configured.)
There is a "controls" option that shows you the controls. (brings up a picture, so it doesn't have to be controls.)

NOTE: the title changer isn't currently working. so don't change it or the switch number.

Instructions

Place above main, and you must have this in the system folder:
A .png named "Controls"




EDIT: Found bug in v2.0 - Fixing.

This script is interesting. Thank you very much for sharing. However,would you please tell me what sort of picture do I place for the "Controls" command? What does this command do anyway?

Well, it doesnt necissarilly have to be controls. it just shows a picture. what i mean by controls, i mean like this, same basic idea. it shows the controls on how to play the game.

it shows a picture of the controls. if you want it to show something else, do the following:

1. in RDVOCAB,

RDVOCAB::NEW_GAME = "New Game" # Name for New Game.
RDVOCAB::CONTINUE = "Continue" # Name for Continue.
RDVOCAB::ARENA = "Arena" # Name for Arena.
RDVOCAB::CONTROLS = "Controls" # Name for Controls. <- change the name of this to whatever,
RDVOCAB::SHUTDOWN = "Shutdown" # Name for Shutdown.

Example:
RDVOCAB::CONTROLS = "Credits" # Name for Controls.

2.in RDCONFIG, change this name to the filename of the picture.

CONTROLS = "Controls" # Name for the controls graphic in Graphics/System <- This says what the filename should be in the graphics/system folder.

Example:

CONTROLS = "Credits" # Name for the controls graphic in Graphics/System
# Folder.
And now it will say "Credits" in the title, instead of "controls". And the png. you have in the Graphics system folder, should now be "credits"if you understand what i'm saying lol.

You can do the same with "Arena". all arena does is strat the player in a different map. so it could be unlockables, extras, quests, etc.

BUMP

Very nice idea for a script. Shall test this later when I have a chance.

I especially like the idea behind 'controls' to show the controls used to play the game. I always wondered how I'd implement that into one of my games, and I hate having characters say "To open menu, push THIS BUTTON". Having this out in the open at first for players to view is just a little nice feature. Thanks.

I might use it in a little personal project or somefin'.

I will be working on this again soon! I plan to make it so customizable the engine looks bad!

Hey pika, i didn't know you can script.
its scott...

Sadly, Prelude Dikter left for years - if he indeed comes back in 2013 or not is another story - so I'm closing this.

This has been re-opened. I could work on it, but i have no way to test it for bugs or anything.. any volunteers?

* NEW *

Updates in version 2.0 -

- Can now start on a map before the title screen, Thus able to make an intro.

Also, I have no way of nowing if there are errors, bugs, or glitches. Report back if you find something please.
