huh? i thought it meant i could make a game for my ipod....now im even more confused.

I'm pretty sure "iPod Script" is something that, when you put it in your game, you can choose what music you want to listen to in-game (most likely from the menu or by pressing some keys on the keyboard that aren't already reserved for normal commands, like select & cancel).

...so it has nothing to do with an actual iPod.


Well put Rey!
I'm sorry if I did not make that clear before otter!

I'm just good at this stuff. (or maybe it's RMXP.org... nope, I'm just good. Also I'm not trying to advertise...)

Hm.. long time I no longer use rpg maker, how do you make a once in a game event? like a treasure chest or a man giving you an item only once. Or like you want to put various of the same events, but just so when you walk into one of them, all of the others desactivate and just one works. Like walking on a 2 tile road and you want to put an event, you can't just out it on one square since the player might miss it. ANd then if he goes back, he might have the event again because he touched the other side. ANd just incase in here it doesn't come, erase events forever when it passes, so when you comeback from a dungeon, you don't need to do the same event but instead, a new event (like make an event work till one goes out or you kill a boss). Hope you understood that, I always forget things.

1-time only events?
Piece of cake.
Make sure the rightmost/final event page for the event has nothing to it, is set invisible, "Above Characters," and either on Hero Touch or Press Button, and that it has a prerequisite (like, "Switch 'Defeat Four' is ON") that was set up before.

I think I outlined a treasure chest event somewhere before, but if Self-Switches aren't your thing (either you don't have them (RPG Makers 2003 and older) or it's for something that's wider than 1 unavoidable space, like the 2-tile wide road you mentioned), use normal Switches... or Variables :) .

Oh wait, I remember now.
I outlined a chest event in a PM. Want me to post a copy, or do you think you got it ( /:| )?

Anythin' else :) ?

copy it please, I want to know if I'm right :smile: thanks, I'll ask when I need anything else.
and huh? I already tried what you said, but it doesn't work, when I teleport back, I get the event again.
Preconditions, the first one is on. Just on, no name... transparent, touched by hero, above hero. What am I missing :?

When you teleport... back?
Did it ever stop working while you were on the same map?
Also, your words are cryptic--you know the blank event is the same event as the one-time-only one, but at the last Page, right?

(RPGM2003)
Treasure Chest

Then ur not doin it rite

That only happens if A) You teleport the event away from walkable space and set it to move into invisibility or B) You hit the "Erase Event" button in event commands.

Did one of those sound familiar, perhaps??
Because with my said method it's fail-proof... unless, of course, you turned the damn switch back off :wee: !

I did that before, but I mean like you do the event (get item event), enter a house, come back from the house, the event is back on.

To "install" a script, copy all the bits of the script page and paste them into a new page underneath the "Main" page. I tried an ABS once, and it had multiple pages. If there's a demo with it, you can quickly copy the pages and paste them exactly as they have them in the demo, then copy the items of the game folder (usually pictures and charactersets, and once there was even a new folder entitled "Gradients") into your game's folder.

Then, read the directions, and edit as they'd have you edit.

Did that help :o ?
