Description

This script represents the new save & load clean and minimalist interface. The highlight of this interface is 'preload' feature that allows you to see your real-time saved game before you load! Anyway, this feature is still in beta, I do not guarantee in any risks. Currently, I try for a few days without issues. Please tell me if it has any problems :)

If you would like to know how it works. Please visit the video clip example below.

I have something to ask about: When I am loading a save file that is on a map that has a parallel process that does something, in my case, fine-tunes some event positions and the like, there is a split second where they aren't processed before suddenly moving to their respective positions. The scripts that is mostly visible as part of the issue is Vlue's Fine Tuning script and Neon Black's Terrain Tags script, the first is used on parallel events. What do you think could be the solution to these?

Thank you for your question :)

This script normally has an effect in parallel process before you load. Anyway, I've blocked all of the autonomous movement so Vlue's Fine Tuning script will not work correctly.

Now I've added the new setup configuration "PRELOAD_MOVEMENT" that enables NPC's autonomous movement before you load. I think It can solve the issue in Vlue's Fine Tuning script but I am not sure it will has any other problem in future or not. Please try the new version in the same download URL.

In Neon Black's Terrain Tags script I am not sure what the problem is. If you mean the problem that when you save under the bridge, the player will go over the bridge after load. I try to disable my script, it still happen too.

How has this not gotten much attention?
It's brilliant!

Uh,Can you please reupload the script on this forum please.
The link to the script here is already dead.
(But on irpg.in.th the link is still work.)


Btw , Awesome script!

Hello,
First I'm terribly sorry about dead download links of script and example. Now I've recovered them.
I also change the term of use so now you can use this script in any projects including commercial projects. But giving a credit is still required :)

Thank you for your interest.

There seems to be some problem that the script is causing. Each time I try to load a file, it shows a error message with some problem in Scene_Title script, line 101. Can someone help me?

You are probably trying to load a saved file from before you put the script in.
When you add new scripts, you will likely have to start a new game.
So try starting a new game then save and load.

The problem is still appearing. However, something strange is that when I save a file, it works fine (the saving process with script) but when I try to enter the Save Files menu from the Title Screen, it says there is some problem with Scene_Title , line 101.

Where do you have the script placed?
Can you show a screenshot of your script list with this script in it?

I put this into a test project and it works fine.

Mine works, but it doesn't work with RGD. @Roninator2 did you get it to work with RGD?

@BCj What is RGD?

@Roninator2 https://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?threads/rgd-directx-implementation-of-rgss3.95228/
I thought you used this too?

@BCj No I don't use RGD. It conflicts with too many scripts.
