How do I make a window Opaque?
You will have to explain in more detail what you want to do. Do you mean the windowskin? A specific window in the game? The game window itself? Your query is too vague to be answered properly.- Shiro-chan

Getting event to work with multiple conditions?
Variables are really not that different from switches. A switch is a boolean function, which means it only has two states: true/false, yes/no, on/off, 1/0 etc. Switches always start in the off (false) position. Variables are similar, just that they have more possible states. You use them as...- Shiro-chan

Efficiency standards
There is also the issue with scripts. Most scripts come from experienced scripters who will reasonably know what they're doing, so those new functions shouldn't add much, if any, lag. There are however also others (Sturgeon's Law and all that). Conversely there are anti-lag scripts which try to...- Shiro-chan

Event triggering for 2 locations

Efficient way to have 2+ characters on the map, talking and acting simultaneously?
If I understand you right, you don't need to do any of this. You just have to define as my move routes as there are chars, so one each, and only the last has Wait ON, the others have Wait OFF. From what I heard you cannot, however, have multiple text boxes open at once.- Shiro-chan

Trouble w/ Event Triggering From One Direction
Yeah, sounds like a direction fix issue. What you probably need to do is Direction Fix ON and use a moveroute that disables it, then plays your animation provided the player interacts with it. After that interaction is over, the last command should be a moveroute with the reverse and direction...- Shiro-chan

Semi transparent event issues. curse of a black box.
Maybe this will help you. Also, since your event already uses max speed and frequency, you can delete those instructions from its walk path. You should also set it to Above Characters, Action Button, and Through ON.- Shiro-chan

Erasing events on map to reduce lag?
I chose the maximum number to make sure it wouldn't be a fluke of my CPU being too powerful and thus falsifying the result once I erased all events.- Shiro-chan

Erasing events on map to reduce lag?
I've tried using the scriptcall $game_map.events[event_id].erase with a variable that runs in a loop to erase all 999 events on my test map, but even after they are all gone, the FPS counter is stuck at near-unusable levels. I was hoping erasing the events would actually tell the game to stop...- Shiro-chan

Sprites show up too small
You can use this grid as a base, it's 32x32 and in the format VXAce has its character sprites. Just make sure to use a $ at the start of the filename.- Shiro-chan

My tiles are overlapping? *resolved*
You only have one layer for categories B-E, that's why the window overwrites it. The wall texture has to be a file that's used on layer A. Alternatively make the window graphics events.- Shiro-chan

Moderators, you must have so much patience to be able to deal with everything. I mod in a server of sorts and today we just got a message, which, despite it's helpful constructive criticism, basically stated that all of the mods were jerks and that was the only reason our server was unlikeable. So, thank you, for having patience. You are appreciated!
