How would anyone go about doing something like this?
Zeus's video player has way too many issues displaying more than one movie, as it seems to lead to a black screen (on top of this, the script plays videos in its own seperate/hidden window, which makes it near impossible for some people to record any game cutscenes using this script when this issue happens.)

Estriole's video player is just as unusable, and even setting up one mpeg file script command leads to the game forcing it in fullscreen. The same issue persists (like with Zeus's video script), where the video displays as a dark purple/black color on recording software.

Is there absolutely any solution to this? The resolution I'm working with is 640x480, and I'm using the Zeus++ script at the moment to let the player toggle between 640x480 and 1280x960, but I can switch that script for another one (by Momomaru.)
I've been trying to figure out a solution to this issue for months, and absolutely nothing has worked so far.

Oh, I guess this isn't really anything that can purely be fixed through eventing, huh. Sorry about that.

I also noticed that VX Ace can't center movies, either? So it might not be an option to just make a second, bigger version of a cutscene that fits the bigger image resolution and play that whenever the engine detects someone playing with double screen size, because a majority of the movie won't play on screen. Only 1/4th of the movie will show up.

Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
