So first:

I basically want to create an extra option in the main menu to delete saves:

New Game
Continue
Delete Save(s)
Shutdown

Something like ^ This.
It would bring up the save files the way the Continue game option would and then if the user clicks on one of the files they could get a yes or no option to delete it.

I am not familiar with ruby. Is there a delete file command?
Is there way to call on dos commands like in c++?
Then I could at the very least just run the dos command. ?



As for complex lists:

I am looking to make choice menu for the player. Normally that would be the easy part just make an event using the choice command. However It's more complicated than that. I want the player to be able to choose from the list names of people who they have met. Only people they have met will be on the list. So the list gradually does get longer. Starting from zero this list would get quite a lot larger maybe only up to a certain number but then you can start choosing to replace names with new ones after? This is something I haven't figured out a concept for but I would love to get it working. I am going to have to learn Ruby at this rate. lol.

How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
So I was playing with filters and this looked interesting...

Versus the normal look...

Kind of gives a very different feel. :LZSexcite:
To whom ever person or persons who re-did the DS/DS+ asset packs for MV (as in, they are all 48x48, and not just x2 the pixel scale) .... THANK-YOU!!!!!!!!! XwwwwX
