Not sure who made it and how I can disable it.


Mainly I want it disabled for cutscenes in my game, anyone know a script command for this?

Basically you can't.


If the plugin writer provided some functions to activate or deactivate part of the plugin functions, you'll usually find them in the plugin help/description.


If those options were not programmed into the plugin, then there is no way.


Trying to disable a plugin while the game is running is like trying to work on the motor of your car - while driving at 50 mph on the highway.


You can't change any running plugin, you can only disable them if the game is stopped (and then disable them for the entire game).


I've moved this thread to Plugin Support. Please be sure to post your threads in the correct forum next time. Thank you.

It's a pretty simple plugin.  You'd be after a command that you could call via script that would simply hide that window (set its visible property to false is the most obvious method, but I have a feeling MV already plays around with the visible property when showing/hiding windows, so such a simple command may be overridden).


Try this in a script call to make it invisible:


SceneManager._scene._myWindow.visible = false;


and this to make it visible:


SceneManager._scene._myWindow.visible = true;






If it doesn't work, it'll probably be for the reason I said, and hopefully someone with more familiarity with showing/hiding windows will be able to correct it.  If it gives you an error, please post back with a screenshot of the console log (which you get to by hitting F8 when the error message appears).
