How to completely disable menu

[Hyperly]

I've only found threads for VX Ace and MV related to this since those versions have an option to disable it. I just want to completely disable it somehow. I don't plan on using a menu later on in my game.

This method which I don't recommend unless you want go through with it without help from XP script. (Not sure if RGSS for this exist yet)
Disables menu from the start after title screen. You can call save screen through event but not menu screen.

In your Script Editor [F11] which is under Tools,
Right-click on Scene_Menu which is below Scene_Map and delete Scene_Menu.

For line 216 in Scene_Map, add # in the front- (to prevent error popup from pressing menu key)

    #$scene = Scene_Menu.new

For line 209 in Scene_Map, add # in the front- (to remove sound effect of pressing menu key)

      #$game_system.se_play($data_system.decision_se)

Please backup your project beforehand.

Edit: changed instruction to add # instead of line deleting.

Thankyou so much, and thanks for the warning I'm using test projects right now before I do anything big. I was wondering if deleting the entire Scene_Menu script would be a safe idea or not, but from what you shown it looks pretty safe.

You're welcome. As long you're not using other menu script that goes with menu screen, no errors.

Edit: About what I said about delete those two lines on Scene_Map.
You can add # in front of the line and still works.

Line 209 in Scene_Map

      #$game_system.se_play($data_system.decision_se)

Line 216 in Scene_Map

    #$scene = Scene_Menu.new

I forgot that line deletion is bad practice for ruby scripting.

I'm not sure there is a way to disable a script in RPG Maker XP which is why I resort to deleting Scene_Menu.

I tested it with doing a script call but I could not reverse it. (the game locked up)
$game_system.menu_disabled = true

Don't worry I already did that beforehand, but thankyou for the tip.

An example of Roninator2's script call from event.

To setup script call method from the start:
Have an event trigger "Autorun" then insert Script...- (page 3 of Event Commands)

$game_system.menu_disabled = true

Then insert "Control Self Switch: A =ON"
New Event Page (p.2), checked Self Switch A is ON.
And for Trigger, Parallel Process

No need to delete Menu_Scene script from Script Editor.
In case someone asks about how to set up a script call.

Okay I actually decided to enable the menu again but I disabled everything but Items and End Game. This question is a little different and I sorta didn't want to make an entirely new thread for this. How do I make the items menu only display icons of items instead of text.
EDIT:
Okay i'm actually slowly figuring this stuff out on my own actually, but I still would appreciate some advice incase i'm doing something inefficiently.

About certain lines for Window_Item in Script Editor

Line 87, if you change-
x = 4 to x = 132
Icon looks centered

Put # in front of the following lines, to hide texts but this doesn't hide description window.
94 = display item name text
95 = display : between name and quantity # texts
96 = display text # of quantity

Thankyou, that helped me a bunch, lastly i'm sorta trying to get rid of the black background on the item menu, but I can't seem to find it.

 

[tale]

I think you fiddle with line 12 in Window_Item,
By default it should look like this.

    super(0, 64, 640, 416)

If you change the value of something-
Any number less than what's originally there,
a black background shows on the item menu.

Edit: I swear I didn't see Change Menu Access on the first page due to unfamiliarity.
I'm used to see page layout from VX/ Ace and MV which is found on the page 3.

Okay, why doesn't anyone just use the [Change Menu Access] event command??? Here, you can straight up disable the menu by way of an event. And you can change it back if you possibly need to.

The event command is in the first page of events, right column, near the bottom.

LMAO I just found it, anyways I changed the topic of the thread earlier because i'm dumb. I enabled the menu again, but am now having troubles with a black background on the Items window.

 

[Hyperly]

I'm having trouble making the Items display all of the icons, and I still can't figure out how to get rid of that background.
EDIT:
I ended up mostly fixing the item icons. There's still some issues with it but I think I got it working. I'm still trying to get rid of the background however.
Item Icon Fix:
On line 87 tinker around with the value in "UROWNVALUE" and be sure you have the right amount of columns, the amount of columns mean a lot
x = 12 + index % 2 * ( UROWNVALUE + 32)
