Probably really simple question about Show Picture events.

[Little Paw]

I want to have an item that, when used, displays a picture (the item itself is a treasure map).

I've figured that I need to make this item run a common event which displays the picture.

The problem is...

1. How do I prevent the player from moving when showing the picture?

2. How do I get the player to erase the picture through button press and return to the item menu?

In the common event, do the following:

1) show picture command

2) show text command with invisible background, no text and no face (basically placing nothing on screen, but for the program there is still a "message" that needs to be confirmed)

3) erase picture

Finished

Works perfectly, thanks

First open your Database

Go to the common event tab

Select any number from 001-.....

Now show picture form the command list by clicking an empty bar in the common event

display the picture of the treasure map use any #

The create a conditional branch from the command

go to tab 4 and look for the one that says  button is pressed (select A for now)

inside the conditional branch select erase picture and choose the # of the picture you chose for the treasure map

Create an item like treasure map from the item tab

look for the one that says common event in the item and select the common event you made earlier

select its use to always

now  and save and try the game.

If you have any question, don't hesitate to ask.
