Heyo, in my game there's a curtain in the theatre that I would like to raise into the air. I'm using parallax mapping, and how I'm currently doing it is I have a fixed black picture on the ceiling, that will conceal the curtain as it raises. The curtain is a fixed picture underneath this black picture... Problem is, you can't move fixed pictures.

An alternative would be fixing the picture without scripts-- but I've found no solution to that... Any other thoughts?

Does VXA not have a Move Picture command? If so, just use that.

That's what I tried initially, but the picture is fixed using a script. (Seer Uk's fixed pictures)
It just doesn't want to move...

Oh ok. So, create a copy of the curtain picture and remove the [FIXED] tag from your curtain picture that needs to move. Just hide the fixed picture when it's time to raise the curtain, and the other will still move.

I think that's about right. I would make the black background the fixed picture, then use the show picture command to put the curtain on and use move picture to raise the curtain.

Don't forget, aspiring writers: Personality isn't what your characters do, it is WHY they do it.
Hello! I would like to know if there are any pluggings or any way to customize how battles look?
I was thinking that when you start the battle for it to appear the eyes of your characters and opponents sorta like Ace Attorney.
Sadly I don't know how that would be possible so I would be needing help! If you can help me in any way I would really apreciate it!
The biggest debate we need to complete on which is better, Waffles or Pancakes?
