Opacity Change problem

[Arcor]

I'm trying to get my windowskin to be fully opaque all the time, since the background of it is gray and the text is white. It's difficult to read on about 160 opacity (160 is the default for the title Screen and the Battle Command Window)

So i dug around in my scripts for a little while, eventually finding this in Scene_Battle1

@actor_command_window.back_opacity = 160

I changed it to 255 and nothing happened. Surely something is a little off here?

Same deal with

@command_window.back_opacity = 160

from Scene_Title

try looking for windows skins here at rmxp.

The windowskin isn't the problem. I made my windowskin without any transparency. It's just the opacity setting.

sorry didn't read it right, all I can do is make it completely transparent, as for making it opaque all the time it is, opaque is where light cannot pass through it, white on gray isn't a good mix.

making the value higher won't make it darker or make it easier to read white writing on a gray background, so either a new window skin or change the color of the writing.

or I have got it wrong, in which case ignore me.

It's actually not that hard t oread, the grey is fairly dark. It's just that i prefer my windows to be totally 'solid'. Changing the opacity just doesn't seem to do anything though.

Try setting whatever_window.opacity = 255

If you're still not getting an opaque window, then something else is overriding your setting. Hunt around and find it.

It's quite strange, because i noticed that no changes i make to the Title scene actually seem to apply. I tried changin the words of New Game, Continue and Shutdown. Thing is, they're still the default.

gotta be another script that is overriding that. i had the same issue once and just had to look at a couple custom scripts i added. have you added anything that has to do with the title screen? try changing these settings from the windows_ not the scene_. maybe that will help.

 

[Arcor]

I don't have any scripts which should interfere with the title screen at all.
I went through the scripts below Scene_Title using Find to find "Shutdown" and nothing came up. (Shutdown is what i tried t ochange on the title, but it wasn't changing, so presumably anything overriding it would have the word Shutdown in it)

Don't you use SDK by any chance?

a script interference doesn't have to do with the title menu.

I had a side battle script that when you change the windows it also changes the title window but nothing else, and in that script had nothing to do with scene_title.

what scripts do you use?
