Does anyone know how to make everything in black and white except for your player character. Because I need it for a part where everything turns black and white except for the character.
I don't really know how else to explain it, because that's all there is to it.
If anyone does know though it would really help me a lot.
Thanks :smile:

you could always open up whatever tileset you're using in paint shop or something and change it to Grayscale. if you want a color tileset to "fade" to black and white, just make an identical map using the grayscale tileset and teleport the player there with a "fade" transition or whatever it's called.

not 100% sure this'll work (I haven't used RM in like forever) but good luck.
 
It's a bit tough and needs more than just regular events. You need to open up the tileset and any other sprites that will be in the scene in a graphics editing program (I believe Microsoft Paint can do this) and put the graphics in black and white there. Then, import the new black and white graphics back into RPGXP. Every graphic in the scene except the character, of course.

Just put the black and white graphics in that scene-tilesets, characters, whatever else is in there-and there ya go. Does that explain things?

EDIT: hey wow miek beat me to the punch by like a minute! and we pretty much said the same thing so
