Two quick questions...

[nellshini]

1) How do I get the cursor on Scene_File to disappear? I still want the other contents to appear, but I can't figure out where to toss the opacity tag.

2) How do I get the map name and hero name to appear on the Scene_File? I had it working once, but only if you were saving.

Thanks

This is how I did it. Right after this line in Scene_Save

Marshal.dump(characters, file)

I added

Marshal.dump([$game_party.actors[0].name, $game_party.actors[0].level, $game_map.name], file)

And then in Scene_Load, right after this line

characters = Marshal.load(file)

I added

lead = Marshal.load(file)

Finally, Window_SaveFile:

      @characters = Marshal.load(file)
      @lead = Marshal.load(file)
      @frame_count = Marshal.load(file)
      @game_system = Marshal.load(file)

        bitmap = RPG::Cache.face(@characters[i])

      sec = @total_sec % 60

      self.contents.font.color = normal_color
      self.contents.draw_text(4, 64, 600, 32, time_string, 2)
     
    end
  end

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def update_cursor_rect
    if @selected
      self.cursor_rect.set(0, 8, @name_width + 8, 32)
    else
      self.cursor_rect.empty
    end
  end
  
  def dispose
    @background_sprite.dispose
    super
  end
end

Ignore the part that draws the faces on it.

To get the cursor to disapear, just change this

def update_cursor_rect
    if @selected
      self.cursor_rect.set(0, 8, @name_width + 8, 32)
    else
      self.cursor_rect.empty
    end
  end

to this

def update_cursor_rect
      self.cursor_rect.empty
  end

I don't think a "Thanks" works here... your quick response just ended what I'd call a 3 hour marathon or writing, editing, and rewriting my scripts. Behold the (almost finished Save/Load screen, complete with overwrite protection:

Spoiler: The finished product?

Thanks again! Now I can move on to the more important things, like fixing Trick's script so that I can actually go into battle and writing my class system.
