I want to display a town name or area name but my actor can't move until the text finishes. Is there anyway around this?

Displaying a town name:

Make a picture file of your town's name. That way, you're not limited to the ugly text window and make the name as pretty as you want.

Set a parallel process that fades the name of the town in and then fades it out and then erase event. As long as you don't do anything else, your player movement shouldn't be restricted.
Ok thanks!

For Picture Transparency:

In MSPaint there is an option to "color" areas with Transparent Color. It is under the Dotted rectangle in my version of MSPaint.

After that, you go to RPGmaker2003, then the picture line in events, and check the box with Use Transparent Paint between Zoom and Picture settings.

I don't use MSPaint. I use Gale and Gimp. Yeah, you need to have a transparent layer. It's easy if your program allows you to set a transparent layer. Just remember that the transparent layer can be only one color.
