CUT SCENES

I'm having trouble making an opening cutscene, thus saying I don't know how to.

If anyone can give me a tutorial or something on how to do this I'd be in your debt.

(forgive my grammar errors, I'm working in overtime to get work in on this game im working on, I've already had to overhaul the story, and Jebus the amount of text allowed in a text box before it cuts the words off is making me angry)

Uh, would help a lot if you could have more details on your problem. Also, depends on what you are trying to do since making an opening cut scene is just some events.

The event codes "Move Event", "Show Message" (or some variation thereoff), "Play BGM", and "Play Sound Effect" are your friends, no matter which RM you're using.
I shell post an example form YouTube so you know what I'm talking about.
Plus: I can already make normal cutscenes!

Thats a use of Pictures (The Clouds, Text, Border and Sunlight were all pictures) screen panning and events. If you know how to make a Normal Cutscene, then play around with those features. Experience is key in these types of things.
:'( Thanks Little Wing Guy, I'll try toying with that.
I'm having the same problem. I make cutscenes through Event Touch events that the player is transferred onto, then erase themselves with a self switch, but I can't do that with opening cutscenes since you can't place an event on the starting point. How do I fix this?

The way I start these things is by placing an event as "Autostart" (Make sure your hero is invisible). Autostart does not allow the player to do anything at all until the player is on a different map or you have turned the event off via switch.

...I can't believe I didn't think of that.
Fuck.
Thanks.
I saw a script that lets you add FMV cutscenes. if that's what you're talking about I'll go find it for you.
