Sorry I posted again on the forum in such a short amount of time. I tried searching for a way to have a little opening of some sort (pictures only) or a screen where I give credit to script creators, etc. show up before the title screen, but every link I find is outdated and directed towards RMXP.org or any other now gone website. Anyone know how I can do this?

Yes. You can open up the script editor and add some images to play before the title screen shows. I'll have to look at the actual script to see how it does it to replicate it though.

In Scene_Title you can insert this between the load database calls and initializing the system class ($game_system = Game_System.new) and before it makes the title screen graphics (@sprite = Sprite.new; @sprite.bitmap = RPG::Cache.title($data_system.title_name);)

# Load splash screen graphic
splash_screen = Sprite.new
splash_screen.bitmap = RPG::Cache.title("NAME OF SPLASH SCREEN HERE")
# Fade it in over time
splash_screen.opacity = 0
opacity_change_per_frame = 12 # Maximum opacity is 255 and RMXP runs at a default rate of 40 frames per second. At 12 opacity change per frame it will fade in completely after half a second
while splash_screen.opacity < 255
  splash_screen.opacity += opacity_change_per_frame
  Graphics.update # This will draw a frame to the screen
end
# Keep the splash screen up for a few seconds
for i in 0..120 # The end number is the number of frames it will be up. 120 frames @ 40 FPS = 3 seconds
  Graphics.update
end
# Now we simply fade out
while splash_screen.opacity > 0
  splash_screen.opacity -= opacity_change_per_frame
  Graphics.update
end
# We're done with the splash screen graphic so dispose it
splash_screen.dispose

# This is where "# Make title graphic" will appear
