N.A.S.T.Y. Animated Main Menu

Nelderson's Awesome Scripts To You

 

I wanted to make something like this for VX, but I guess I got to Ace first.....

 

This will make the main menu animated as you go into it.....I plan on implementing a bunch of features, at a later time. I just figured to release it, and see what you think.

 

As always, ask me any question, or suggest something in this thread!

That's alright. Nobody is nasty...

 

Oh yeah, I had something meaningless to add: kudos.

 

Seriously though, you should try implementing little .gif-like icons.

Not really.

[Michael Ponder Jr 36]

How would you set it up to close the same way it opens?

Where are the screenshots? I want to see what the script does...

Updated the script to transition out of the menu scene!

Really???....I don't feel like making an animated gif to show you....just take the 5 seconds to actually put it in and try it.....

[Michael Ponder Jr 36]

Yeah, it's not something that screen shots will show honestly.

You have to just try it, it basically slides the windows in and out from the sides of the screen rather than having them simple fade in, which looks a lot nicer in my opinion.

I'm almost never off this site for more than an hour unless I'm sleeping and when I am online I read everything and learn it.

[Knightmare 170]

Oh wow, yeah I totally should've saw that! Now I feel like a dope, thanks for clearing that up. So what's next on the NASTY agenda? A script that does my homework? Or perhaps a script that makes dessert?

[Rosenblack 79]

I want one that sleeps for me, so i can be on here every second of the day.

wait a second...

Maybe make it a bit more customizable, make it not so random, and have it set up so people can set the speed and where the screens come from.

Honestly, any customization others can do simply and effectively, is all it needs really.

I can't, Ace has not been translated to english yet. And from what I gather, trial comes with too many limitations.

Edited December 21, 2011 by MISTER BIG T

[Michael Ponder Jr 36]

Well, i tried it, so trust me, it works.

When it comes out in english you can use it.

It makes the windows slide out from the sides of the screen at random, rather than a simple fade in.

[ShinGamix 101]

Nelderson wats up guy! Nice to see you here. Not using the logo anymore? It is one of my favs I have done.

and I would also like you to a screen shot or two.

 

Now where is a side battle system (not the generic simple one)?

[john k 0]

Very Nice, its a keeper

[ShinGamix 101]

Anyway to make the title screen do this too?

Also Nelderson I'd like to see you make a animated title screen for Ace...please. or make the two layer title screen be able to scroll the pics?

[Michael 8]

this script gave me a good laugh when i noticed that the screens pop in in different order everytime. just wanted to test it, but i think i may keep this piece of Code... its actually quite awesome. =)

@Rosenblack,

Why you no admin?!

Anyways. Just tried this script. Simple, yet SLICK.
