SimpleEventFade.js (v1.1)


Introduction


This plugin adds the ability to make events fade in or out over a set duration of frames much more easily than having to repeatedly set the opacity over and over again. It should also be much smoother than doing that manually.


How to Use


Go to the Event you want to make fade in or out and find the location where you want to make the event take this action. Create a move route, click script in the bottom right of that window and add one of the following lines depending on what you want to do:


this.fadeIn(x)


this.fadeOut(x)


this.fadeTo(newOpac,x)


x should be the duration in frames that you want the fade to last. There is also a default value in the plugin's parameters so you could even enter something like this.fadeOut() and that'd work just as well. In the case of using this.fadeTo, you MUST set an opacity to fade to. For instance, saying this.fadeTo(150,60) would fade the event or player to 150 opacity from their current opacity over 60 frames. You could also just call this.fadeTo(150) and it'd use your default duration set in the plugin parameters.

Notes


This plugin should not require any other plugins, nor should it have any compatibility issues. It is free for use commercially and non-commercially so long as I am credited.


Also, I finished this plugin before I saw that Galv had already created a plugin with this functionality and more. If you need more functionality for your Move Routes I recommend checking it out: Galv's Move Route Extras


Known Issues


None at the moment.
