I am working on a Horror Game with an Animated BG video as a parallax to give a creepy vibe.

So, I just bought this for RMMV but I am having trouble playing the video with the textbox and portrait in front of it. Can you give me the Script Command for playing a 1296*720 video (Trial.webm) with no transparency and looping on?

(I bought it with my other account Blen***_Rena*******)

This is the plugin I am talking about.

What script call are you using to modify video?

VasantJ140 days ago

Here's the Modify Script Command:

SceneManager.modifyVideo(1, 0, 0, 720, 1296, 1, true, true)

Here's the Script Command to play the video:

SceneManager.startVideo('Trial', false, 1, 0, 0, 1296, 720)

What am I doing wrong?

For r, I used true.

For below, I used true.

For below_object, I left it blank.

Also, I noticed something else. The Cache is not clearing despite the Script Command:

SceneManager.clearReserveVideos()

Everytime the video is played, more RAM is used. Eventually, it will crash if it keeps consuming RAM.

You need to modify the video to change what it plays below

VasantJ140 days ago

I don't understand. Can you give me the Script command for it using the reference given above? I just want to play the video below the TextBox, Text, Portraits, and choices.

Did you call the modify command before or after the video is playing?

VasantJ140 days ago

Before.

It needs to be called after

VasantJ140 days ago

Ok, I called it after and it fixed it. I think I was misunderstood by the demo since it called Modify first and then played the video.

BUT ALSO, THE CACHE IS NOT CLEARING OUT. Each instance being played stacks on one another eventually filling the RAM.

also, do not set below_object to true. The value for this is not boolean. You can leave this out entirely.
