Anyone played Rockman? In that game, when You hit START during a level, it opens up a menu screen, but also pauses the game. In that menu, You can change powers You have. I wanna do the same, but make it so You can select a character and when un-pausing it, You would be that character. Any tips?
Daniel_M. What you want sounds simple, but actually invloves a lot. If you would, please go to my website. There you will find examples of everything you mentioned. Good luck with your project.

That is simple to pull off. I actually made a game like Rockman a while back in MMF1.5 and it was extremely easy to do what you have in mind.
Thank-You much! I see it is pretty simple! :3

@Marv:
Thanks for all those examples on your page. I downloaded the basic pause screen example but it doesn't work with my app at all even though I did it exactly as shown in your example.
What am I doing wrong?
Can we have an example of how to change some options while paused? I'm using HWA and therefore modal pop-ups have no effect. The save/load position feature in MMF2 seems to have so many bugs that it's unusable and nobody at Clickteam seems to have the proper inclination to make it work.
Crash86. Try putting all your events into a group and deactivate and activate it, or use the Midi feature.
Bogeyman. I will take a look at it.

The whole "deactivate your events" is a good idea but a lot of work, given that you have to stop and start all the movements for all objects etc.
What's the midi feature? That doesn't ring a bell. It sounds interesting ...
About the previous example: I'm not sure if the "use another frame from the same application" option actually works in MMF2.
You might have to compile a separate .ccn file that contains your menu sub-application.
@crash86: It does work with Marvins example so it should work at all.
Marv, excellent example. Thank you! Now, the question. How would I go about this. For example,..say you get a new weapon by finding the whatever in your game,...how can this be placed for use in the sub application for use at a later time. What I mean is,.you get the new weapon,.but it's not available until you go to the sub app (menu) and click on it to change to the new weapon and still have the choice to use the old one. Does this make sense?
Thanks. Check out the Community RPG Project, Zoric, and Under Nivram. The first three examples on my sight.Quote:
