Ever wanted to have your title screen change as your player progresses through your story? With Ritter Title Progression plugin this has never been easier!

This plugin utilizes Global Persistent Data to change the title screen using plugin commands allowing the developer to change the title screen as their player progresses through the game!

Plugin Commands

SetTitleBackgroundImage

Use SetTitleBackgroundImage to easily change the Title Screen background image going forward.

Change to Image: Select the Image file you'd like to use as your background.
From Image: Select the Image file which must be the current background in order for the change to take effect. (This prevents new saves from reverting title screen progress).

* NOTE*
From Image can be left empty, empty as in "img/titles1" and the change will ALWAYS take effect.

SetTitleForegroundImage

Use SetTitleBackgroundImage to easily change the Title Screen foreground image going forward.

Change to Image: Select the Image file you'd like to use as your foreground.

From Image: Select the Image file which must be the current background in order for the change to take effect. (This prevents new saves from reverting title screen progress).

* NOTE*
From Image can be left empty, empty as in "img/titles2" and the change will ALWAYS take effect.

SetTitleBgm

Change to Bgm File: the audio file to use for the title screen bgm.
Pan: pan
Pitch: pitch
Volume: volume
From Bgm File: bgm file that must be currently active on the title screen for the change to take effect. (This prevents new saves from reverting title screen progress).

* NOTE*
From Bgm File can be left empty, empty as in "audio/bgm/" and the change will ALWAYS take effect. From Bgm File was left empty above for demonstration purposes.

Script Calls

(Script calls are mostly intended for conditional branch use)

Script calls are handy if we're trying to change multiple things at once, such as Background, foreground, and BGM all at once. We can check if the background Image is correct and if so then we can update the rest as well, as shown below.

Ritter.TitleProgression.isBackground(name)
name = (string) background filename

Returns true if filename matches current background image on title screen.

Ritter.TitleProgression.isForeground(name)
name = (string) foreground filename

Returns true if filename matches current foreground image on title screen.

Ritter.TitleProgression.isBgm(name)
name = (string) bgm filename

Returns true if filename matches current BGM on title screen.
