Hey all, im sorry to bother you with such a trivial thing. im using the scripts from rataime's demo with sun, dynamic light, and reflection. when i added the ring menu script:

Content Hidden
On menu call, the shadows and reflections of the party members remain constant, but the party member graphics dissapear:

Im sure it's not a big problem to fix, but any help is well recived :).

An unfortunate thing about caterpillar scripts (in general). Unless it is an evented system using actual 'events' masquerading as your party members, most of the time the extra characters in your party are drawn as... clones.

They don't usualy take part in the Spriteset_Map section so when a menu script is brought up (any menu script), your extra party members are not going to be redrawn. When the menu disappears, your extra party members may have vanished only to reappear when you take a new step.

It is very common with all caterpillar scripts, from fukuyama's original straight through to Ccoa's and Trickster's.

Oh right, i guess its not so simple to fix then, ill have to bypass with with a menu background, ill make a background with a faded ring or something making only the first player visable so at least the menu still fits. Thank you for your input DerVVulfmanm if you like ill add the menu back to this thread when im done.
