Hey everyone I have a few questions - first one is I need help with this car scene. I want to car to crash into the character, and have them faint and fall. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.
sound car_crash
&overlay CAR SIDE BROWN shifts to -754 -8 in 2
&overlay CAR SIDE BROWN scales to 1.273 1.273
@LILLIAN is faint
sound off
Two, I have a character who I let the readers customize have a flashback scene when they are a kid. How do I have the kid character look the way the reader customized?
Three I’m having some problems with remembering outfits.
Here is the dressing game from the script:
label choosing_outfit_episode_10
&LILLIAN is think
NARRATOR
What should I wear?
choice
“Typical Lillian.”{
@LILLIAN is dustoff_loop
@pause for a beat
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10_3
@pause for a beat
gain chose_Typical_Lillian
}
“Lace.”{
@LILLIAN is dustoff_loop
@pause for a beat
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10
@pause for a beat
gain chose_Lace
}
“Camo.”{
@LILLIAN is dustoff_loop
@pause for a beat
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10_2
@pause for a beat
gain chose_Camo
}
&LILLIAN is think
NARRATOR
Is this good?
choice
“Heck yeah.”{
}
“No let me go back.”{
goto choosing_outfit_episode_10
}
Now here’s what is later in the script:
if (chose_Typical_Lillian){
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10_3
}elif (chose_Lace){
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10
}else (chose_Camo)
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10_2
}
Use the command:
@MC2 becomes MC
MC2 = whatever you decide to name the duplicate character
MC = whatever you decided to name the MC.
Then change the characters features to younger ones:
MC2 becomes MC
@MC2 changes hair into Double Bun Updo
@MC2 changes face into Round
Thank you so much- I really appreciate it- also I don’t watch it on the web previewer. Is there any other different coding I could try?
Can I see your full overlay commands
Heres the full scene:
EXT. LOOPING WOODS - NIGHT with CAR SIDE BROWN to 0.541 -518 -2
@overlay CAR SIDE BROWN shifts to -1028 42
@overlay CAR SIDE BROWN scales to 1.129 1.129
&zoom reset
@LILLIAN spot 1.280 -100 0
&LILLIAN walks to spot 1.280 500 0 in 4 AND LILLIAN is run_athletic
NARRATOR
I ran so fast, and so far.
I didn't know why I was running, or why I trusted Keel and just left.
I eventually came to a road, but didn't stop running there.
@LILLIAN spot 1.280 -60 0
&LILLIAN walks to spot 1.280 160 0 in 3.5 AND LILLIAN is run_athletic
NARRATOR
I kept going when suddenly...

@remove LILLIAN

So what’s not working?
She starts to fall, but then just idles.
And apparently she just idles for some people lol
The small change should fix the issue:
EXT. LOOPING WOODS - NIGHT with CAR SIDE BROWN to 0.541 -518 -2
@overlay CAR SIDE BROWN shifts to -1028 42
@overlay CAR SIDE BROWN scales to 1.129 1.129

Thank you so much!
sorry to keep bothering you lol but I followed the page you sent me for remembering choices however my script is giving me an error for this says that it is unexpected dialogue
If (Typical_Lillian){
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10_3
} elif (Lace){
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10
} else {
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10_2
}It’s no bother, babe
Let me see the whole thing
Nvm, I can just use the one you provided before:
label choosing_outfit_episode_10
&LILLIAN is think
NARRATOR
What should I wear?
choice (OutfitChoice)
“Typical Lillian.”{
@LILLIAN is dustoff_loop
@pause for a beat
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10_3
@pause for a beat
}
“Lace.”{
@LILLIAN is dustoff_loop
@pause for a beat
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10
@pause for a beat
}
“Camo.”{
@LILLIAN is dustoff_loop
@pause for a beat
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10_2
@pause for a beat
}
&LILLIAN is think
NARRATOR
Is this good?
choice
“Heck yeah.”{
}
“No let me go back.”{
goto choosing_outfit_episode_10
}
if (OutfitChoice is “Typical_Lillian”) {
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10_3
} elif (OutfitChoice is “Lace”) {
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10
} else {
@LILLIAN changes into LILLIAN_episode_10_2
}
okay thank you so much honestly this remembering outfit thing is killing me because I have her choose her outfit at the beginning of the episode and then three flashbacks in the episode lol
It’s tough, the guide I provided you with also has a Outfit Remembering template that can help.
omg thank you so much it worked bless your soul:)
Hey lol omg sorry to do this again I legit have no idea what to do- it worked in the script there were no errors, but then I went into viewing it on my ipad- and she didn’t have the outfit I chose 
I have no idea what happened- I literally copied and pasted the thing yo sent me into my script
Because I copy and pasted your code I forgot to remove the gains. Copy and paste it now, it should work
