Your choices don’t have to be gold-that’s your choice : )
If you’re referring to your gains, if both of them are gold and selected, you don’t want that-you only want one gain selected and in gold.
You have to reset your flags and play through different options, your readers don’t.

Please elaborate on what you mean. I’m kind of confused.

Your choices don’t need to be the color gold. You can add that in if you want.

Okay I understand now. Hopefully, my readers while be able to see the outcome of the choice that they chose :slight_smile: Thanks for taking the time out to help me. You helped me a lot and I appreciate it.

No problem : )

How to add Gem Choices in your stories, according to the Episode Guides:

So, it would look something like this:

choice (NAME)
< GEMS >“Choice 1”{
NARR
Scene for choice 1 goes here.
}“Choice 2”{
NARR
Scene for choice 2 goes here.
}

*By the way, you can include more than 2 options for a choice.

Also, you don’t need to be part of the Writer’s Payment to qualify-read this, which is also from the Episode guides:

Hope this helps anybody who wants to add a gem choice in their story!

Remember that you could always check out the Episode guides and this thread regarding gem choices: Community Author Gem Choices are here for everyone!

Also, a gem choice looks like this:

Hi, can someone help me create a camera shake template for this scene in my story?

Here’s how to make the screen shake:

You can look at the template on episodelife.com to see how it’s done:

http://www.episodelife.com/2017/03/camera-shake-script-template.html

This script template uses these zooms to give off a camera shake effect:

@zoom on 126 160 to 155% 0.1
@zoom on 126 0 to 155% 0.1
@zoom on 126 160 to 155% 0.1
@zoom on 126 0 to 155% 0.1

As you can see there’s a pattern and you can even play around with the numbers ^^

I can’t get the camera to stay on the characters when the camera shakes

Just PMed you :wink:

Bumping this : )

What do you prefer?
1 or 2 choices per episode which change the whole plot, or a lot of basic choices? :thinking:

I would go with the 1 or 2 choices that change the plot heavily : )
Most readers, I believe, like making choices that have a big impact on the story ^^

Inside of an if/elif/else I have a locked choice and I need to put a label there so that the reader can go back and choose again because the choice is locked (hehe does this make sense?). Anyways, my script says that I can’t put a label inside an if/elif/else thing, so I was wondering what I can do instead? Thanks in advance, it’s so nice of you to create a thread like this!

Oh nevermind, I figured it out :sweat_smile:

Glad to hear :wink:
