If you want Star Wars games' music,you could go look Here (http://www.vgmusic.com)

I know only one free midi making program,but I don't remember where I loaded it.:confuse2:
Try using Google,something like Midi Maker.My programs name is
Midget.But it is little too hard for me.

I tried, but the closest I could come to finding StarWars sprites was this: TILES (http://purezc.com/index.php?page=tiles&title=star+wars&creator=&type=&sort=updated)

What do you mean by cutscene? Do you want a fancy one or just an opening screen? Better sutscenes require more work. I'm just wondering how much you're looking for.

A fancy one. The game is set on Mustafar (the lava planet) You play as obi-one. I need the cutscene after you beat Darth Vader. You know where obi-one says "YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE" blah blah blah. And if i can't find out how to make cutscenes i can just set a guy and a string.......but it wont look as good

It's quite complicated and I've never really done it myself. Basically you can set a timed warp on the screen data (in milliseconds I believe) and you have several rooms that you warp from one to the next at the time intervals you set. The actual warp target is set as side warp like when you pick up a triforce piece except that you probably want to use instawarp for cutscenes.

Yeah exactly what I did.

It will take bit of rehearsing to get your timing right, but a good cutscene will get people interested.

Cut scene,is easy do after triforce picking,because then player can't see it again.Put timed warps to next cut scene screen,just like others sayed.It is only way,what I know.
I have little idea,how make scenes before bosses or when you come in screen.But it works only theory,so I don't know how it really works.

First make screen where you want cut scene appear.Then place direct or stair warp somewhere in screen,and put tile warp to lead cutscene screen.Then open Data>enemies put trigger enemy in the screen.Then click flags button in enemy screen and check dungeon boss.Then go Data>Screen data and check enekies=secret and No secret sounds.

Then go data>secret combos and put in flag 16's box floor tile what is like your direct/stair warp,but it's type is none,and place flag 16 over your warp tiles.

Now,go your cut scene,and put there dungeon boss flag,check no secret sounds on screen data menu.
Now,when trigger isn't in this room,secrets triggers automatically when you enter in the room.Because this room have dungeon boss flag,and that overworld screen,ZC "thinks" that levels boss is defeated so it kills trigger in overworld screen,when warps turn normal floor tiles.This is permanent change,so if you enter again this room,you can't see cut scene.With this trick,you can make shops what change them inventory or towns where peoples speak different things etc.

Remember that these two dungeon boss flag screens must be in same dmap.And remember,that you can make only one "trigger enemy trick" in one dmap.
