Sorry this is probably really basic but I'm struggling to find the answers.

I am making a game using the tumbleweed verb menu, when my character walks over a hotspot I want it to load a cutscene where the menu and character disappears and it loads a slide show of images with text over timed then goes back to the previous room.

Any help gratefully received!

You need to use regions.
Make the character stop when he steps in/enters the region, then turn off the menu and character (you can just use cCharacter.transparent=100) then run your cutscene, and at the end change him back to the previous room (and remember to turn him visible again in the new room in room load).
There are those who believe that life here began out there...

Thanks I tried

function room_load()
{
cRoger.Transparency=100;
}

but I can still see him when the room loads, am I missing something?

Is your room_load() function properly plugged?
As in, you didn't just copy/pasted or wrote. You actually opened the room, clicked the event button (the yellow thunder icon) and then clicked the ... button on the "Enters room before fade-in" line ?
