Just place this above main -

Version_2

Code:

class Floating_Location < Window_Base

   def initialize
      @map_name = get_name
      if @map_name == ""
            @size = [32,32]
      else
            @size = Win_Size.new(@map_name)
      end
      width = @size[0]
      height = @size[1]
      super(0, 0, width+32, height+32)
      self.contents = Bitmap.new(width, height)
      if @map_name == ""
            self.visible = false
      else      
            self.opacity = 240
            self.back_opacity = 240
            self.contents_opacity = 240
      end
      @frame_wait = Graphics.frame_count + 60
      refresh
   end

   def refresh
      self.contents.font.color = Color.new(217,87,0,255)
      self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, @size[0], @size[1], @map_name)
   end

   def update
      if @map_name == ""
         self.dispose
         return
      end
      if get_name != @map_name
         self.dispose
         return
      end
      if @frame_wait <= Graphics.frame_count
         if self.opacity > 0
            self.opacity -= 10
            self.back_opacity -= 10
            self.contents_opacity -= 10
         else
            self.dispose
            return
         end
      end
   end

   def get_name
      data = load_data("Data/MapInfos.rxdata")
      data[$game_map.map_id].name
   end

end

class Win_Size < Window_Base
  
   def initialize(text)
      super(0, 0, 640, 480)
      self.contents = Bitmap.new(640 - 32, 480 - 32)
      @w = contents.text_size(text).width
      @h = contents.text_size(text).height
      self.dispose
    end
    
   def [](value)
     if value == 0
       return @w
     else
       return @h
     end
   end

end

class Scene_Map

   alias   :main_orig   :main
   alias   :update_orig   :update
   alias   :transfer_player_orig  :transfer_player

   def main
      @floating_location.dispose unless @floating_location.nil?
      @floating_location = Floating_Location.new
      main_orig
      @floating_location.dispose unless (@floating_location.disposed? or
                                         @floating_location.nil?)
   end

   def update
      @floating_location.update unless (@floating_location.disposed? or
                                        @floating_location.nil?)
      update_orig
   end
    
   def transfer_player
      transfer_player_orig
      @floating_location.dispose unless (@floating_location.disposed? or
                                        @floating_location.nil?)
      @floating_location = Floating_Location.new
   end
end

To make it show longer find this line -

Code:

@frame_wait = Graphics.frame_count + 100

And just change the number at the end.

The window fades out automaticly, adjusts to the map's name, so it doesn't get obscured, and doesn't affect event, or player proccessing. No errors should come up.

EDIT : *update* Version 2 includes the ability to disable the window for certain maps such as cutscenes, simply make the map have no name, no spaces either.
