Alright, I'll look at that, I'm not getting the error but.




EDIT: Made a fix, try it.

[Ho-oh 112]

EDIT: Try now.

[krakacen]

PS: you can get a demo if it works for you?

I haven't used this script, but I know the answers to your questions.
1. Yes, you have to use Essentials.
The script was written in the RGSS language, and I don't think there is any way to convert it to any other scripting language with out rewriting the whole thing.
2. Probably, if they know where to look.
For example, if the URL to your text document was http://mygame.net/Gift.txt
the person could find your text document by typing in that address.
You can make it difficult, by not linking to it anywhere accept in your script.
btw, hi!
Haven't seen you in a while.
Don't guess you'd remember me though.
We planned out my hack a little.
That was before I realized the beauty of RPG Maker XP.

1. Yes

2. yes BUT they can't change the gift only view it so if that's what you mean if they can change it then no if you mean view yes. (although what Aaron said is correct only place it in my script if you don't want anyone to view it.)

@Aaron, this is possible to convert but you'll need to convert the socket's script too....

RGSS? This is RGSS, except it runs with essentials if you want it for a different kit you'll have to give me the link of it.

[Anglican]

OK... What I want is this script still in RGSS but not being dependent on essentials. Just normal RMXP scripts.... Is that ok and/or possible?

Yeah you need the sockets script from essentials if you want the downloading functions in different games.

[Anglican]

Ahh. Is the socket script just, like, able to be taken from essentials and plunk it into a new project, brand new?

yup that's right I've done it a few times...

[krakacen]

hello, the script works but I have another problem:
When you get the gift, is available, no?
The problem is that the event is repeated many times allowing to obtain the same gift
Can you help me?

Ok. there are a few ways to do this, depending what you're doing.
If:
a) There is only one event where you may receive the gift AND you have 4 or less gifts.

With your current mystery gift event, simply put in multiple conditional branches, all of which check self switches.
After the check goes by. make sure that if selfswitch a is on, check b and so on.
if selfswitch a in not turned on, then make it do the mystery gift thing and then turn selfswitch a on. Do this with the others again.

B) There are more places with events that can give you mystery gifts OR you have more than 4 gifts.
Simply do the above but use normal switches instead of selfswitches.

Hope it helps!
