General Game Dev Help and Requests

[Peekimon]

Thanks, Esai, for your help. I found the code and I'll show it here to help others with the same problem:
To fix the "Enter Hero Name" Problem:
Replace the actual Window_NameInput with:

#==============================================================================
# ■ Window_NameInput
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  名前入力画面で、文字を選択するウィンドウです。

I did not create this code. Someone on RMXP.net did!
It worked! I tried it!

you are the greatest :D :D
how do i change text colour? in rmxp

 

[FireFox]

I created this post in a seperate thread and was told to post here so here goes...

I'm creating my own RPG based on the legend of zelda, and i was wondering if someone could do me some sprites of Link, Zelda and Vaati (all from the Zelda: Minish Cap game). I'm using RM2K. Thanks for your help in advance.

[jasonresno]

Another question, I've been getting used to the system pretty nicely. The next thing I wanted to do was place an NPC for the character to talk to. Any ideas?

Tutorial by me

Tutorial Name Pokemon IDentifyer
description-Used to Identify whitch Pokemon is in whitch slot and who is sent Out first in da battle if theres 2 the second to da top will be sent out to oh and by the way this will also work for a pokedex.


Variables needed
Pokemon
Pokemon party
Pokemon slot1
Pokemon slot 2
Pokemon slot 3
Pokemon slot 4
Pokemon slot 5

now go to ur commen events and name 1 of them Pokemon identifyer
now go in ur variable management click the one called Pokemon and inside da management find the one that lets u choose another variable and pick pokemon party
Now do the same thing but for slots1,2,3,4,5
Now the rest is just plain and simple
First how many pokemon are in ur game 2 whos the first Pokemon hmm you figure it out.
now make a comment and put Pokemon slot 1
Now make a fork with the variable pokemon -NO ELS CASE
now inside it make another fork with the variable Pokemon slot1
and have an els case.
Now inside slot 1 your going to need to make 3 hundred some forks for EACH slot and there in da els cases so no worries

Should look like this if you don't get it noobs

Fork-Variable Pokemon
Fork varaible Pokemon slot 1
Fork varaible Pokemon slot 1 equel 1
Show or a message saying Go..Pokemons name
els
case Repeate as many times as nessasary.

Now this could work for Pokedex,Pokemon Menu(not da cms)
Oh well hope this helps.

Thanks loads Avatar. Those are great :)

 

[Silver Pearl]

can someone make or find pikmin charsets please or did i ask that already?

 

[jasonresno]

Another question, I've been getting used to the system pretty nicely. The next thing I wanted to do was place an NPC for the character to talk to. Any ideas?

Any answers? Is this possible?

 

[Sorye HK]

Right click on the tile that you want the NPC to show. Click on make event and the event box should appear. Then double click on the charset, change it to your suiting, go to commands, message, then input the message that you want that NPC to say.
Remember to have that event on "action key" so that the message appears properly.

 

[Rm2k3Guy]

how do i change text colour? in rmxp

Please help me . . .

 

[Sorye HK]

I don't remember properly but I think it was c[x] with x being a number between 1 and 7.

 

[Esai]

yea but to change the colours made by them involves modifying the ruby again >.< i did it before but that game got deleted >.< yea well I'm looking for it ^_^

Okay its in Window_Base, look for

def text_color
case n
when 0
return Color.new(255, 255, 255, 255)
when 1
return Color.new(128, 128, 255, 255)
when 2
return Color.new(255, 128, 128, 255)
when 3
return Color.new(128, 255, 128, 255)
when 4
return Color.new(128, 255, 255, 255)
when 5
return Color.new(255, 128, 255, 255)
when 6
return Color.new(255, 255, 128, 255)
when 7
return Color.new(192, 192, 192, 255)
else
normal_color
end
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ● 通常文字色の取得
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def normal_color
return Color.new(255, 255, 255, 255)
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ● 無効文字色の取得
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def disabled_color
return Color.new(255, 255, 255, 128)
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ● システム文字色の取得
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def system_color
return Color.new(192, 224, 255, 255)
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ● ピンチ文字色の取得
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def crisis_color
return Color.new(255, 255, 64, 255)
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ● 戦闘不能文字色の取得
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def knockout_color
return Color.new(255, 64, 0)
end

to change the normal color its "def normal_color" and change the colours in (Red, Green, Blue, Opacity) format. I think... And when 0-7 is the colours using as daegon said \c[x].

Hope that helps all problems!

Edit forgot to add:

(0, 0, 0, 255) is black and (255, 255, 255), 255 is white ^_^

 

[freakboy]

if you change

when 0
return Color.new(255, 255, 255, 255)

for

when 0
return Color.new(96, 96, 96, 255)

you'll have the original black pokemon color in rmxp :D

you can also change it in def color, that's the main color in the title screen.

  def normal_color
    return Color.new(96, 96, 96, 255)
  end

in the attachment is a window skin
that could be easy for the black font.

 

[RM2K3kid]

Personally if I want other colours I add them not edit.

 

[Jeff_PKLight]

Freakboy, thanks. It wasn't quite what I wanted, but oh well. I'll just change bits of it.

EDIT: How do you make it so the white message box background isn't translucent or transparent? I went to the resource manager and made the blues transparent and translucent but it just makes the white message box translucent.... I think it's with the script. Any ideas what is going wrong?

 

[jasonresno]

Right click on the tile that you want the NPC to show. Click on make event and the event box should appear. Then double click on the charset, change it to your suiting, go to commands, message, then input the message that you want that NPC to say.

overwrite the original def reset_window with this one
at line 170 - 189

  def reset_window
    if $game_temp.in_battle
      self.y = 16
    else
      case $game_system.message_position
      when 0  # 上
        self.y = 16
      when 1  # 中
        self.y = 160
      when 2  # 下
        self.y = 304
      end
    end
    if $game_system.message_frame == 0
      self.opacity = 255
    else
      self.opacity = 255
    end
    self.back_opacity = 255
  end

and for the color...
this is for disabled color (grey/black)

def disabled_color
return Color.new(96, 96, 96, 96)
end

 

[Jeff_PKLight]

I got the first part, Virtual....but, where do I place the second part of the script? Thanks in advance!

 

[KARR]

I think this has been asked before... :
1. How do I change the font? The e accent aigue displays as a accented N.
2. The whole player's health and whatnot thing. How do I get rid of that?
3. Does anyone have the charsets of the members of TR from FRLG? I would like them... please!

Please!
