Character shadows

Rayd12smitty said:

I have a few questions about how this works

1) For the comments, if an event has multiple pages, such as a random trainer, does the comment need to be on both pages?
2) If the answer to the previous question is no, then if I were to accidentally put it on both pages would the shadow "double up"?
3) If I wanted to add shadows to dependent events, would you know anything about that? Since they aren't standard events on a single map their location would change differently, and I'm not sure how this shadow script would work on them, if at all.


Thanks for sharing this awesome resource with us and ahead of time for answering my questions!

Why not go about doing it differently? Why not treat the events as sprites instead of events? Since they show up on screen, and since their sprites animate and position correctly, they have to have some data which tells the RGSS player to position them at certain screen coordinates. Track that instead of the event.

Alright that's a start. Don't suppose I could get any hints as to where I'd start looking for that? haha. If I do find something I'll share it here

I haven't really looked at it to be honest, but off the top of my head, I'd think to look around Sprite_Character first. That's the place the event sprites are manipulated in (if I'm not mistaken).

If I do happen to do some RMXP work in the near future, and find something of use, I'll let you know.

Ok so i edited the script with poor knowledge of Ruby, somehow it worked, the ledge and grass works but when running i get this:

Jump works nicely though:

Here is the script which i edited, (it is the very same, little change at the lines where i received syntax errors and i shifted whole shadow script to the bottom it avoided some of the syntax error and the line:

Code:

   @bitmap=Bitmap.new("Graphics/Pictures/Shadow @rsprite=sprite

Works fine for me, as far as I know the character sprite has to be 256x256
then you can adjust line 160, and 161

Code:

      @sprite.x=x+width-[COLOR="red"]48[/COLOR]
      @sprite.y=y+height-[COLOR="Red"]16[/COLOR]

So those numbers you highlighted are the coordinates for the shadow when user runs or walk or jump?

Saving Raven said:

Yeah, they aren't the numbers in the stock script though, I adjusted them to those, and it works fine for me, you just need to adjust the character sets you use, especially if you're using Fr/Lg style, as they are much smaller dimensions. If you align the character set to the shadow it'll work out nicely. Although that's what I do since there's a transition from gen 3 OW to gen 4 OW, you could adjust the shadow to your character set, whatever is easier for you.
EDIT
it works for me, probably because mine are adjusted to be 256x256
