A tutorial on Putting Facesets in games!

A tutorial on Putting Facesets in RMXP!

This is a tutorial origionally written by someone but changed around a little. I missed facesets in RMXP, so I found a code muddled with it and dada. Facesets.


Firstly go to Tools-Script Editor.
Example




Once in script editor scroll down the left hand sroll bar and click on Message. Delete all the text there and replace it with this:

#==============================================================================
# ■ Main
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 各クラスの定義が終わった後、ここから実際の処理が始まります。
#==============================================================================

begin

# This variable determines the default font type
$defaultfonttype = "Tahoma"
# This variable determines the default font size
$defaultfontsize = 22

# トランジション準備
Graphics.freeze
# シーンオブジェクト (タイトル画面) を作成
$scene = Scene_Title.new
# $scene が有効な限り main メソッドを呼び出す
while $scene != nil
$scene.main
end
# フェードアウト
Graphics.transition(20)
rescue Errno::ENOENT
# 例外 Errno::ENOENT を補足
# ファイルがオープンできなかった場合、メッセージを表示して終了する
filename = $!.message.sub("No such file or directory - ", "")
print("File #{filename} not found.")
end
#Are we showing a face this time?
$face_showing = nil

Example




Now scroll back up and go to Window_Message. Now delete whatever was there and replace it with:

#==================================
# Window_Message
#-------------------------------
# The message window.
#==================================
class Window_Message < Window_Selectable
attr_accessor :autoclosetime
attr_accessor :op
#-------------------------------
# Object Initialization

Example




Now to create an event. For people who don't know how go to the below image. Now click on call script which is on the last page. Input this:

$face_showing = "IMAGE NAME"

Here's an example of what the event box will look like:
Example



NOTE: $face_showing = "IMAGE NAME"
where it says IMAGE NAME you have to replace it with the image name. Also make sure the image is in the pictures folder. If you need any help please post.

Does that count as one of your (40?) pictures?
