Adding EFFECTMESSAGES from Gen 6 Project to clean Essentials

[Letrax]

The title stands for itself.
I tried to copy and paste it to KleinsBWKit but it wont work.
I would be very grateful if anybody can help me.

You need to do the following things:

1.) Paste this code in PokeBattle_Scene, underneath def pbDisplayConfirmMessage:

  def pbDisplayEffect(battler,hide=true)
    return if !EFFECTMESSAGES
    battleEffect = @battle.pbIsOpposing?(battler.index) ? @sprites["EffectFoe"] : @sprites["EffectPlayer"]
    if battleEffect==@sprites["EffectFoe"]
      battleEffect.x-=192
      battleEffect.visible=true
      battleEffect.zoom_y=0.5
      while battleEffect.x < 0
        battleEffect.x+=24
        battleEffect.zoom_y+=0.625 if battleEffect.zoom_y<=1.0
        battleEffect.update
        pbGraphicsUpdate
        pbFrameUpdate(nil)
      end
    elsif battleEffect==@sprites["EffectPlayer"]
      battleEffect.x+=192
      battleEffect.visible=true
      battleEffect.zoom_y=0.5
      while battleEffect.x > Graphics.width-192
        battleEffect.x-=24
        battleEffect.zoom_y+=0.625 if battleEffect.zoom_y<=1.0
        battleEffect.update
        pbGraphicsUpdate
        pbFrameUpdate(nil)
      end
    end  
    effect=PBAbilities.getName(battler.ability)
    textbitmap=BitmapSprite.new(Graphics.width,Graphics.height,@viewport)
    textbitmap.z = battleEffect.z+1
    textbitmap.bitmap.font.name=MessageConfig.pbGetSystemFontName()
    if battleEffect==@sprites["EffectFoe"]
      pbDrawOutlineText(textbitmap.bitmap,battleEffect.x+6,battleEffect.y-9,192,48,battler.name+"'s",Color.new(255,255,255,255),Color.new(150,150,150,150),0)
      pbDrawOutlineText(textbitmap.bitmap,battleEffect.x+6,battleEffect.y+9,192,48,effect,Color.new(255,255,255,255),Color.new(150,150,150,150),0)
    elsif battleEffect==@sprites["EffectPlayer"]
      pbDrawOutlineText(textbitmap.bitmap,battleEffect.x-6,battleEffect.y-9,192,48,battler.name+"'s",Color.new(255,255,255,255),Color.new(150,150,150,150),2)
      pbDrawOutlineText(textbitmap.bitmap,battleEffect.x-6,battleEffect.y+9,192,48,effect,Color.new(255,255,255,255),Color.new(150,150,150,150),2)
    end
    j= hide ? 60 : 15
    j.times do
      pbGraphicsUpdate
      pbFrameUpdate(nil)
    end
    @textbitmap=textbitmap
    pbHideEffect(battler) if hide
  end
  
  def pbHideEffect(battler)
    return if !(EFFECTMESSAGES)
    battleEffect = @battle.pbIsOpposing?(battler.index) ? @sprites["EffectFoe"] : @sprites["EffectPlayer"]
    if @textbitmap
      @textbitmap.bitmap.clear
      @textbitmap.bitmap.dispose
    end
    if battleEffect==@sprites["EffectFoe"]
      while battleEffect.x > -192
        battleEffect.x-=24
        battleEffect.zoom_y-=0.4 if battleEffect.zoom_y>0.2
        battleEffect.update
        pbGraphicsUpdate
        pbFrameUpdate(nil)
      end
    elsif battleEffect==@sprites["EffectPlayer"]
      while battleEffect.x < Graphics.width
        battleEffect.x+=24
        battleEffect.zoom_y-=0.4 if battleEffect.zoom_y>0.2
        battleEffect.update
        pbGraphicsUpdate
        pbFrameUpdate(nil)
      end
    end
    battleEffect.zoom_y=1.0
    battleEffect.visible=false
  end

2.) Paste this code in PokeBattle_Battle, underneath def pbCommonAnimation:

  def pbDisplayEffect(battler,hide=true)
    @scene.pbDisplayEffect(battler,hide)
  end

3.) Use this code whenever you want to display a battler's effect:

@battle.pbDisplayEffect(battler)

Sometimes, the word "battler" might be replaced by any of the following:
- attacker
- opponent
- user
- target
- attacker.pbPartner
- opponent.pbPartner
- user.pbPartner
- target.pbPartner

Be mindful of the context. Also note that if you're using this in the script section PokeBattle_Battle, you use

self.pbDisplayEffect(battler)

instead.

Hmm thanks ^^
But the abilitymessage.png doesnt show up and I cant see the script
calling the picture "abilitymessages.png."

And if I want it to work for the ability "Pressure" do I have to do it like this?:

# Pressure message
if self.hasWorkingAbility(:PRESSURE) && onactive
@battle.pbDisplayEffect(battler)
end

 # Pressure message
    if self.hasWorkingAbility(:PRESSURE) && onactive
      @battle.pbDisplayEffect(self)
      @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("{1} is exerting its Pressure!",self.pbThis))
    end

Yes, that's how you do it.

Also, I attached what should be in abilitymessages.png

But for some reason I cant get it to work:

Also how should this picture show up when it isnt called? oO
That was my question.

 

[Rot8er_ConeX]

I edited your code above. self, not battler.

 

[Letrax]

Yeah I tried both and I still get this error.

Well I give up.
Dont know why this isnt working
Thought it would be easy but im an idiot
