5 Party Members

[ken Murikumo]

well... i searched the forum and found a few menu scripts, but i don't need a new menu system, because i made my own... i can get 5 people in my party, but the fifth person doesn't show up in the menu or in battle. They can be activated and used, but they are show off screen and you can't see them

Normally, the system is set for 4 actors tops.

That meant that for a menu displaying the actors (top down fashion in a 480 pixel high screen), you'd have windows no taller than 120 pixels in height. In your case, you'd want them to be 96 pixels tall.

And for a battlestatus window displaying the battlers (left-right fashion in a 640 pixel wide screen), you'd have windows no wider than 160 pixels in height. In your case, you'd want them to be 128 pixels wide.

You need to adjust the Window_MenuStatus, the Window_Target (mostly the refresh def), and Window_BattleStatus (hint: actor_x = i * 160 + 4) plus a few more odds and ends.

You may want to edit Window_Savefile to reflect 5 members in your party as well...

Well i fixed everything, but now i can't get the battle menus fixed. The ones where they pop up telling you "attack, magic, etc" The fifth char's is off screen...
