Changing Sprites with a Script

[ChopSuey!]

How do you change a hero's sprite with a script?

You can do that very easily with the event commands.

Just open up the "event" and on tab 3, there's a button to change the hero walking graphic and battler

@lunarea -- He specifically asked how to do it with a script

<actor>.set_graphic(character, character hue, battler, battler hue)

where actor is a Game_Actor (the hero's sprite is the first party member, $game_party.actors[0])
character is the name of the character_set you want
character hue is the hue displacement (0-360)
battler is the name of the battler graphic you want
battler hue is the hue displacement (0-360)
