Compatibility: Rataime_Visual and Law's Custom Save System

StudioBlue · Jun 13, 2010

Okay, I generally try for a couple of days to fix problems (including surfing boards for solutions) before I ask for help, but I cannot seem to find a solution to this problem either on my own, or with another's help. I am using Rataime_Visual (Shadows, Sun, Reflections, Mirrors, and Destruction Engine), along with Law's Custom Save System. Everything works fine when I play a New Game, do any of the visual effects, and even when I save a game. The moment I go to load a game, I get this error:

Script 'Sprite Shadow' line 304: NoMethodError occurred.

undefined method 'shadows' for nil:NilClass

If I remove the 'Sprite Shadow' Script, I get the same error for Sun, but with Line 239. If I remove Sun, it will work, but I effectively cannot have shadows in my game. It all points to the same 'line':

if character.is_a?(Game_Event) and $game_temp.shadow_spriteset.shadows != [] for Shadows

if character.is_a?(Game_Event) and $game_temp.sun_spriteset.sun != [] for Sun

I'm not a n00b with RGSS, but I'm no expert. I suspect that it's the way that the Custom Save System handles the sprites it imports into the 'screenshot'. I don't know how to fix this problem. Any help, even just pointing in the right direction, would be appreciated.

Here is Law's Save System, just in case:

Following the rule and bumping after 72 hours. I'm still unable to solve this one on my own and it's a little on the frustrating side. Any help from anyone, even if it's just pointing me in a direction May not have looked at previously, would be great. Thanks!

*points you in the right direction.*

Before ANYONE can help you, you need to post BOTH scripts in here, not just one. Nobody's willing to go completely out of their way to help you by frantically searching the web for the missing script. Once you have done that, then I'll look at it.

# ** Sprite Shadow (Sprite_Ombre )

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#    Based on Genzai Kawakami's shadows

#    dynamisme & features by Rataime

#    extra features Boushy

#    New Edits by DerVVulfman

#    February 24, 2008

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# 

# Introduction:

#

#  This system allows you and all 'prepared' events to generate shadows while

#  on the field map.   The player can move around  a 'light source' event and

#  display a shadow.   Likewise,  events with a special comment  within their

#  event list can also generate shadows.

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Instructions:

#

#  -- The Light Source

#     To create a light source, you need to create a map event that is to be

#     used 'as' the light source.   Most of the time,  these could be events

#     that sport 'torch' or 'lantern' charactersets.  Just examples :)

#

#     To make one of these events a light source,  you need  to insert a few

#     things into that event's  "List of Event Commands".   These things are

#     nothing more than comments.  

#

#     The first comment to add is "begin Shadow Source" (without quotes). It

#     informs the system  that this event is a light source.   The remaining

#     three values are optional and have default values in the configuration

#     section  (only just added  into the script).   They too  are added  as

#     comments.

#

#     anglemin 'number'     --- Starting position of a lightsource's arc.

#     anglemax 'number'     --- Ending position of a lightsource's arc.

#     distancemax 'number'  --- How far away from the 'source' you can go

#     self_opacity 'number' --- How dark the shadow will grow.

#

#     After that, your characters can now move about and generate shadows.

#

#  -- Other Events

#     Events do not know that they can generate shadows.   To let them gene-

#     rate a shadow,  all you need to do is add a special comment into their

#     "List of Event Commands".   This comment needed  is merely  the phrase

#     'begin Shadow' (again, without quotes).

#

#

#  -- Blocking Shadows

#     To prevent shadows  from passing through  solid objects such as doors, 

#     walls, cabinets or other forms of furniture,  you will want to apply a

#     priority flag of '1' or higher on these items.  Normally, walls in the

#     default database do not have a priority flag as they merely block  the

#     player from passing through.

#     

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Revisions to note:

#

#  1) Added formatted headers and comments throughout the script.

#  2) Encapsulated a comment/parameter code in an XPML module.

#  3) Set the shadow array into an instance value to lower resource costs.

#  4) Compatability with Near Fantastica's Squad Movement systems.

#  5) Compatability with Ccoa's Caterpillar system.

#  6) Compatability with Trickster's Caterpillar system.

#  7) Added default shadow settings into the configuration section.

    SHADOW_OPACITY              = 150     # Darkness level of shadow

    SHADOW_DISTANCE             = 350     # Maximum range in pixels

 

    # * SHADOW ARC:  Set in degrees,  this controls whether a light source

    #                can 'force' shadows in certain directions.  Useful if

    #                a light source is hanging on a wall so it cannot make

    #                a shadow THROUGH a wall.

    #

    #                It may take some practice  to set  the desired angles

    #                as it recognizes 90°  being the  top most part  of an

    #                arc,  180° being the leftmost side and so on...  pro-

    #                ceeding in a counter-clockwise motion.

# ** Sprite Sun

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#    Based on Sprite Shadow

#    modified by Rataime

#    New Edits by DerVVulfman

#    February 12, 2008

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# 

# Introduction:

#

#  This system allows you and all 'prepared' events to generate shadows while

#  on the field map. The player can move around while a programmed 'sun' will

#  display a shadow.   Likewise,  events with a special comment  within their

#  event list can also generate shadows.

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Instructions:

#

#  -- The Sun

#     To create a sun effect, you'll need to create a map event that's to be

#     used 'as' the sun itself.   Under most circumstances,  this will be an

#     event without a characterset graphic. You don't want to 'SEE' the sun,

#     do you?

#

#     To make one of these events a 'sun,  you'll need to insert a couple of

#     things into that event's  "List of Event Commands".   These things are

#     nothing more than comments.  

#

#     The first comment  to add is "begin Sun" (without quotes).  It informs

#     the system that this map  has a sun effect in use.   The remaining two

#     values  are optional  and have  default values  in  the  configuration

#     section  (only just added  into the script).   They too  are added  as

#     comments.

#

#     self_angle  'number'  --- How much of an angle each shadow will have.

#     self_opacity 'number' --- How dark the shadow will be.

#

#     After that, your characters can now move about and generate shadows.

#

#  -- Other Events

#     Events do not know that they can generate shadows.   To let them gene-

#     rate a shadow,  all you need to do is add a special comment into their

#     "List of Event Commands".   This comment needed  is merely  the phrase

#     'begin Shadow' (again, without quotes).

#

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Revisions to note:

#

#  1) Added formatted headers and comments throughout the script.

#  2) Encapsulated a comment/parameter code in an XPML module.

#  3) Set the sun shadow array into an instance value to lower resource costs.

#  4) Compatability with Near Fantastica's Squad Movement systems.

#  5) Compatability with Ccoa's Caterpillar system.

#  6) Compatability with Trickster's Caterpillar system.

#  7) Added default shadow settings into the configuration section.

#==============================================================================

# ** Sprite Shadow (Sprite_Ombre )

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#    Based on Genzai Kawakami's shadows

#    dynamisme & features by Rataime

#    extra features Boushy

#    New Edits by DerVVulfman

#    February 24, 2008

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Introduction:

#

#  This system allows you and all 'prepared' events to generate shadows while

#  on the field map.   The player can move around  a 'light source' event and

#  display a shadow.   Likewise,  events with a special comment  within their

#  event list can also generate shadows.

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Instructions:

#

#  -- The Light Source

#     To create a light source, you need to create a map event that is to be

#     used 'as' the light source.   Most of the time,  these could be events

#     that sport 'torch' or 'lantern' charactersets.  Just examples :)

#

#     To make one of these events a light source,  you need  to insert a few

#     things into that event's  "List of Event Commands".   These things are

#     nothing more than comments.  

#

#     The first comment to add is "begin Shadow Source" (without quotes). It

#     informs the system  that this event is a light source.   The remaining

#     three values are optional and have default values in the configuration

#     section  (only just added  into the script).   They too  are added  as

#     comments.

#

#     anglemin 'number'     --- Starting position of a lightsource's arc.

#     anglemax 'number'     --- Ending position of a lightsource's arc.

#     distancemax 'number'  --- How far away from the 'source' you can go

#     self_opacity 'number' --- How dark the shadow will grow.

#

#     After that, your characters can now move about and generate shadows.

#

#  -- Other Events

#     Events do not know that they can generate shadows.   To let them gene-

#     rate a shadow,  all you need to do is add a special comment into their

#     "List of Event Commands".   This comment needed  is merely  the phrase

#     'begin Shadow' (again, without quotes).

#

#

#  -- Blocking Shadows

#     To prevent shadows  from passing through  solid objects such as doors,

#     walls, cabinets or other forms of furniture,  you will want to apply a

#     priority flag of '1' or higher on these items.  Normally, walls in the

#     default database do not have a priority flag as they merely block  the

#     player from passing through.

#    

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Revisions to note:

#

#  1) Added formatted headers and comments throughout the script.

#  2) Encapsulated a comment/parameter code in an XPML module.

#  3) Set the shadow array into an instance value to lower resource costs.

#  4) Compatability with Near Fantastica's Squad Movement systems.

#  5) Compatability with Ccoa's Caterpillar system.

#  6) Compatability with Trickster's Caterpillar system.

#  7) Added default shadow settings into the configuration section.

    SHADOW_DISTANCE             = 350     # Maximum range in pixels

 

    # * SHADOW ARC:  Set in degrees,  this controls whether a light source

    #                can 'force' shadows in certain directions.  Useful if

    #                a light source is hanging on a wall so it cannot make

    #                a shadow THROUGH a wall.

    #

    #                It may take some practice  to set  the desired angles

    #                as it recognizes 90°  being the  top most part  of an

    #                arc,  180° being the leftmost side and so on...  pro-

    #                ceeding in a counter-clockwise motion.

same thing with the shadow. it was conflicting with Game Temp or something. I actually didn't see a sun, but I got no more conflicts after that, Does this work for you?

Unfortunately, same error as before, only this time the line number is different. Here are the two scripts as I have them, after your modification:

Code:

#==============================================================================

# ** Sprite Shadow (Sprite_Ombre )

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#    Based on Genzai Kawakami's shadows

#    dynamisme & features by Rataime

#    extra features Boushy

#    New Edits by DerVVulfman

#    February 24, 2008

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Introduction:

#

#  This system allows you and all 'prepared' events to generate shadows while

#  on the field map.   The player can move around  a 'light source' event and

#  display a shadow.   Likewise,  events with a special comment  within their

#  event list can also generate shadows.

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Instructions:

#

#  -- The Light Source

#     To create a light source, you need to create a map event that is to be

#     used 'as' the light source.   Most of the time,  these could be events

#     that sport 'torch' or 'lantern' charactersets.  Just examples :)

#

#     To make one of these events a light source,  you need  to insert a few

#     things into that event's  "List of Event Commands".   These things are

#     nothing more than comments.  

#

#     The first comment to add is "begin Shadow Source" (without quotes). It

#     informs the system  that this event is a light source.   The remaining

#     three values are optional and have default values in the configuration

#     section  (only just added  into the script).   They too  are added  as

#     comments.

#

#     anglemin 'number'     --- Starting position of a lightsource's arc.

#     anglemax 'number'     --- Ending position of a lightsource's arc.

#     distancemax 'number'  --- How far away from the 'source' you can go

#     self_opacity 'number' --- How dark the shadow will grow.

#

#     After that, your characters can now move about and generate shadows.

#

#  -- Other Events

#     Events do not know that they can generate shadows.   To let them gene-

#     rate a shadow,  all you need to do is add a special comment into their

#     "List of Event Commands".   This comment needed  is merely  the phrase

#     'begin Shadow' (again, without quotes).

#

#

#  -- Blocking Shadows

#     To prevent shadows  from passing through  solid objects such as doors,

#     walls, cabinets or other forms of furniture,  you will want to apply a

#     priority flag of '1' or higher on these items.  Normally, walls in the

#     default database do not have a priority flag as they merely block  the

#     player from passing through.

#    

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Revisions to note:

#

#  1) Added formatted headers and comments throughout the script.

#  2) Encapsulated a comment/parameter code in an XPML module.

#  3) Set the shadow array into an instance value to lower resource costs.

#  4) Compatability with Near Fantastica's Squad Movement systems.

#  5) Compatability with Ccoa's Caterpillar system.

#  6) Compatability with Trickster's Caterpillar system.

#  7) Added default shadow settings into the configuration section.

    # * SHADOW ARC:  Set in degrees,  this controls whether a light source

    #                a light source is hanging on a wall so it cannot make

    #                a shadow THROUGH a wall.

    #                It may take some practice  to set  the desired angles

    #                as it recognizes 90°  being the  top most part  of an

    #                arc,  180° being the leftmost side and so on...  pro-

    #                ceeding in a counter-clockwise motion.

# ** Sprite Sun

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#    Based on Sprite Shadow

#    modified by Rataime

#    New Edits by DerVVulfman

#    February 12, 2008

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Introduction:

#

#  This system allows you and all 'prepared' events to generate shadows while

#  on the field map. The player can move around while a programmed 'sun' will

#  display a shadow.   Likewise,  events with a special comment  within their

#  event list can also generate shadows.

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Instructions:

#

#  -- The Sun

#     To create a sun effect, you'll need to create a map event that's to be

#     used 'as' the sun itself.   Under most circumstances,  this will be an

#     event without a characterset graphic. You don't want to 'SEE' the sun,

#     do you?

#

#     To make one of these events a 'sun,  you'll need to insert a couple of

#     things into that event's  "List of Event Commands".   These things are

#     nothing more than comments.  

#

#     The first comment  to add is "begin Sun" (without quotes).  It informs

#     the system that this map  has a sun effect in use.   The remaining two

#     values  are optional  and have  default values  in  the  configuration

#     section  (only just added  into the script).   They too  are added  as

#     comments.

#

#     self_angle  'number'  --- How much of an angle each shadow will have.

#     self_opacity 'number' --- How dark the shadow will be.

#

#     After that, your characters can now move about and generate shadows.

#

#  -- Other Events

#     Events do not know that they can generate shadows.   To let them gene-

#     rate a shadow,  all you need to do is add a special comment into their

#     "List of Event Commands".   This comment needed  is merely  the phrase

#     'begin Shadow' (again, without quotes).

#

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Revisions to note:

#

#  1) Added formatted headers and comments throughout the script.

#  2) Encapsulated a comment/parameter code in an XPML module.

#  3) Set the sun shadow array into an instance value to lower resource costs.

#  4) Compatability with Near Fantastica's Squad Movement systems.

#  5) Compatability with Ccoa's Caterpillar system.

#  6) Compatability with Trickster's Caterpillar system.

#  7) Added default shadow settings into the configuration section.

These are the two lines that keep glitching. First from Sprite Sun:

Code:

And then from Sprite Shadow:

Code:

304.    if character.is_a?(Game_Event) and $game_temp.shadow_spriteset.shadows != []

Those two lines seem to be what is messing everything up. I agree that somehow the save menu is conflicting with the game_temp, but I can't figure out how. Also, I have noticed that if I go to the save menu to save, the save menu's 'map' shows up just fine. So I'm totally lost as to what to do.

# ** Sprite Shadow (Sprite_Ombre )

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#    Based on Genzai Kawakami's shadows

#    dynamisme & features by Rataime

#    extra features Boushy

#    New Edits by DerVVulfman

#    February 24, 2008

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Introduction:

#

#  This system allows you and all 'prepared' events to generate shadows while

#  on the field map.   The player can move around  a 'light source' event and

#  display a shadow.   Likewise,  events with a special comment  within their

#  event list can also generate shadows.

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Instructions:

#

#  -- The Light Source

#     To create a light source, you need to create a map event that is to be

#     used 'as' the light source.   Most of the time,  these could be events

#     that sport 'torch' or 'lantern' charactersets.  Just examples :)

#

#     To make one of these events a light source,  you need  to insert a few

#     things into that event's  "List of Event Commands".   These things are

#     nothing more than comments.  

#

#     The first comment to add is "begin Shadow Source" (without quotes). It

#     informs the system  that this event is a light source.   The remaining

#     three values are optional and have default values in the configuration

#     section  (only just added  into the script).   They too  are added  as

#     comments.

#

#     anglemin 'number'     --- Starting position of a lightsource's arc.

#     anglemax 'number'     --- Ending position of a lightsource's arc.

#     distancemax 'number'  --- How far away from the 'source' you can go

#     self_opacity 'number' --- How dark the shadow will grow.

#

#     After that, your characters can now move about and generate shadows.

#

#  -- Other Events

#     Events do not know that they can generate shadows.   To let them gene-

#     rate a shadow,  all you need to do is add a special comment into their

#     "List of Event Commands".   This comment needed  is merely  the phrase

#     'begin Shadow' (again, without quotes).

#

#

#  -- Blocking Shadows

#     To prevent shadows  from passing through  solid objects such as doors,

#     walls, cabinets or other forms of furniture,  you will want to apply a

#     priority flag of '1' or higher on these items.  Normally, walls in the

#     default database do not have a priority flag as they merely block  the

#     player from passing through.

#    

#

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Revisions to note:

#

#  1) Added formatted headers and comments throughout the script.

#  2) Encapsulated a comment/parameter code in an XPML module.

#  3) Set the shadow array into an instance value to lower resource costs.

#  4) Compatability with Near Fantastica's Squad Movement systems.

#  5) Compatability with Ccoa's Caterpillar system.

#  6) Compatability with Trickster's Caterpillar system.

#  7) Added default shadow settings into the configuration section.

    SHADOW_DISTANCE             = 350     # Maximum range in pixels

 

    # * SHADOW ARC:  Set in degrees,  this controls whether a light source

    #                can 'force' shadows in certain directions.  Useful if

    #                a light source is hanging on a wall so it cannot make

    #                a shadow THROUGH a wall.

    #

    #                It may take some practice  to set  the desired angles

    #                as it recognizes 90°  being the  top most part  of an

    #                arc,  180° being the leftmost side and so on...  pro-

    #                ceeding in a counter-clockwise motion.

I'd think the most straightforward solution would be to move :shadow_spriteset to something other than Game_Temp, like Game_System. That would deal with it not existing on load, and would even allow saving whatever data it stores.

Right, but also it not being accessed during Scene's that are the map was just the easiest solution for me at the time. Both ways work. One just seemed easier than the other

@Star
The latest fix you offered does not fix the problem. In fact, it makes it so that I cannot start a New Game (somehow, it now clashes with my Particle System). When I go to continue, however, it gives me the same errors as before.

@BwdYeti
I do know exactly HOW to do this, but to try it, I went and changed all instances of Game_Temp and $game_temp to Game_System and $game_system. It still failed on Continue with the same error, and gave another error entirely when attempting to start a New Game.

@To Both
I apologize for the delay in replying, but I've had out of town company. I am thankful for both of you attempting to help me.

Bump. Any ideas, anyone? If not, I will (sadly) be forced to change my save screen, which will kinda blow. :-/

StudioBlue · Jul 24, 2010

Hey guys. I've had time to think about it and I'm going to scrap using the full version of this script. Instead, I'm going to try and modify it to show, in lieu of the 'screenshot', an image of the 'world' that the characters are on.

I'll open a new topic in a few days if I'm stuck on this.

Thanks for all ya'lls help!

Im not very good at RGSS, but I had the exact same problem, as I use the same scripts. It may be a simple case of order... try rearranging the scripts, reversing their position, etc. If that doesn't work, I think you should post a demo so we can see how the scripts are truly interacting with one another, and could know whether our corrections will work.

Well, after a few hours of tinkering, I've gone ahead and replaced the screenshot with a png of what world the player is on. I figure it out, and thankfully it was relatively simple.

Since I'm not going the original route, this post can be closed.

Thanks to Star and BwdYeti for their support!
