Damage count doesn't show[RESOLVED]
- Thread starter omerpaz
- Start date
No idea why you said "when I start a battle", as you'Re not supposed to have anything shown upon battle start, however if you don't get any damage numbers in general without modifying your project, that sounds like a font problem. RMXP uses MS Gothic by default, I think, so you might wanna check for that. In general, any font operating you did in the recent past might have something to do with it.

Awesome Bro
The font for the damage and the main game font aren't the same, though. If the only thing that isn't displaying are the numbers, then BlueScope is probably right.

Damage is displayed in Sprite_Battler (line 110)
The damage method is defined in RPG::Sprite (in the help doc)
Notice the line: bitmap.font.name = "Arial Black"
Damage is determined in Game_Battler 3
P.S. The default font for everything else is "Arial" (even though the doc says "The default is "MS PGothic".")

Um, it might be something i'm doing wrong, but I checked line 110 in Sprite_Battler and what is written there is: damage(@battler.damage, @battler.critical)
and I can't seem to find bitmap.font.name = "Arial Black" anywhere in this script or in Game_Battler 3. Sorry for the noob questions, I have no idea about the scripts in RM.

The line bitmap.font.name = "Arial Black" is not in the scripts. It's buried in the damage method (that gets called from Sprite_Battler).
If you want to see it, you have to look in the help doc under RPG::Sprite
If you want to change it, copy the script from the help doc into a new script above main, and edit that line.
the value of damage gets set in Game_Battler 3. (in a bunch of places, depending on how the damage occurs & the results of the random calls).
As Blue mentioned, usually when text doesn't show up in a game, it's because the font hasn't been installed on your computer.
Although I have a hard time believing that "Arial Black" is missing from your PC. Unless you specifically removed it.
Can you use the "Arial Black" font in MS Word (or any other text editor)?
