Face graphics instead of characters - Load/Save

[djilluzionist]

Hi guys. I'm looking for a Simple (well, atleast i would think simple) VX script.

When you save your game, and go to load it. It shows your characters sprite, right? Well, i am looking for a script that will show face graphics instead of sprites. It's not extremley Vital, but it is something i would like to have in my game.

Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

You don't need a seperate script for this. You can change something in the default scripts that allows this...can't remember where it was, though.

Yeah, i was guessing it was something with

    characters = []
    for actor in $game_party.members
      characters.push([actor.character_name, actor.character_index])
    end
    $game_system.save_count += 1
    $game_system.version_id = $data_system.version_id
    @last_bgm = RPG::BGM::last
    @last_bgs = RPG::BGS::last
    Marshal.dump(characters,          file)
    Marshal.dump(Graphics.frame_count, file)

    $game_map            = Marshal.load(file)
    $game_player        = Marshal.load(file)
    if $game_system.version_id != $data_system.version_id
      $game_map.setup($game_map.map_id)
      $game_player.center($game_player.x, $game_player.y)
    end
  end
end

But i'm no scripter so yeah.

 

[Kylebot2000]

No, I don't believe that's it. Also, you don't need to be a scripter to make small changes.

 

[djilluzionist]

No, but you need to know what you have to change in order to change it. Anyways, thanks for your help and umm.. Enthusiasm.. But, i would just rather a script or someone to tell me what to change

Changing it to facesets properly is actually surprisingly hard due to the nature of several things, the most obvious one being that the windows are just too small to fit the faces (due to the fact that the bitmap is 32 pixels smaller in height and width than the actual window)
