How do I install a cbs into my game?

[Arcturus]

This is probably a stupid question. I'm not even sure this belongs here. I downloaded Cybersam's cbs onto my computer, but I don't know how to get it on to my game. Any help would be appreciated.

Just copy paste the script???

Its like the other scripts.

Well, the file is an .exe file extension. So when I click open, it asks me where I want to install it. When I choose my game, I only can choose audio, data, or graphics. And even if I had the script in text format, where would I paste it? It's not like I'm very experienced in this field or anything.

What you've downloaded is the script demo. It's a RMXP game with the script installed. You have to install this game somewhere, open it with Rpg Maker, copy the script and then open your game and paste the script.

Oh, ok that makes sense. I'm going to try that right now. Thanks a lot for your help.

I just have one more question, hopefully. When I open the script editor, under what category is the battle system script?

It's better to create a new empty one before Main and below the other scripts.

Ok, thanks to you, I got it to work. But I now have another problem. When I set up an enemy to battle in playtest, it says Unable to find file Graphics/Battlers/Ghost. What does this mean?

It means you are using a CBS which uses the Enemies name instead of the enemies characterset. The error is telling you it cannot find the Ghost file in the Battler folder. So with that CBS you need a battler in your battler folder that is named according to the enemies name.
So basically, you need a battler file that is named the same as the enemy(ies) that you have in the database. Then just simply import their Battlers into the game.

So if you have an enemy named Ghost, put a Battler image in your Projects Battler folder named Ghost for it to appear.

In the Graphics/Battlers folder, I have an enemy named Undead01. In the enemy folder, I have an enemy named Undead01. It still doesn't work. I'm confused.

It has to be named the same as the name in the database.

For an Example, if Monster 1 is name Ghost then the filename for the Battler has to be named Ghost.

 

[Arcturus]

I have both the battler graphic and the enemy graphic names the same, and it still doesn't work.

What CBS are you trying to use? Here is a screenshot of what I am trying to say: Some CBSs do not use the Filename but instead use the Enemy Name:

Cybersam's side view battle system. It's version 2.5 I think. I downloaded it off this website. I can't see the picture because my computer doesn't allow Photobucket or Imageshack.
