HOw to build my own RPG.Cache modules

[kaB00M]

I want to create a separate folder for 'special bitmaps' which I dont want to put in my 'pictures' folder. How can I make a different folder and access bitmaps from it??

thank you.

You can do it like this: (Paste in its own section anywhere above main)
[rgss]module RPG
  module Cache
    def self.special_bitmap(filename)
      self.load_bitmap("Graphics/SpecialBitmaps/", filename)
    end
  end
end
[/rgss]

I am not sure how touchy spaces are in path names so I removed it.
Just put your special bitmaps in a SpecialBitmaps folder in the Graphics folder.
Use RPG::Cache.special_bitmap(filename) to access the bitmaps in the folder.

Man, I love you (no homo). THANKS A LOT.

By the way:
1. why does IT uses two modules, one inside the other?
2. What other files can I open like this (besides bitmaps?)


Thank you very much

1) Just an organization setup. This is the same:

module RPG::Cache

  def self.special_bitmap(filename)

    self.load_bitmap("Graphics/SpecialBitmaps/", filename)

  end

end

2) Pretty much anything you want. It all depends on what type of file it is and how you saved it.
