Script not working?

Hi. I have a custom 'name input' script.

This is the code:

    @input.z = 999999

    # トランジション実行

    Graphics.transition

    # メインループ

    loop do

      # ゲーム画面を更新

It works fine on the pokemon started kit on which I found it. Yet when I put it into my game I get the following error:

Script 'Name Input' line 143: NoMethodError occured.

undefined method 'getkey' for Input:Module

Any ideas?

Thanks

 

[LegacyCrono]

You'll need to copy the Input module from the Pokemon SDK.
That module has this specific method, getkey, that isn't found at the standard RGSS Input module. It's probably for using the whole keyboard.
Well, have a look at the Pokémon SDK scripts and try searching for this Input module. Copy it to your project and it'll (probably) work.

SEE YA!!!!!

 

[diewas]

Ok. So I copied the input module over to my game. However, again an error occurred. I went into the script and found this line was causing problems:

$pkmn.trainername = @text.to_s

As my game is not pokemon, I naturally deleted the line. Guess what? The name input window worked, but didn't change the name of the actor. I'm guessing this line is important then. What i can I change it to, so that it will affect the actor and not the 'pokemon trainer' !?

 

[Desecration]

Try changing it to (This is purely based off speculation, as thats all I can do unless you provide the Imput script aswell);

$actor.name = @text.to_s

However this will mean you have to paste this into def main,

@actor = actor

@name = actor.name

. Try it, if it doesn't work post the Imput script and I'll give it another go.

 

[diewas]

Hi. Thanks for replying - I;m a bit of a script noob, whereabouts do I put that line in Main? Under the rest of the script? My Main looks like this:

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

# ** Main

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

#  After defining each class, actual processing begins here.

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

 

begin

   # Prepare for transition

    $defaultfonttype = $fontface = $defaultfontface = $fonttype = "Arial"

    $defaultfontsize = $fontsize = (20) 

      Graphics.freeze

    # Make scene object (title screen)

  $scene = Scene_Intro.new

    # Call main method as long as $scene is effective

  while $scene != nil

    $scene.main

  end

  # Fade out

  Graphics.transition(20)

rescue Errno::ENOENT

  # Supplement Errno::ENOENT exception

  # If unable to open file, display message and end

  filename = $!.message.sub("No such file or directory - ", "")

  print("Unable to find file #{filename}.")

end

 

 

[Desecration]

Ahh sorry you've misunderstood me, you paste it into the def main of that script so it should be like

  def main

    @spriteset = Spriteset_Map.new

    @actor = actor

    @name2 = actor.name

    @name = Window_Name.new

    @name.z = 999999

    @input = Window_NameInput.new

    @input.z = 999999

    # トランジション実行

    Graphics.transition

    # メインループ

    loop do

      # ゲーム画面を更新

      Graphics.update

      # フレーム更新

      update

      # 画面が切り替わったらループを中断

      if $scene != self

        break

      end

    end

    # トランジション準備

    Graphics.freeze

    # メッセージウィンドウを解放

    @spriteset.dispose

    @name.dispose

    @name2.dispose

    @actor.dispose

    @input.dispose

    # タイトル画面に切り替え中の場合

  end

Replace the def_main of the first script with that, change the line I told you to in my previous post and try it.

 

[diewas]

I undestood this time :D -

However I got this error:

Script 'Name Input' line 14: NameError ocurred.

 

undefined local variable or method 'actor' for #<Scene_Name0x724cec8>

 

Any ideas? Or is it time for me to post the input script??

 

[Desecration]

Yeah post the imput script please, I'll give it a look.

EDIT: Could of been a simple error on my part, sorry give this a quick try;

@actor = $game_party.actors[1]

replace the other

@actor = actor

with that and it may or may not work.

 

[diewas]

New Error this time:

line 15

undefined local variable or method 'actor' for <Scene_Name:0x724a960>


Here is the input script:

[Desecration]

Sorted. I hope. Replace the current Name_Imput script with this one;
It doesn't show an actor graphic, at the moment I'm going to be looking at this to see if I can fix it. But other than that works fine for me with that Imput script.

EDIT: It was a stupid error from me once again, very sorry about this. It'll now draw the correct actor graphic when you call the script. Just paste the code where ever above main and below the imput script.
