Show an image in all scenes?

[Ellie]

How can I make it so that an image shows in all scenes?

Like er...

@frame = Sprite.new
@frame.bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture('frames01')

/\ But show on every scene, including map, menu, battle, everything.

Edit:

Also

Is it possible to do something like this with the above:

if scene is Scene_Map, @frame.bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture('frame2')
else, @frame.bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture('frame')

....if so, where would I put this?

 

[Ellie]

Nevermind, I just put it in Scene_Title and then never told it to dispose of it.

I personally wouldn't recommend that.

What would be best would be make all class have a parent class and go that route (such as a Scene_Base).

My next suggestion would to be go into Main.

  while $scene != nil
    $scene.main
  end

Instead, change it with this:

  @sprite = Sprite.new
  while $scene != nil
    filename = $scene.is_a?(Scene_Map) ? 'Map Pic' : 'Other Pic'
    @sprite.bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture( filename )
    $scene.main
  end
  @sprite.dispose

That should do the trick.

Hmm... I tried this;

  @sprite = Sprite.new
  @frame = Sprite.new
  while $scene != nil
    filename = $scene.is_a?(Scene_Map) ? 'backddd' : 'backddd2'
    @sprite.bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture(filename)
    @sprite.y = 640
    @frame.bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture('HUDA')
    @frame.z = 9999
    $scene.main
  end
  @sprite.dispose
  @frame.dispose

The @frame picture shows fine, but the @sprite picture doesn't show at all.

Edit: Resolution fix script made it 750 pix wide, that's why it is y = 640.

Raise the z value on your @sprite

 

[Harlock]

But if you use event for show the image?

Sorry, i haaven't see, this is RGSS support. SOmeone can delete this?

B-)

 

[Ellie]

It is still not working. I set the Z at 1000.

 

[Chaosg1]

Try setting even higher maybe 5000...

 

[Ellie]

Hmm, it works at 5000. Strange...

 

[Jack A. Trades]

Hmm, it works at 5000. Strange...

I'm not sure if this is the cause, but in Spriteset_Map, the Z value for @viewport3 (for screen effects such as flashes, etc. apparently) is 5000.

I usually set a sprite's z-coordinate to ridiculous values (> 10000) if I want it to stay on the top layer, but that's just me.
