Showing icons for equipped items

[Ellie]

Howdy, I am making yet another new Hud for my game...

I am going to have it show the icons for the equipped items at the bottom of the screen.

I need to know what I need to put to show these icons.

For example, I want to show the equipped weapon's icon, what do I put to show this icon?

 

[Daniel]

This is just for the first party member, right?

 

[Ellie]

Yes, just the first member.

Here you go, insert this above main:

class Spriteset_Map
  alias icon_init initialize
  alias icon_dispose dispose
  def initialize
    icon_init
    bitmap = Bitmap.new(32, 160)
    unless $game_party.actors[0].weapon_id == 0
      icon = $data_weapons[$game_party.actors[0].weapon_id].icon_name
      bitmap.blt(0, 0, RPG::Cache.icon(icon), Rect.new(0, 0, 24, 24))
    end
    for i in 1..4
      case i
      when 1
        next if $game_party.actors[0].armor1_id == 0
        icon = $data_armors[$game_party.actors[0].armor1_id].icon_name
      when 2
        next if $game_party.actors[0].armor2_id == 0
        icon = $data_armors[$game_party.actors[0].armor2_id].icon_name
      when 3
        next if $game_party.actors[0].armor3_id == 0
        icon = $data_armors[$game_party.actors[0].armor3_id].icon_name
      when 4
        next if $game_party.actors[0].armor4_id == 0
        icon = $data_armors[$game_party.actors[0].armor4_id].icon_name
      end
      bitmap.blt(0, i*32, RPG::Cache.icon(icon), Rect.new(0, 0, 24, 24))
    end
    @icon_sprite = Sprite.new
    @icon_sprite.bitmap = bitmap
    @icon_sprite.x = 8
    @icon_sprite.y = 320
    @icon_sprite.z = 500
  end
  def dispose
    icon_dispose
    @icon_sprite.dispose
  end
end

Sorry for sounding like a noob, but how do I change the position of the icons on the screen?

thanks by the way.

 

[Daniel]

Find the lines that sets the icon sprite's x and y values towards the bottom and change them.

Or if you mean, you want them to be horizontal or something, let me know and I'll change it.

 

[Ellie]

I need them horizontal, but at these positions:

222, 417
272, 417
322, 417
376, 417

So you don't want an icon for the weapon? You only listed four.

Either way, is this what you wanted?

class Spriteset_Map
  alias icon_init initialize
  alias icon_dispose dispose
  def initialize
    icon_init
    bitmap = Bitmap.new(250, 32)
    unless $game_party.actors[0].weapon_id == 0
      icon = $data_weapons[$game_party.actors[0].weapon_id].icon_name
      bitmap.blt(0, 0, RPG::Cache.icon(icon), Rect.new(0, 0, 24, 24))
    end
    for i in 1..4
      case i
      when 1
        next if $game_party.actors[0].armor1_id == 0
        icon = $data_armors[$game_party.actors[0].armor1_id].icon_name
      when 2
        next if $game_party.actors[0].armor2_id == 0
        icon = $data_armors[$game_party.actors[0].armor2_id].icon_name
      when 3
        next if $game_party.actors[0].armor3_id == 0
        icon = $data_armors[$game_party.actors[0].armor3_id].icon_name
      when 4
        next if $game_party.actors[0].armor4_id == 0
        icon = $data_armors[$game_party.actors[0].armor4_id].icon_name
      end
      bitmap.blt(i*50, 0, RPG::Cache.icon(icon), Rect.new(0, 0, 24, 24))
    end
    @icon_sprite = Sprite.new
    @icon_sprite.bitmap = bitmap
    @icon_sprite.x = 222
    @icon_sprite.y = 417
    @icon_sprite.z = 500
  end
  def dispose
    icon_dispose
    @icon_sprite.dispose
  end
end

I counted wrong =) but yes, that's what I wanted. Thanks.
