Simple Item Menu edit

[Genji]

I was wondering if someone could edit the default item menu, so that it looks like this:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v461/ ... thingy.jpg[/IMG]

I want the part on the right to just be black the whole time. The reason I drew an arrow on the menu thing is because I was wondering if you could make it so thats one row of items, and when its full, any more items go to a new "page". To navigate through the pages, you press left or right. So:

Item Screen:

Potion
Potion
Thing
Ball
Ball ->> other items, and so on.
Hat
Sword
Knife

In short, like the FF8 item screen. You'll know what I'm talking about if you've played it. Let me know if you want it explained more. Credit will of course go to the maker.

Much thanks.

EDIT: Does it matter what CMS I'm using?

Bump.

I like how you refer to this as a "simple" edit. You're basically asking someone to reprogram the whole thing. I don't have RMXP on this computer otherwise I would have attempted this. If no one accepts this in a few days I might be able to give it a shot.

Well, I don't really need the page thing to work. All that I really need is for it to be just one column, with the right side black.

I'm assuming you don't want stacking items? I can't do that, but I can do it with one column and half the width.

In Window_Item

in the initialize method:
change

super(0, 64, 640, 416)

to

super(0, 64, 320, 416)

and change

@column_max = 2

to

@column_max = 1

draw_item changes:

x = 4 + index % 2 * (180 + 32)
 y = index / 2 * 32

to

x = 4
 y = index / 1 * 32

I only took about 5 minutes on this, but I've tested it and it works. You'll need a better scripter if you don't want them to stack. I'm sure by the time I post this, someone else will have posted already, anyway. Oh, and it might not be x = 4 + index % 2 * (180 + 32), I tested it in a game that I'd edited for 3 columns.

Awesome, that seems to work just fine. I will-do with that unless someone can make the page thing work.
