Stack Level Too Deep Error...

[Tdata]

Simply put i get a stack level too deep error for

    @sprite.bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture(@actor.name + ".png" )

In

class Window_Hud < Window_Base
def initialize
  super(0,0, 128, 256)
  self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
@actor = $game_party.actors[0]
refresh
end
def refresh
  @sprite= Sprite.new
  @sprite.bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture(@actor.name + ".png" )
  @sprite.z = 999
    refresh
end
end

What did i do wrong?

You are calling the refresh method inside of the refresh method just remove the refresh from that method

I figured it would be something stupid like that...

non related to the Stack error, which you fixed, why does the image never go away? I can't hide it...

 

[Ceroscuro]

At least in that segment of code, you never tell it to go away.

I call the script in Scene_Map and when i go to the menu the sprite is still there, but the text isn't. Is there something special i need to add to have it dispose of the sprite too?

 

[Freakboy]

instead of a sprite, use the blt function.
this should work:

class Window_Hud < Window_Base
  def initialize
    super(0, 0, 128, 256)
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width-32, height-32)
    refresh
  end
  def refresh
    self.contents.clear
    @actor = $game_party.actors[0]
    bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture("#{@actor.name}.png")
    rect = Rect.new(0,0,bitmap.width,bitmap.height)
    self.contents.blt(0,0,bitmap,rect)
  end
end

Thank you.

Another question. What is the syntax for playing a sound during a script?

 

[Ceroscuro]

Either $game_system.se_play($data_system.decision_se) (or cancel_se, or buzzer_se; the database-defined sounds) or Audio.se_play("filename", volume, pitch) where filename is the name of the file (path included; i.e. Audio/SE/soundeffect), volume is the volume (0 to 100) and pitch is the pitch (50 to 150).

An example of the last one would be Audio.se_play("Audio/SE/footstep", 85, 100). 100 is default pitch.

I get

Wrong number of arguments(3 for 1)

 

[Ceroscuro]

What did you put?

 

[Tdata]

$game_system.se_play("Audio/SE/07 - Fete", 100, 100)

 

[Trickster]

use this instead

audio = RPG::AudioFile.new("07 - Fete", 100, 100)
$game_system.se_play(audio)

The only parameter that needs to be sent to Game_System#se_play is a RPG::AudioFile Object
