This one should be easy for most scripters! So will you try to help me?

I am translating some things from English to my language in RPG Maker XP. For that effect I am replacing some words in the script by the corresponding words in my language. I've managed to find and translate most words in the script so far except this one. Can you tell me where it is, where it can be translated in the script?

The word is:

- "Critical" - I think it shows up when you do a "critical hit" during battle. I already found "Miss" and translated it but this one doesn't seem to be near it as it, in my opinion, should be...

Thank you for your help!

Critical, when used in Critical hit, is the opossite of miss. In other words, you do more damage, because you hit a vital part of the enemy's body.

It looks like you didn't understand my question. I want to know where the expression "Critical" or "CRITICAL" is located in the script of RPG Maker XP, so I can alter the word "Critical" that shows up in game when you do a critical hit. Hope you understood now.

Make a new script above Main, add this:

module RPG
class Sprite < ::Sprite
    alias my_damage damage
    def damage(value, critical)
      dispose_damage
      if value.is_a?(Numeric)
        damage_string = value.abs.to_s
      else
        damage_string = value.to_s
      end
      text = "CRITICAL"
      bitmap = Bitmap.new(160, 48)
      bitmap.font.name = "Arial Black"
      bitmap.font.size = 32
      bitmap.font.color.set(0, 0, 0)
      bitmap.draw_text(-1, 12-1, 160, 36, damage_string, 1)
      bitmap.draw_text(+1, 12-1, 160, 36, damage_string, 1)
      bitmap.draw_text(-1, 12+1, 160, 36, damage_string, 1)
      bitmap.draw_text(+1, 12+1, 160, 36, damage_string, 1)
      if value.is_a?(Numeric) and value < 0
        bitmap.font.color.set(176, 255, 144)
      else
        bitmap.font.color.set(255, 255, 255)
      end
      bitmap.draw_text(0, 12, 160, 36, damage_string, 1)
      if critical
        bitmap.font.size = 20
        bitmap.font.color.set(0, 0, 0)
        bitmap.draw_text(-1, -1, 160, 20, text, 1)
        bitmap.draw_text(+1, -1, 160, 20, text, 1)
        bitmap.draw_text(-1, +1, 160, 20, text, 1)
        bitmap.draw_text(+1, +1, 160, 20, text, 1)
        bitmap.font.color.set(255, 255, 255)
        bitmap.draw_text(0, 0, 160, 20, text, 1)
      end
      @_damage_sprite = ::Sprite.new(self.viewport)
      @_damage_sprite.bitmap = bitmap
      @_damage_sprite.ox = 80
      @_damage_sprite.oy = 20
      @_damage_sprite.x = self.x
      @_damage_sprite.y = self.y - self.oy / 2
      @_damage_sprite.z = 3000
      @_damage_duration = 40
    end
end
end

Change 'text = "CRITICAL"' into whatever you like.

Not sure if this works, but it should as far as I can tell.

EDIT: I tested it and it worked perfectly fine with any word I used.

Thanks a lot! It works!
