Very small and simple request...

[aj62896]

Hey guys, I've finally decided to just ditch catchm's FFX-2 CMS, and instead, just modify the default menu. Basically, in the menu, I need the character graphics changed to an 80x80 (pixels) image from a folder that contains several face graphics. The target directory would be "My Documents\RPGXP\GAME001\Characters\Faces."
I have in bold print the location from where my images will come from. Also, I noticed this in Blizzard's merged FFX-2 CMS (based on catchm's original work) combined with the Limit Break script:

#=====================================
def draw_actor_face(actor, x, y)
face = RPG::Cache.character("Faces/" + actor.character_name, actor.character_hue)
fw = face.width
fh = face.height
src_rect = Rect.new(0, 0, fw, fh)
self.contents.blt(x - fw / 23, y - fh, face, src_rect)
end

If anyone can use this or something similar to this to change the graphic, I would very much appreciate it.

I'd rather do this early on that play with CMS's right off. I hope someone can help me out.

Hmmm try this:

class Window_Base
  alias draw_actor_graphic1 draw_actor_graphic
  def draw_actor_graphics
    if $scene.is_a?(Scene_Menu)
      face = RPG::Cache.character("Faces/" + actor.character_name, actor.character_hue)
      src_rect = Rect.new(0, 0, 80, 80)
      self.contents.blt(x - 40, y - 80, face, src_rect)
    else
      draw_actor_graphic1
    end
  end
end

Not working :S

I tried just inserting this script above main, then even tried putting it in the Window_Base itself under "Draw Graphic."

Is there something that I'm not doing right?

Hmmm sorry, a small error... :s
But I'm not sure what do you need

class Window_Base
  alias draw_actor_graphic1 draw_actor_graphic
  def draw_actor_graphic
    if $scene.is_a?(Scene_Menu)
      face = RPG::Cache.character("Faces/" + actor.character_name, actor.character_hue)
      src_rect = Rect.new(0, 0, 80, 80)
      self.contents.blt(x - 40, y - 80, face, src_rect)
    else
      draw_actor_graphic1
    end
  end
end

Be sure to paste it just before Main.

Not working still...

I get

Script 'Window_MenuStatus' line 28: ArgumentError occured.

wrong number of arguments(3 for 0)

Basically, I need these character graphics like so (and in the other sections of the menu where they're displayed) to be replaced with images from the "Character/Faces/" directory.

Sorry... again :s

class Window_Base
  alias draw_actor_graphic1 draw_actor_graphic
  def draw_actor_graphic(x, y, actor)
    if $scene.is_a?(Scene_Menu)
      face = RPG::Cache.character("Faces/" + actor.character_name, actor.character_hue)
      src_rect = Rect.new(0, 0, 80, 80)
      self.contents.blt(x - 40, y - 80, face, src_rect)
    else
      draw_actor_graphic1(x, y, actor)
    end
  end
end

 

[aj62896]

Hehe...now I get

Script 'Faces' line 5: NoMethodError occured.

undefined method `character_name' for 80:Fixnum

Faces is the name of the script that I put above Main. Any ideas?

Do you have any other scripts above main custom i mean obviously?

Do you have any other scripts above main custom i mean obviously?

No. I started a fresh project and added this script. I haven't added any other scripts yet. I want to make sure I can get this working first.

Sorry again... if this fails again, i'll test it by myself

class Window_Base
  alias draw_actor_graphic1 draw_actor_graphic
  def draw_actor_graphic(actor, x, y)
    if $scene.is_a?(Scene_Menu)
      face = RPG::Cache.character("Faces/" + actor.character_name, actor.character_hue)
      src_rect = Rect.new(0, 0, 80, 80)
      self.contents.blt(x - 40, y - 80, face, src_rect)
    else
      draw_actor_graphic1(actor, x, y)
    end
  end
end

Sweet now the script is showing the face graphics. Now then, there's only one small problem:

Maybe if the text for each party member is moved over some? The image just gets cut off on the left side. If not, I can make alternative face graphics to fit it.
