Multi-Slot Equipment VX, Extra armor slots, cursed equipment, and more... Options

More??? More than two???

Figures.

I left out the whole '3 or more hands' feature as RMVX already enabled two-handed/sword-shield style mixes.

Hey VV, I absolutly love this script. It's incredile. I have one question though. With your script, you can choose to dual wield or have a sword and shield. And use a call script to change it. Is there a way to make it so that you can just equip both? (not at same time of course). Like, just take of your shield and equip a sword. I would really like this feature. I want to implement offhand weapons and the freedom to choose between them and shields.

Currently, there is no feature to auto-detect and auto-switch between dual-wielding and sword/shield styles if that is your question. You do have to 'switch' a character's dual-wielding feature ON/OFF beforehand. Good thing I made that script call for 'two_sword_styles' aka dual-wielding.

Ok thanks anyway.

Copied from C.A. *hehe... you posted there too. :

Line #443 in Game_Actor is

CODE

$game_party.gain_item(last_item, 1)

which calls on the gain_item method. Given that gain_item is a default system method, this is strange indeed.

Please give information as to what you're doing to get that error.

I have an error any time i add this and character select menu.
Script 'Game Actor' line 443: NoMethodError
undefined method`gain item' for nil:NilClass

[DerVVulfman]

Okay... though it is the same error, it is the result of this and a 'Character Select' menu.

Please give me a link to that script so I can see what is happening.

[perroinu]

Can one of you post the script here? Or you can tell me how to stop the annoying "Failed to load actor data" that pops up when attempting to get into the game edit? It's just really annoying, thanks anyway.

After you download the file, just open it through VX instead of right there on the spot.

Either that or extract all the files ((it's a zip folder right?)) and it should work.

i tried to script a fix myself,but it didn't work.
I haven't scripted anything a LONG TIME.

[DerVVulfman]

In the ACTORS section of Multi-Slot, go to line 128 and add the following:

CODE

    return if equip_type == nil
    return if item == nil

So it will eventually read like so...

CODE

  def change_equip(equip_type, item, test = false)
    return if equip_type == nil
    return if item == nil
    # Perform the original call
    ms_actor_change_equip(equip_type, item, test)
    # If an additional slot
    etc......

That will be updated next chance I get. Just consider it version 1.3?

Thanks to JamesBlackwing for noting the error, and Speed@ for helping to narrow down the problem with the aid of the Prexus Character Select script.

[Speed@]

NP.
Can you help me with my project or at least fix this error in Final Fantasy XII battle system:

I LOVE this script, but I am having one tiny problem that I am hoping you can help me out with. I added a few new slots that all work great, except for the two slots that I called "Ring." They both show up fine and both can equip rings, but when I equip any ring (say Emerald Ring) in the first Ring slot, it is ALSO available to equip in the second Ring slot even though there is only one in the inventory. Eek. I keep looking the code over and I'm not sure what I've done wrong. Can you help me out?

[DerVVulfman]

Each slot TYPE must be a separate name.

If you created Slot 5 to be a 'Ring', and Slot 6 to be 'Ring'... and set the order to be 1,2,3,4,5,6......
Then it won't work right.

If you created Slot 5 to be a 'Ring' and then set the order to be 1,2,3,4,5,5....
Then you create an equipment menu using the ring slot (the two '5's).

Try that.

[tarukyaffxi]

Hmm, that's what I did. It's very strange. It works with weapons when the dual-weapon script is called, just not my Ring slots. It seems like it isn't taking the ring out of the inventory after it places it into the slot like it normally does. Here is a snippet of the code just in case:

CODE

ARMOR_KINDS = [0, 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 9]
EXTRA_SLOT_NAMES = ["Legs", "Hands", "Feet", "Neck", "Waist", "Ring"]

CURSED_WEAPONS = []
CURSED_ARMOR = [30]
CURSED_COLOR = 30

SWITCH_EQUIP_WEAPONS = []
SWITCH_EQUIP_ARMORS = [ [28,30] ]

end

Also, I have the BOF Weapon Skills script, the Weapon Unleash script, and the HP/MP Equip Offset script all beneath your Multi-Slot script, but I don't really see anything in those that would interfere with that specifically. Any other thoughts? Thanks a ton for your help!

It's the HP/MP Equip Offset's fault. you are probably using version 1.2
there was a link to v1.3 that fix this bug (its on the 5th post, not in the main) here: http://www.storymasterq.net/rmvx/scripts/M..._MMOES_v1.3.txt
So multislot and HP/MP are almost 100% compatible (as for now)

So does it work now?

[Lettuce]

:<!
I can't change actor's class when using this script~
I'm thinking it's something to do with this method:

CODE

  def class_id=(class_id)
    # Perform the original call
    ms_actor_class_id=(class_id)
    return if extra_armor_slot == 0  # Only if no additional slots
    # Sort through slots
    for i in 5..armor_slot
      change_equip(i, nil) unless equippable?(equips[i])
    end
  end

please help <3

[DerVVulfman]

Hey, Lettuce. Been a while since I heard from ya. Same Lettuce from the other sites, right?

I got it figured out, and yes... it is related to that method. I am at a friend's computer right now, so I don't have my demo available to re-upload. But if I told ya what I did to fix it... you'd laugh.

I'll try to remember to upload it tonight.
