Law's Battle Icons

Version 1.0
The Law G14
8/30/09


Introduction
This small little script I made basically allows the party command window in the battle screen to have icons. For example, next to skills, there would be a skill icon, and next to attack, there would be an attack icon and so on. Hope you guys enjoy the script


Features

Allows the party command window to have icons.


Script

 Battle_Icons.txt ( 5.46K ) Number of downloads: 325


Compatibility

I don't think this would run into any compatibility issues, but if it does, feel free to report it to me.

Screenshot



Installation

Save FOUR icons in the icons section of your resource manager. The first icon, or the icon next to 'Attack' should be named Battle0, then the next icon, or the icon next to 'skill' should be Battle1, and so on.


FAQ

None as of now.

Terms and Conditions

Just credit it me where it's due

Also, if you plan on hosting this script in other sites PLEASE TELL ME.

Special Thanks

Special Thanks to Blizzard for helping with the icon part of the script.

This script looks awesome, Law! Odd how something so simple can enhance the appearance of a battle

[Holder]

Wonderful to see you're moving into altering the battle system, you're progressing quickly.

Keep up the great work.

@Icalasari: Hey, thanks! If you find any problems, feel free to report them

@Holder: Thanks, Holder It was actually the easiest script I've made so far since before, I was trying to add icons to the command window in the menu and Blizzard helped me out. All I did was apply the same logic for this command window and I found myself a decent script.

Any suggestions are welcome

[Soul_Torn]

Alright my issue is...
this script isn't compatible with the: Enu SBS Tanketai XP script...

*sounds like an utter newb*

is there a way to make it compatible?

Thanks,
Soul_Torn

Hm, may I see Enu's battle script, or could you just link me to the page that I can get the script?

Alright, found out how to fix it, finally. Put my script under all your other scripts, though keep it above main and that should do the trick.

Thats how it is... and i still get that error message. O.o

[The Law G14]

Yeah, I figured it out! Alright, first of all, replace the old Battle Icons script you have with this:

CODE

#============================Version 1.0=======================================

  def initialize(index, continue)
    commands = [$data_system.words.attack, $data_system.words.skill, $data_system.words.guard,
                $data_system.words.item]
    super(0, 0, 160, commands.size * 32 + 32)
    @item_max = commands.size
    @commands = commands
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, @item_max * 32)
    refresh
    self.index = 0
  end
  #-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Draw Item
  #-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def draw_item(i, color)
    self.contents.fill_rect(0, i*32, 148, 32, Color.new(0, 0, 0, 0))
    bitmap = RPG::Cache.icon("Battle#{i}")
    opacity = (color == normal_color ? 255 : 128)
    self.contents.blt(4, 4 + i*32, bitmap, Rect.new(0, 0, 24, 24), opacity)
    self.contents.font.color = color
    self.contents.draw_text(32, i*32, 148, 32, @commands[i])
  end  
end
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Refresh
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
def refresh
  self.contents.clear
  for i in 0...@item_max
    draw_item(i, normal_color)
  end
end

Next, on line 51 of the Sideview 2 script, replace that line with this:

CODE

@actor_command_window = Window_Command_Battle.new(160, [s1, s2, s3, s4])

That should work

[Soul_Torn]

DId it.
got this:


it only does this when i go to use the commands.
like it shows up, then crashes when i go to make the attack.
