Modified Scene_Name 1.3b Final, Another small updater for V.1.3. Options

[Helladen]

Introduction:
This is a script I modified from Rpg Maker XP. It is something to rename your character with. Someone requested it on rpgmakervx.net forums, so I did it for him. This is the link to the owner of the script.
http://forum.chaos-project.com/index.php?topic=6731.0

Here is the link to the requested topic:

Screenshots:
Go to the link above, it basically looks the same, but it does look a little bit better.

Demo:
Not needed.

Reason for edit: Put long script into a spoiler ~Night5h4d3

[yuzippy]

Delete line 47. It is a double. Otherwise really nice! Great job!

!yuz!

Edit: In fact, I would replace lines 34-48 which looks like this:

CODE

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Refresh
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def refresh
    self.contents.clear
    self.contents.font.name = "Arial"
    self.contents.font.size = 16
    self.contents.font.color = normal_color
    #Change this text to whatever instructions u want to have!
    self.contents.draw_text(0, 9, 404, 32, "Enter = Confirm,")
    self.contents.draw_text(100, 9, 404, 32, "Backspace = Delete,")
    self.contents.draw_text(225, 9, 404, 32, "Keyboard = Text,")
    self.contents.draw_text(328, 9, 404, 32, "Shift = Capital,")
    self.contents.draw_text(418, 9, 404, 32, "Enter = Confirm")
  end
end

Into this:

CODE

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Refresh
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def refresh
    self.contents.clear
    self.contents.font.name = "Arial"
    self.contents.font.size = 18
    self.contents.font.color = normal_color
    #Change this text to whatever instructions you want to have!
    self.contents.draw_text(000, 9, 404, 32, "Enter = Confirm,")
    self.contents.draw_text(120, 9, 404, 32, "Backspace = Delete,")
    self.contents.draw_text(270, 9, 404, 32, "Keyboard = Text,")
    self.contents.draw_text(390, 9, 404, 32, "Shift = Capital")

Thanks I'll check it out and see if its better.

Updated script to V.1.2. Thanks for the fix. I modified it a little, but was something I didn't notice.

Thanks this looks pretty good. Alot better than the standard one that is provided.

[yuzippy]

Heh, yeah, I just noticed the text was a little small

[Helladen]

I just modified the keyboard part to be more evenly spread out. Basically took what you posted though.

1.3 added where you can have it draw your face or character sprite.
Fixed it from not having a sound if you erased letters.
Changed some of the sounds and other small fixes.

This is the last fix, hope this works well for some of you.

[silvershadic]

Is there a way to make the letter's use able at times other than the name inputting?
I.e. Use the "Z" Key in game to select stuff like the Enter Key, but when it goes into the name input it's changed temporarily?

[Helladen]

I don't understand what your asking, but if your asking if you can make buttons to input and such yes its possible.

[silvershadic]

I don't understand what your asking, but if your asking if you can make buttons to input and such yes its possible.

in the default settings, pressing "X" opens the menu. When the script is added, it's functionality is taken out.
I was asking if there was a way, to only remove the functionality of "X" during the name input screen, when it would just be a latter, but after the name input was over, it would return to be functional..

[Helladen]

X is used as a key input why would you need to do that? It works fine outside of the name input screen. I still don't know what your asking here.

[silvershadic]

X is used as a key input why would you need to do that? It works fine outside of the name input screen. I still don't know what your asking here.

It stopped working for me.
Maybe it's just some script incompatibility.

[Helladen]

Try putting it at the very top and very bottom. Sometimes it is script compatibility issues.
