Failed to Create Bitmap Error

Okay. I just installed Slipknot's Advanced Message System Script into my game and I'm getting some errors. I made a NPC with the message box and when I talk to him, the screen will go black and I will get the error-

Code: [Select]

?????? 'Slipknot Message System' ? 516 ?? RGSSError ????????
Failed to create bitmap

Any help?

Copy the script here and I'll have a look at it.

When I started haveing problems, I took it directly from the demo. I got the same thing. Here's the code,

[code]#==============================================================================

Do you have any other scripts that may conflict with this AMS and did you install SDK also?

I installed SDK but it goes wrong when I tried to talk to the character who has the Name Box effect. I haven't tried another one, yet.

Also, when I do regular text, it shows nothing.

Inserting:

Code: [Select]

$defaultfonttype = "Tahoma"

Just below begin in Main will fix that error of not seeing any text.

Can you send me the game file so I can see what's going on?

I'm sorry. This is a noob question...

Where do I host my file?

You can either try Megaupload.com or filefront.com

Here it is.

Super...outstanding. Now send me a copy that isn't encrypted  :roll:  I can't help you if I can't access the game file.

Here is the new one.

It's giving you a bitmap error because there isn't a windowskin for the namebox labeled "Charcoal XP" within your graphics folder. Either get that windowskin, or go into the script and find this line:

Code: [Select]


NB_skin = 'Charcoal XP'


And change "Charcoal XP' to '001-Blue01' . This is the default window skin and will be used for the message box as well as the name window.

I've tried that. It also gives me another error. Let me see what it is.

EDIT: It gives me the same error. It says the error is on Line 516

Right....you know what. I'm going to upload the fixed version for you so you can see your problem.

Give me a second.

By the way you sound, it was me who created the problem. I'm such a stupid! :oops:

Alright here it is.

Wow! Amazing! I don't know how you did that, but many thanks!  :^^:
