I have a problem with this part of Slipknot's script. It's reporting an error in this line: self.bitmap = Bitmap.new size, 22
Error: failed to create bitmap. please help!
def initialize x, y, text=' '
dumb = Bitmap.new 320, 42
size = dumb.text_size(text).width
dumb.dispose
@back = Window_Base.new x, y, size+12, 32
@back.z = 9995
unless NB_skin.nil?
@back.windowskin = RPG::Cache.windowskin NB_skin
end
viewport = Viewport.new x+6, y+5, size, 22
viewport.z = @back.z+10
super viewport
self.bitmap = Bitmap.new size, 22
case Default_Text
when 0 then bitmap.draw_text 0, 0, size, 22, text
when 1 then bitmap.draw_text_shadow 0, 0, size, 22, text
when 2 then bitmap.draw_text_outline 0, 0, size, 22, text end
end
I'm also having trouble with this script. I can't even put it in my script box, when ever I do they always say theres either an error in a line or something else. I need help.
Just use dubealex's one.. Personally, I find it a lot better :)
I want this one
I want this one to but what do you mean use Dubalex's one ?
Who is that ..?
Well what ever it is or something. Gimme the url to the website or the link to the post.
PLEASE! :)
I really want a message system like slipknots
I think it's this one....

I already have the script. YAY!
I found it at some RPG revolution forums place. I looked on google for scripts and this website came up.

Thats not the exact page, but look around the website you'll find the script. Now all I need to do is learn how to use it.
um...hey there...yeah..new user here. awesome site by the way..oh..sorry.
well, I'm having trouble with the picture in text box:
PICTURE
-Slipknot
Display the selected picture above the message box. The file must be in the folder Graphics/Pictures/Message/, but can be changed.
\Pic[picture name]
it's probably really obvious (I tend to miss the little things lol) but I can't seem to put a pic in the text box. let's say I have a young link (file name is young link layer) pic in the graphics/pictures folder (in resource manager).
where exactly do I put the young link pic for it to work? does the pic need to have specific dimensions? btw, I'm using postality knights...dunno if that makes a difference (don't think so...but..).
sorry if my question is n00bish...I'm in the process of learning....
thanks in advance.

Alright listen. You need to create a direct root to that folder from Graphics/Pictures...the PK version doesn't have a Message folder so you are going to have to create it yourself. Create that new folder, insert the image you want to use in that folder.
Go back to your map, new event, message: \Pic[filenamewithnoextension]TEXT
I.e. \Pic[Magnus]Hello, how are you doing?
Make sure you put the image inside your Message folder that you created in the pictures directory, and make sure the file type is an extension that RPGMXP can read...like PNG
ah... :^^: *slaps forehead* but of course....
thank you very much viper. all fixed now. thanks a bunch.
