actually d"d you can do 3 very very easily with scripts, though i still need to work on how to make the additional heroes actually show  :wink:

(somewhere around spam i posted a script demo, it was included in it with some  other stuff, you can use page down and you'll see the new heroes and when you battle you need to use the attack menus blindly (can't see it but you can still push buttons as if you did see it))
i'll try working on it another day i am trying to make another script atm

To make characters follow you, on every map, create the event for the character that you want to follow you, set up a switch, so when he or she joins your party, that event will now have the sprite of the character. Then have the even be parallel process, and have him steping one step closer to you, and repeat it, at whatever speed (To have him actuall follow you, look under move command in the 2nd page). Prsto, the guy should follow you till the ends of the earth.

1: To make an event select the event layer then double click where you want the event on the map and select the apropriate event commands
2: Event commands 3rd tab laft collum second from the top aand set the graphic to a shop owner looking guy
3: there r scripts availuable for extra characters on your team if you want all your characters to battle at once you could try this one http://www.dubealex.com/asylum/index.php?showtopic=2627
4: search for a catapila script
5: this is done through events
Many of ur other questions can be solved in the database to change character names select the hero tab and to change your starting party select the system tab

lol. I figured out how to use the events. God! I feel so stupid!! I didnt realize that you had to right click on the page. ok as for the data base I figured that out right away(@ days ago when I downloaded it)

I think the only things I need help with now is the logos and Icon, and making it so I can hold more than 4 characters. Thx for al the help guys. sry for being such a super noob.

Oh.lol :lol: . Np. So does that mean that theres no way to make it so you can hold more than 4 characters on 2003?

Post by: blueXx on December 08, 2005, 07:59:21 PM
nope sadly since 2k3 can't have scripts it can't have anything outside it's normal programming, so no over 4 heroes for you :(

Actually if you make a CBS and a CMS, that might be possible. :O_o:  You just have to code it properly, making sure to get all the steps right. And a caterpillar system can also add realism to it.
