[RESOLVED] I want to make a game that does not have items. help!

I try to just delete the item array but it gives me this error saying that there is an event pointing to an item that doesn't exist.....    can some1 tell me why this is and/or how to remove items from my game?

just dont use them...but I think you are meaning take it out of menu right?

Where is the error occuring? In the database or in the game?

If you want to remove the option from menu, just replace Scene_Menu with this: (if it is default menu, and not custom)

Code: [Select]

Test it in a new project first to make sure something doesn't mess up - I'm really not much of a scripter, but all I did was remove everything that would call the items menu, so it should work.

Anyway, post if that wasn't the problem you were looking to fix. If it is, you'll also need to remove it from your battle scene, so I'll do that later if that is what you are asking.

I don't know what all that code was for, i'm using 2003. Just not using them worked tho so thx to Nouman.

xD no problem  .
Next time remember to tell us your version of the software first! lol so we know what to help you with. Modern supplyed a fix for the problem using RMXP. not 2k3

Should be a simple, if not long, thing to fix. What that tells me is that some were in your game ( were ever the error appears ) you have an event that uses one of the deleted items. Check the events around the area of the error message for an action that uses an item, then change the event to NOT include that said item.

You sadly can't just delete all of the items if they are reference throughout your game, but following these steps should help you fix it.

If you go to Tools > Database > System 2, you can remove the items slot and/or the equiment slot from the menu.

it was prolly just the equipment thing....had forgotten to remove that....but it turns out that id o want the items after all >_< thx for the help tho.

Therefore this can now be locked and resolved. If you're not quite done, just open it. OR Pm me or the mods.
