[Resolved] status as icons?

[blazinhandle]

anyone know where i can get a script that will display a character's status as icons (i already have ones made) rather than the name? Like if a character is stunned it'll show a lightning bolt, but if he's also slow it'll show 2 icons? Thanks!

It's late so I'm not really thinking, but can't you just make the icon into an animation and just have the state activate that animation?

hmmm, well i'm looking to display the icon(s) in the battle status window and replace those for the text.

The images = [] is where you put your images named after your status'. Ex: you have Poison as a status, have a picture in the icons folder called Poison.

Code Select Expand

def make_battler_state_images(battler)
    images = []
    for i in battler.states
      images.push(RPG::Cache.icon($data_states[i].name))
    end
   
    return images
  end
 
  def draw_actor_state(actor, x, y, width = 120)
    images = make_battler_state_images(actor)
    for i in 0...images.length
      rect = Rect.new(x + (i * 26), y, self.width - 32, 24)
      self.contents.fill_rect(rect, Color.new(0, 0, 0, 0))
      self.contents.blt(x + (i * 26), y, images[i], Rect.new(0, 0, 24, 24), 255)
    end
  end

I cant believe how quick was that
very useful for showing all status, just what i was looking for but with pictures
thanks
by the way, i didnt add any images name to 'images' variable and it worked just fine jeje

It doesn't work for me. 

you have to add the code to Window_Base before the last 'end', and add the images with the name of the status to the Icons folder. They have to be png, i think

[fadark]

whats png mean?

[blazinhandle]

it's the file extension

[fadark]

whats that?

[blazinhandle]

most pictures in RMXP use .png files for example Arshes character sprite is a .png (Arshes.png).

[fadark]

okay thanks it works!

I did it correctly but I keep getting an error message... I followed what y'all said exactly. Any idea what I might be doing wrong? I can't seem to do anything that has to do with scripts without completely screwing it up...
