Final Fantasy VII Menu System

[cozziekuns]

Yes, cozziekuns finally decided to do some scripting.

EDIT: Woops, forgot to put the script in -.-

*UPDATED*

Final Fantasy VII Menu System
Version: Number
Author: Cozziekuns
Date: April 12, 2010

Version History

• <Version 1.0> 04.12.2010 - Original Release
• <Version 1.1> 04.12.2010 - Updated version, with icons, support for every font, and modules for easy customization.

Planned Future Versions

• <Version 1.1> - Icons, and hopefully support for every font. Plus modules to allow easy customization.
• <Version 1.1b> - More icons! Yes, I love those things.

Description

A menu system similar to that of Final Fantasy VII's. You MUST be using the font "Calibri", as this was basically made for my own, secret purposes. I might make a version for all fonts, but that depends on your feedback. Seriously, if this script is shunned, I'm not going to bother upgrading it. Because I'm lazy.

Features

• Basically that of the default menu system, but more things to come.
• The menu system is presented in the same way as that of Final Fantasy VII's.
• A "To next level" bar.

Screenshots



Pretty plain, huh? I know, needs improvement.

• Cozziekuns

Thanks

• Rune; I got all my CMS making skills from you.
• Modern Algebra, for pointing out the fact you can align things.

Support

Just PM me or post below.

Known Compatibility Issues

Obviously, it won't work with other menu systems.

Demo

http://www.4shared.com/file/NM8_AV0Y/_2__FF7_Custom_Menu_System.html

[modern algebra]

Looks pretty cool. Nice work. Why does it only work with Calibri?

Note: You can align text to be centered or to the right of the specified box, so the command:

Code Select Expand


self.contents.draw_text (x, y, width, height, text, alignment)


where alignment is 0 (Left), 1 (Center), or 2 (Right)

Might be useful if you want to make this compatible with different fonts.

[cozziekuns]

Thanks for the tip MA! I've always wondered how people do that... I'll probably configure it later. I'm a little lazy

As for why it only works with Calibri, that's because I made the windows too small. If you try use UmeGothic Plus, which I think is a HUGE font, there's not enough space for it within the window. But I'm working on it.

[cozziekuns]

* Legal Bump *

Yep, I finally got around to updating this. Version 1.1 is out.

[metalsandwich]

I really like what you have done here and I wana help so I downloaded your script and made some mods to make it look like what you ambitioned it to could I have your permission to post this on rpgrevolutions please I understand if you refuse this request but all up thank you for your time

Metal,

[Infinate X]

This looks REALLY nice so I'm going to test it. if the Experience bar has color after gaining some experience then I may use it in an upcoming game. (I have Terramon and a side project going for when I'm not able to work on Terramon)

EDIT: I can't belive a necropost happened because I just told modern algebra most people don't necropost... It's not a bad thing but I think that's REALLY random and unconvinient for me, however it was convinient for me because I was able to comment without necroposting 

[Mushu]

I love this script, I couldn't find a menu that displayed the map name.

[Infinate X]

I forogt all about this script and decided to use PECMS and I already set up some menu options... I guess it's too late now...

I think a nice way to improve your script would be to implement a system like MA does in his menu systems where you can make your own menu options, and arrange them in an array!
