<Scene: Common Event Menu XP>
<18. October 2010>



Summary
Hi all! :-) I read about the YERD Common Event Menu script for VX. I could really use something like that for XP. Basically, it's a menu (called with a script call, variable or whatever is easiest) that shows a few chioces. Upon selecting one of the choices, a common event is started and the menu is closed.

While the menu is open, a picture is displayed for the event that the cursor is hovering over. I haven't been able to find anything like this for XP - does it exist already, or would somebody be my hero and convert the VX script / make something similar from scratch?

Features Desired
  • Scene that allows player to choose a common event
  • Image displayed, change based on the common event highlighted.
  • Descriptive text displayed, at least 3 lines, change based on the common event highlighted.
  • Possible to define various common event menus (with different titles, pictures, events)
  • Title for each menu.

Mockups
  something like:

-------------------------------------------------------------
                MENU TITLE
     
      |------------------|
      |------------------|                  choice1
      |----picture -----|                 choice2
      |------------------|                  choice3
      |------------------|                  choice4
      |------------------|                  choice5
      |------------------|                  choice6
      |------------------|     

 descriptive text that changes to reflect highlighted choice

-----------------------------------------------------------
 

Games its been in
  • Many games have something similar for e.g class selection, feat/minor skill selection. I intend to use it for fast travel (like in Morrowind), passive skill upgrade, class selection.

That's exactly what I wanted... actually even better, I hadn't thought about the icons but they are a nice touch.

I use a lot of common events for subclasses, non-battle skills and stuff. This saves me finding / begging for a whole load of specialized scripts - thank you so much.

Now I am really happy :)

No problem, I'm glad to hear that. I hope the settings are understandable and the whole thing is easy enought to use. ^^
Btw. there 2 Scripts, the second isn't important. It's just to have an playerimage which is not depend on the first partymember.

Yes, it's very easy to understand and use!

Maybe I'll find a use for the other script as well, for cutscenes or something.

This is AWESOME  :o was looking for these  ^-^
but is there possible that it shows choices progresively ? (by using switch/variable) instead of just putting them bunch in there  ;D
and while at it put pict as the menu instead the default  ;D
