Vertical or Horizontal Menu with or without Icons

[Tsunokiette]

Here's the script. (Replace Window_Command with this)

This script was made to be SDK compliant, however it will also work if you don't have the SDK. For those of you have no idea what I'm talking about, simply enjoy the peace of ignorance *it's a joke, no offense intended*

Use like this-

For Vertical Menu With Icons

Code Select Expand

c1 = 'Option'
c2 = 'Option'
c3 = 'Option'
i1 = 'icon name'
i2 = 'icon name'
i3 = 'icon name'
@Command_Menu = VH_Window_Command.new('vertical', [c1,c2,c3], [i1,i2,i3])



For Vertical Menu Without Icons

Code Select Expand

c1 = 'Option'
c2 = 'Option'
c3 = 'Option'
@Command_Menu = VH_Window_Command.new('vertical', [c1,c2,c3])



For Horizontal Menu With Icons

Code Select Expand

c1 = 'Option'
c2 = 'Option'
c3 = 'Option'
i1 = 'icon name'
i2 = 'icon name'
i3 = 'icon name'
@Command_Menu = VH_Window_Command.new('horizontal', [c1,c2,c3], [i1,i2,i3])



For Horizontal Menu Without Icons

Code Select Expand

c1 = 'Option'
c2 = 'Option'
c3 = 'Option'
@Command_Menu = VH_Window_Command.new('horizontal', [c1,c2,c3])

I'm re-writing it right now, since it didn't work before (at least for me)

[haloOfTheSun]

I tried it and it didn't work, although maybe I wasn't using it correctly.

It should have worked, but it doesn't, so that's why I'm re-writing it.

you should test your scripts better before posting them......

X_X

you should test your scripts better before posting them......

Ya, but I have  to burn them to disk, take them to my messed up computer without an internet connection which is loaded with viruses,etc. and test it on the illegal version which is bound to effect the way the script runs.

So, I actualy do test my scripts, but before I do that I re-read the scripts constantly  looking for mistakes. If an un-foreseen error arises it's not my fault. It's usualy something that shouldn't be happening.

EDIT:

do you see anything wrong with this?

Code Select Expand

     unless icons.nil?
        for i in 0...icons.size
           @icons[i] = RPG::Cache.icon("#{icons[i]}")
        end
     end

because that's where the error keeps arising. oh, and if the script is used properly, then the above is the same as this-

Code Select Expand

     unless icons.nil?
        for i in 0...icons.size
           @icons[i] = RPG::Cache.icon(icons[i])
        end
     end

I'm working on a verion that doesn't use that method, hopefuly getting rid of the problem.

EDIT2: now that I think about it, RPG::Cache.icon(icons) actualy loads a file, so the error  I was recieving may have been because @icons wasn't a sprite. But that still doesn't explain why it was telling me I couldn't use []
