Thank you :)

Okay, Ryoku. I finally had the time to re-install it. I have it installed with the warps still warping. I'm not sure what happened my first two installations, but I think it was me accidentally replacing the wrong code. Thanks for the tut, I love it!

@Axis: > are you like saying a costume to look like something but not have stats so you can wear the costume and the armor? Yep :) @cloudsky: > Perhaps you are trying to say you want to change the sprite? > Try [this!](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,68828.0.html) > > It will not save your current sprite and it is not an item but it might suit your needs. > :cheesy: Well, I didn't really want those either. Although, I guess they could be a better choice than paperdolling the costumes. If I don't get anything, I'll check that out and see if I can't get anything. PS, Sorry everyone for being so picky. I honestly did search and couldn't find anything like what I'm wanting. If nothing comes up, then I will take a look at some of the suggestions for doing this instead.

Okay. I already have a new copy. I will install this when I have the time later. I think I just borked it during the installation. It's a great idea and will be a perfect addition to my game :D

@RyokuHasu: > Then how would they take it off? Well, maybe it should take the armor slot, so they can take it off. I wasn't thinking about that. @Medleyy!: > Isn't that just a description of the paperdoll feature..? > > Just use paperdolls. They work exactly the same. I thought about that, but here's why I decided against it(don't get me wrong, if I can't get them added in, I'll use it…): if I want them to change sprites, why should I clutter up my paperdoll folder with images that I have exact copies in my characters folder? I would have 2 copies of each sprite, one in each folder. Another reason is, what if I have a very large sprite and that is the players actual sprite. Then, they put on a costume of a smaller sprite, well, you see the smaller sprite in front of the bigger sprite. The way I described above isn't describing the paperdoll feature. I want to add an item to actually change the sprite, not put something over it.

@RyokuHasu: > O.o … are you using EO 2.0? other that that I have NO idea what you might have done wrong. Sorry. Yeah, I'm using EO 2.0. I think I might have borked it somehow, but I'm not sure where I could have. It's not a stock EO 2.0, if that makes a difference. I'm using Captain Wabbit's Ranged/projectiles script as well, so I overlayed the edits in this tutorial on that, if that might be the problem. Other than the ranged script, it's all stock. ::EDIT:: I tried reinstallation, and I received the same problem. If it's not a compatibility issue with the projectiles script(which, I don't think that's the problem), then I'm thinking I replaced something I shouldn't have. I'm not sure. I'll restore it to a vanilla EO and see if that fixes the problem, and if not, then it's definitely a UCE on my end.

Hello, again :) I'm sorry if I'm annoying anyone, but I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to add costumes to the game. By this I mean that I want a new item type in the editor. When editing it, you can name the item and give it a description and set what sprite you want it to change the user to, and of course have the item image. When the player has the item, they can equip it and it's like armor, only it doesn't take the armor slot. On equip it goes in, saves the players original look somewhere, and then changes their current sprite to the one defined in the costume item. Please, even a general basic nudge would help me, but I can't really figure this out on my own. Also, I do not want the Transformation Spell as I am going to get rid of spells for my game eventually. Costumes are not a necessity for my game, but would be an amazing addition. Please and thank you to anyone who may decide to help me :)

I installed this and I just noticed one thing after I compiled it… All the warps I had no longer work? I had three warps, 1 on map 1(leads to map 15... it's a lift type warp) and 2 on map 15(lift to 1 and path to 14...) and none of the three work. On the attributes, they are all still there in the proper places, they just don't warp. I'm wondering if this is a bug in your code or if it was a bug created by me during installation?

@M: > Lol… > http://www.teamanti.com/rmxp/ Viola! > EDIT:Just press Tilesets o.o Wow! Thank you so much!!! I can't believe that I didn't think to search the pixel artist >.> /head-desk/

@Axis: > i will try > ok i have tried i can't do it sorry Okay, thanks anyways :) If anyone else wishes to, it would be greatly appreciated :cheesy:

::EDIT:: Oh, and I did search here and on Google but I didn't find any I liked. Hi. I'm using EO v2.0 and I'm not very good at spriting (to be honest, I suck) and I was wondering if anyone would be willing to make me some tile sets to match the style in this tile set:  Here's what I would like to have in the tileset: 1\. Graveyard pieces(grave stones from front and side(s), statues, gate/fence, dug up graves, et cetera) 2\. Destroyed city(burning trash cans/barrels, buildings(falling apart and/or not), roads, et cetera) 3\. Abandoned cars 4\. Docks (with water) All of this will be set in modern day of course. Now, I won't be (too) picky because I'm not the one making them and I don't want to cause anyone to much stress. I will be grateful for even one little tile if someone makes it :)

I know that there has already been a tutorial to add a Run/Walk option to the game, but that's not what I'm doing here. I'm adding a tutorial to add an option to make the character either run when shift is held down or walk when shift is held down. It's a very simple tutorial, I know, but I was just testing my skills. I have thoroughly tested this and it does work. Also, I know that I'm new to the forums and to VB6, but I'm a quick learner, and this is what I've learned in just an hour of work. Maybe some of you would know a better way to do this, and if so, please tell me so. I don't mind criticism, as long as it is constructive. :cheesy: This code is all client side. In **frmMain**, 1\. Add a label with a caption of "Speed" in the options menue. 2\. Add an option named optRun, captioned "Run" 3\. Add an option named optWalk, captioned "Walk" In **frmMain**(code), insert: ``` Private Sub optRun_Click() ' If debug mode, handle error then exit out If Options.Debug = 1 Then On Error GoTo errorhandler Options.Speed = 1 ' save to cofig.ini SaveOptions ' Error Handler Exit Sub errorhandler: HandleError "optRun_Click", "frmMain", Err.Number, Err.Description, Err.Source, Err.HelpContext Err.Clear Exit Sub End Sub Private Sub optWalk_Click() ' If debug mode, handle error then exit out If Options.Debug = 1 Then On Error GoTo errorhandler Options.Speed = 0 ' save to cofig.ini SaveOptions ' Error Handler Exit Sub errorhandler: HandleError "optWalk_Click", "frmMain", Err.Number, Err.Description, Err.Source, Err.HelpContext Err.Clear Exit Sub End Sub ``` In **modDatabase**, find ``` Public Sub SaveOptions() ```After _Call PutVar(fileName, "Options", "Speed", Str(Options.Speed))_, add ``` Call PutVar(fileName, "Options", "Speed", Str(Options.Speed)) ``` Next, find _Public Sub LoadOptions()_ After _Options.Debug = 0_, add ``` Options.Speed = 1 ``` In the Else statement, after _Options.Debug = GetVar(fileName, "Options", "Debug")_, add ``` Options.Speed = GetVar(fileName, "Options", "Speed") ``` Then, right before the error handler, add ``` If Options.Speed = 0 Then frmMain.optWalk.Value = True Else frmMain.optRun.Value = True End If ``` In **modTypes**, fine _Private Type OptionsRec_ and after _Debug as Byte_, add ``` Speed as Byte ``` In **modGameLogic**, replace ``` If ShiftDown Then Player(MyIndex).Moving = MOVING_WALKING Else Player(MyIndex).Moving = MOVING_RUNNING End If ```With ``` If Options.Speed = 1 Then If ShiftDown Then Player(MyIndex).Moving = MOVING_RUNNING Else Player(MyIndex).Moving = MOVING_WALKING End If Else If ShiftDown Then Player(MyIndex).Moving = MOVING_WALKING Else Player(MyIndex).Moving = MOVING_RUNNING End If End If ``` > **THIS PART IS OPTIONAL** > If you want to make running faster, you can open up **modConstants** and find > ``` > Public Const RUN_SPEED As Byte = 6 > ``` > I replaced 6 with 10, but you can change it to whatever number you want. After you have made all these edits, save all the files and compile. Open up your client and test it out :) Please leave your feedback and/or constructive criticism so I know if I did anything a really idiotic way :)

I was wondering how do I make a shadow tile? And I don't mean just add grey or black around the object I want the shadow… I mean a true shadow that blends into the ground. For example, if my background transparency is pink, and I have a ground of grass, what do I have to edit in order to make it where I can make a 32x32 tile for a shadow where I just overlay a transparent grey on the pink background(effectively making a darker pink) that when put on the map will make it overlay a transparent shade of grey on top of the grass(or stone, or metal, or whatever it is that I'm trying to shadow). I apologize if I'm rambling or anything. Is this even possible to do? Would I be better off using a dot matrix shadow effect?

Cool! Thanks, Captain Wabbit! I was just wondering… Is there any way to make a "tracking" projectile, like an enchanted arrow or a heat seeking missile? (depending on the game, of course :P ) Because that would be cool.

Okay, thanks. I was just wondering. It wasn't a hassle to just switch them and recompile, I'm just curious. (Then again, isn't that what a coder should be :P )
