Strange emails I have to share with you [Hero's Realm]
author=Craze link=topic=544.msg7218#msg7218 date=1199753980
Now I have to make HR: Eversnow.
God damn you, Great Red Spirit. God damn you.
Excellent! Not even double-digit posts and I'm already hated! ;D
Strange emails I have to share with you [Hero's Realm]
We Did It First screenshot thread
Here's a few screens of me making scripts for RMXP, since I just don't like the originals.
I didn't like the original selectable window, so I redid it. Looks like nothing fancy except that it supports a pointy finger graphic by default and the current selected choice is sortof highlighted. Woooo.
But if there's too much to show (vertically), it creates a scrollbar! The scrollbar eats up some space, so the text has to be shrunk accordingly. So what if its too long? The text will be either cut into two lines which occupies the same vertical space (so its a bigger font and bolded so its easier to read), or if its a single word, it compresses it.
But that's not all folks! You can tell it to use multiple columns for when you have plenty of available (horizontal) space. Still functions as normal, but now with left/right inputs. And this screen shows that the window supports 'nil' options, why I have no idea. It's a solution to a problem that doesn't exist! :D
And this is just three columns, and an option that didn't come with an icon. Woooo.
Now for something completely different. I wasn't entirely happy with the original draw_text function so I further expanded it to support special in-string commaneds. It can change colours, toggle bold and italics, use a different font (which, if it doesn't exist, it defaults to its original), change font size (to a minimum of size 8, which is barely readable and much smaller crashes RMXP), and restore the font to its default value.
(not brought up is the header and footer windows scroll their text if the string is too long, if you have too much money it shows $lots, and that my code for the mini-status window is complete ass and needs to be rewritten+finished, its supposed to show more information if there's room to do so, aka you don't have 4 characters in your party)
Someday I'll get something done with all of this... there's still a few other things to complete for the selection script like anmations for the pointer and disabling input to the window.

The only way this can get better is if someone makes a fan game of Hero's Realm.
Which requires you to finish it. Get to it Kentona!
A really long time ago (back when I was Lord Dragoon on Don's forums), I actually had that happen to me. Someone by the name of Pete B. made The Most Pointless Game Ever 2 who was inspired by my The Most Pointless Game Ever (why I have no idea, TMPGE physically hurts to play). I wish I didn't lose 90% of it back when Windows fucked over one of my harddrives though :'(

Question about RPG maker XP
You also need to include "RGSS102E.dll" in the same base directory as your game (the same one with Game.exe, ect.), otherwise the game won't load.
(Its what I read in the tutorial Ocean posted in the Distribution thread, link to tutorial here.)

Screenshots in C&C: Red Alert
DOSBox can take screenshots of the game in play. (Well, I'd assume so. I can take screenshots of the map editor but I can't get past the CD protection into the game to try it out myself because I'm incredibly lazy)
Sacred S'h'a'd'o'w's aka Illumia
Its Font.default_name for RMXP
Example:
Font.default_name =
If it can't find the first font, it'll automatically move onto the next one. In this case, it won't find NOTFONT so the default font will go to Tahoma (unless that's missing, where it goes to Chicago, and so on)
You can slap it into the Main script (or wherever you have 'begin') and it'll work for all windows.

I need help with font!!!
Alright, here's the same file but in the zip variety.
I never knew that there was an actual bug for 3 lines instead of 4, interesting. I assumed it was just missing that the fourth line was empty because I used to make that mistake.
And thanks for the welcome Kentona ;)

Font Issue
I'm assuming you're getting the horrible looking font where letters run together and it looks like a blind kid made it. If you want to make a new font and put it into your RPG Maker game, I can't help you there.
Download this, and put the msgothi0.ttf and msmincho.ttf files into your Windows/Font directory and see if that fixes the problem.
If it doesn't, try replacing your RPG_RT.exe with the one in the .rar. If that doesn't do it...
4 Line Issue
RM2k(3) supports four lines by default. If you're writing a message and you can't get to the fourth line by pushing Enter, try pushing down. The fourth line likely already exists but it's empty and it looks like you only have three lines.
