RPG Maker XP Mega Tutorials - Part 3 - Menu Edits

[MrLittletomdj]

@2:44 >> The reason for the "$data_system.words.item" (or equip/skill) is because they're defined in the database under the system tab & can be renamed without the need for script. "$data_system.words.item" is referencing that text box & the word inside it is displayed in the menu.

[BoogityMario]

You have earned yourself a sub =)

[RhythmParadise1]

Um So did you make a tutorial on how to shift the menu around? Like, If i delete the "Steps" menu instead of the "Playtime" menu, how could I shift the playtime mnue down so that theirs room for the new menu buttons??

[RhythmParadise1]

@RhythmParadise1 Oh Nvm! You probably address that in mega tutoria 5 right?? Ugh, im dumb, shoula notice that... But If it isn't then my question is still up ^_^ THX

[marketfreshjenjen]

It works for XP english version. I just did it, everything happened like he said it would. Thanks a lot, this is the best tutorial I've seen! :] I'm just happy I got the variables and switches down @_@ I just started using this 3 days ago. Bah.

[axljacoby]

I couldn't get the new menus to do anything i scanned through the video several times to see if i had missed anything but i got all of it.

[CollapseDev]

@axljacoby - Well thats because you didnt miss anything - I never assigned the new button to do anything hehee - you have to assign what they are to do first - if you are interested in getting the new menu button to do something you should be watching Mega tutorial 6 - the art of the Bonus on my channel - which will help you out further with menus.

wow... are you chiniss?

can you make one with rpg make xp??

there diff programs..... PLEASE

[CollapseDev]

Nope ~!

This is RPG Maker XP

As Far As VX Goes, I Dont Use VX, But VX Uses The Same Language So If You Know How To Edit The Basics Then You Will Be Fine.

I Dont Use The Earlier Versions Of RPG Maker, I Dont Have Anything Against Em - I Just Learnt RPGXP First....

& judging by the lack of commitment nowadays I cant really afford dif tuts.

[InnerMobius]

This isnt regular RMXP though, this is the Japanese version. It doesnt work for the regular.

[CollapseDev]

@InnerMobius Hmmm I dunno - I know there are differances in the script but even in the english version this part is the same last I checked unless you can tell me which part isnt?

[InnerMobius]

Mainly the location of the scripts in the lists.

[swordmasterburner]

ohh man your tutorials are really megatutorials ohhh thanks !_!

[CollapseDev]

Your Welcome !

[CheshAmeoba]

Is there any way to change the text for a menu that's already there? I'd like to change the Items menu name to something different, but not the contents.

[CollapseDev]

Yeah As You Can See If Want To Change The Name Of Items In The Menu I Would Look For "Items" In Scene_Menu - The Writing Should Be In Purple....

[CollapseDev]

Oh Yeah Actually Your Gonna Have To Find Where I Am Editing & Change The Writing In S1 = Or S2 = Or S3 = To Something Like This:

S1 = "Items"

S2 = "Skills"

S3 = "Equip"

Etc....

[CheshAmeoba]

OH I just found out you could change it much easier by going into the database and looking under the "System" tab, in the word column!

Thank you for taking your time to answer me though :3

[CollapseDev]

Hahaha - I Could Have Told You That But You Asked For The Menu, The Options That You Can Change In The Database Arent In There Are They - For Items, Skills?

What Did You Want To Change Anyway?

[CheshAmeoba]

I just wanted to change the name "Item" to something different (not dead set on what I'll be calling it yet.)

[sueperrmann]

is there a script or tut that can make ur allies an

A.I.?

[CollapseDev]

Not Sure, Maybe, But I Havent Seen That So Far....

[justin900]

hey how can i put images after the dialogue?i mean after the text?

[CollapseDev]

There Are x & y Co-ordinates That Change Where An Image Is Displayed But To Load One Requires A Few Lines Of Code Hehe....But I Will Cover Images In Another Video!

[CollapseDev]

Yes, Ive Already Done That But I Have Not Explained, I Guess I Will Later.

[adam000133]

I know this is a bit of a dumb question but how do i bring up the menu lol :)

[CollapseDev]

If You Mean The Menu In - Game, You Press The Escape Button Unless You Changed The Button Layout.

[BeatEmorBurnEm]

Extremely useful, extremely easy to follow. Thanks for contributing to the game making community!!

[CollapseDev]

Your Welcome!

[Chicoryblue]

Nice! Thanks for this one. ^-^

[flameingfox2]

how do you make a new scene for the buttons I'd really like to know

[CollapseDev]

Thats Actually Part Of The Series But Its A Bit Advanced - So Before I Get Into New Scenes I Will Need To Do A Bit Of Practice Into Breaking Down That Tutorial To The Simplest You Can Have.

[boots1622fan]

on accident i rearranged the script order and now it won't let me play -_- that's what you get when you try using XP scripts with VX

[CollapseDev]

Hehe Well As Long As Ya Used A New Game To Experiment With Thats Ok, VX Scripts Are Very Similar To Xp - They Both Use Ruby & Their Layout Is The Same - All You Got To Do Is Find The Right Parts To Edit & You Should Be Fine, But Before Editing Major Areas Of The Script - You Should Probably Learn To Script More - But Hey I Learned Quite A Bit Through - Trial & Error I Guess So Yeah - Just Remember These Are For XP But That Does Not Mean They Are Not For VX.

[CollapseDev]

Sorry Bout Tha' But Yea' They Are Done Hehe!

[divick630]

Yeah, those anotations are going to be pretty important. I appreciate the video though, I have a lot of trouble with script editing
