Kai Monkey's Character Creation with Races (Version 1.1!)

[kai salmonkey 17]

Kai Monkey's Character Creation!

 

Introduction

It's been a long time since I opened an RPGmaker, but when I saw Ace had arrived it seemed to fix every single complaint I ever had with VX. So impressed was I with Ace I decided to take up scripting again. So 24 hours later my Character creation script was born.

 

I tried to keep the Race System as open ended as possible. I achieved this by having the Race simply put in a Game Variable (By Default 25) and nothing else. This means by default all Races do is act as Categories for the Appearances. However as that Game Variable can checked by events, it is not at all difficult for an array to check that Game Variable and, say, change the actors stats accordingly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Config

The config is quite simple, and most of it is explained in the Script's config section itself.

 

However it is very important that when you add this script to a project you follow the following intructions:

1)Ensure that the default starting character has no name, and no character or face image

2) Make a new map, which is entirely black and has the player's starting position on it. On this map create an autorun event like so:

a)use the Advanced -> Script action and type:

SceneManager.call(Scene_CharacterCreation)

b)Then change SelfSwitch A to ON

c)Create a new event page, and ensure that that is also set to the AutoRun trigger. On this page you can run the Process Name Input event action

d (Optional)Then using an conditional branch run any other effects you only want to effect certain races, by checking the Variable defined in the main config (By default 25).

e) Transfer the player to the original starting position.

 

 

The Script

Version History

0.9: Initial Release, Races and Classes unlimted, Appearances per class limited to 6

1.0: Lifted Appearance limit.

1.1: Classes banned for certain races

 

Finally

 

Finally please give credit to Kaimonkey if you use this script. This is a basic system, and if more needs to be added just make a suggestion below. Additionally if the config instructions are not that easy to read I will try and rewrite them, but I think they are ok for now.

 

Thanks, Kaimonkey

It's sweet .. Thanks for share!

[LordBagardo 2]

Just tested it, this is fantastic! Very simple in terms of choices, but I think that's what makes it so effective. Thanks Kai, I'll definitely be using this

[Knightmare 170]

I was looking for a way to make the character creation aspect in my game nicer, this will do it, thanks Kai!

[xmartyr7 45]

Don't let CopperCab see that you called the red-haired guy a ginger. Nice script though!

[Nohta 15]

Hmm... I might be able to do a custom character thing in my project now.

 

I'll have to keep this script on my radar.

[BlackRaven117 0]

Great script! Really reminds me of The Elder Scrolls games. Maybe I will make a fangame because of this!

[LordBagardo 2]

Ah, I've hit an error message. It's only started happening just now, but I've tested with all other scripts removed and even in a fresh project and for some reason it doesn't work. Any light you can shed on the problem would be much appreciated!

As far as I can tell this must have been caused by an error you made copy and pasting the script, or editing it. Have you done any config? If so post the actual script that you've got in your project, including config and I'll try and sort it out.

Thanks, Kaimonkey

Okay, here it is:

 

Races = Array.new
RaceAppearanceNames = Array.new
RaceFaceImage = Array.new
RaceFaceIndex = Array.new
RaceChara = Array.new
RaceIndex = Array.new
#############CONFIG######################
#Here list all the names of all races in the game
# Example:
# Races = ["Human","Elf","Half Dwarf"]
# Creates three races, called Human, Elf and Half Dwarf
Races = ["Human", "Fairie", "Cave Fairie", "Half Dwarf"]
#Which race the player chooses will be stored in a variable, which is defined
#below. This can be used later create effects that only affect, say, Dwarves,
#such as giving them the ability to use heavy armour, regardless of class.
#This can be acheived by having an event check that array, then run actions accordingly
RaceVariable = 1
#The default is to store the Race in variable 25. By default this will mean that
#if the player is human that varible will be 1, 2 if an elf, and 3 if a Half Dwarf.
#
#Then for each race create a module for showing the Appearance(s)
#Example:
#RaceAppearanceNames << ["Female","Male"]
#RaceFaceImage << ["Actor1.png","Actor1.png"]
#RaceFaceIndex << [1,2]
#RaceChara << ["Actor1.png","Actor1.png"]
#RaceIndex << [1,2]
#
#The first row shows that the first race we typed in at the start has two
#different Appearances. One called Female, one called Male.
#The second row shows the File name for that appearances face. So both Male and
#Female humans use Actor1.png
#The third row shows which face in the file to use, as each image has 8 faces,
#so female humans use the first face in the Actor1.png Image, and Males use the
#second image.
#
#The fourth and fifth line work like the Faces, appart from for defining the
#Character image that is seen walking around the screen. In the example above
#both Male and Female humans have characters to match their faces.
#
#For each race you defined at the start, copy paste these five lines, and customize
#as you wish.
#Race 1:

Thanks for taking the time to help, by the way. I really appreciate it

Oh, and I should add that I haven't changed the facesets yet, just copied them to each race, perhaps that's the problem?

[Tammsyn 8]

looks good but is there a way to make this allow you to set which classes can be chosen?

[kai salmonkey 17]

Somehow the script got corrupted, but I've fixed it now. It might be to do with how RPGMakerVXAce.net treats things within Code Tags...#

 

Either way here it is:

If it continues to not work then I'll find away to get the code to you without it corrupting.

Thanks, Kaimonkey

 

 

EDIT: Also I noticed that for some races you have only one face, but four characters.

Each face is allocated to a character, so if they all have the same face then you must enter that face FOUR times.

Alright, thanks again Kaimonkey. I'll give it another go and report back to you, lol.

 

Edit: Strange, I still get the same message... is there anything I could do involving the code tags like what you mentioned before? Again, thanks for all the help you're giving me, lol. I can't script to save my life

Also, I'll check those faces again. A silly mistake on my half!

Okay, I've attached it as a text document. Try now

[LordBagardo 2]

That did it! Phew, must have been something to do with the code brackets after all...

Anyway, thanks yet again Kaimonkey. Be sure that you'll get your full credit in my game

Ok, when it's completely working can I get a screenshot to add to the OP? Thanks, Kaimonkey

looks good but is there a way to make this allow you to set which classes can be chosen?

Actually, I'm working on that now, I'll add it if anyone else expresses an interest.

[LordBagardo 2]

Sure, here you go. The classes aren't quite finished yet but I think you get the picture of what's going on

that would be kool

I'd be interested in this function/feature as well for what I plan to do with this script. All of my characters have classes that are unique to them for various reasons, so being able to set which classes can be chosen for the one created character would save me a lot of headache.

This is a nice script. I was wondering if it was possible to do this with multiple characters? If so how?

I would definitely be interested in this.

 

 

Hmm, I just plugged this script in and went with it. I mean, I did change the variable to 1 instead of 25 (because I'm starting a new project with it) but that's the only difference? And yet, the appearance icons are covering up the first letter or two of the appearance name. This is sorta bothersome, but nothing ridiculously important.

Here's a screenie.

Sorry about that. Totally forgot I'd posted here, and I can't figure out how to delete the damn doubled post. :/

Edited April 6, 2012 by Ehren Rivers

[kai salmonkey 17]

Argh, that is not a problem with my script, but I think a problem with the way RPGmakerVxAce.net stores code. From now on the script will come as a TXT document...

 

But this that said and done I'd like to present version 1.1, with Class Specific Race Support, and without the icons covering the appearance names.

If there are any bugs, don't be afraid to post them

[Akrium 10]

Amazing script, Keep up the good work bro.

[dabum 0]

Nvm, got it working, great script!
