Gender Functions

Script by Mr. Bubble

 

 

This is a simple script that provides developers the option to define the gender of Actors and Enemies in their game. With the use of script calls and new methods, this opens up a variety of options for eventers and scripters alike.

I can even make a bisexual gender using this script!

 

Anyways... I can see its usefulness for recruiting party members... like in Suikoden, where a Star of Destiny can only be recruited when all your party members are female. ;3

Wonderful!

 

Have you considered maybe even gender specific equips, Bubz?

[Nicke 151]

Great

Sorry Bubbles, my head was in the sewer...I did manage to find it but now it stinks. The name "Gender Functions" suits the script well. I've already thought of several brilliant uses for the script. Not to mention the time its gonna save me.

A very nice script really!

 

 

But isn't there a way to assign a gender to an actor via script call? If I want, for example, for the player to build a character, I'd still need to create a male and a female template, because if I create a male and the player wants a female character, there's no possibility to change it mid-game.

gender is public instance variable in RPG::Actor and RPG::Enemy.

 

$data_actors[actor_id].gender = n

 

Where n is the numerical gender value.

Whoaa very useful script mr. bubble.

Never tought having this script before. Thanks anyway.

Same concept could be applied to things such as alignment, age, element, whatever. That is the beautify of the "Script" event command; you don't need big scripts for simple functions. It's when you start wanting custom windows, custom scenes, little replicas of other games' main systems... meh, I stop ranting on Bubbles' thread now.

How do I add other genders, like 'Herm', 'Shemale', etc to it, please tell me?

[Legion 0]

Is there anyway we can get an update for this to include script calls that let a script change the gender for Actors or Enemies? I'm sure I'm not the only one trying to find something like this. No offense, but as they are now, the functions are rather limited since a script has no way to change gender.

 

As stated in an earlier post, the only way to let a player choose the gender of a character is to go through a lot of hassle with multiple templates and stuff. When all we really need is a script call to change it.

 

It would also allow you to do things with a character, such as in Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, with the Sheik(male)/Zelda(female) plotline. Which would be nice.

 

If I knew more about scripting I'd attempt to hack it myself. I know it's possible after looking at other scripts. Just not how to write it personally.

Thank you !

In point of fact, and even though that comment is from two and a half years ago, I must correct an errant idea. Your "bisexuality" is not related to the biological/physiological sex of a person; it is a matter of a mental sexuality choice. So in this sense, that is wrong, at least because I would suppose Mr. Bubble did not mean to script a sexuality system for RPG Maker.

 

You can, however, script and event such sexuality choices on your own ... if your game features such activity....

Hello Mr. Bubbles, I stumpled upon this scripts today and I think they are amazing.

 

I have a bug that doesn't seem to go away.

 

Whenever I make a male character male with notetags and / or $data_actors[actor_id].gender = 1

 

It still shows up genderless with script calls for leader_male and etc.

 

What do you suggest I do?

 

Also this works for females. I don't think gender likes it to be assigned to one. 

 

Here's a couple of pictures from my game:

end

Let me know what you think I shoud do.

 

Thank you for your time.

Yay! This is awesome. Makes my event scripting for a LGBT friendly Romance game much more easy. Thanks!

[Lightmaker2014 2]

This could be useful down the road because my main female is bi. Also because the gender specific equips and gender specific /race specific stat differences I need. I wonder if I can find one of these scripts to go that extra mile though.

[Ariel Schnee 7]

This is a great script!

 

I've modified this script and your other gender one to where they now recognize 'herm' and 'shemale' genders as well as common ones.

 

Send me a pm if you want to see them anytime in the coming future.
