This is a locked, multi-post thread from Creation Asylum. Archived here to prevent its loss.
No support is given. If you are the owner of the thread, please contact administration.
This is a resource which I hope to develope to the point it is used... A lot. (wishful thinking)
At the moment what it does is allow you to create scenes, while only having to initialize the objects in the scene and writing the seperate update methods. (for interaction)
Don't forget to make the scene a sub-class of Scene_Base, ie - (class Scene_Name < Scene_Base)
In the future I hope to include introduction animation methods and closing animation methods, as well as a variety of other methods to make writing scenes easier.
The only real difference, is that when you create an object in a scene, instead of doing -
Code:
@playtime_window = Window_PlayTime.new
You'd do -
Code:
@objects['time'] = Window_PlayTime.new
And when refering to the object, you'd obviously use -
@objects['time']
as opposed to the prior.
You can also play music in the scene, simply by adding -
Code:
super('Song Name Here')
Into the scenes initialize method.
Example -
Rewritten_Scene_Menu
Code:
#==============================================================================
# ** Scene_Menu
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# This class performs menu screen processing.
#==============================================================================
class Scene_Menu < Scene_Base
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Object Initialization
# menu_index : command cursor's initial position
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def initialize(menu_index = 0)
@menu_index = menu_index
super('015-Theme04')
end
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Main Processing
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def main
# Make command window
s1 = $data_system.words.item
s2 = $data_system.words.skill
s3 = $data_system.words.equip
s4 = "Status"
s5 = "Save"
s6 = "End Game"
@objects['command'] = Window_Command.new(160, [s1, s2, s3, s4, s5, s6])
@objects['command'].index = @menu_index
# If number of party members is 0
if $game_party.actors.size == 0
# Disable items, skills, equipment, and status
@objects['command'].disable_item(0)
@objects['command'].disable_item(1)

# If save is forbidden

# Disable save

end
# Make play time window
@objects['time'] = Window_PlayTime.new
@objects['time'].x = 0
