Change class In-game, without plug-in

[Twenty]

Hi guys,


so first things first, i looked into this forum but i didn't found what i looked for.


So without any plugin i wanna set npc who grants you to change class. I tried by myself, i've made choice between class etc, but when i choose the one i want, it doesn't change the class, and the picture of the new one and, char preset for that class either...

You don't need any plugin for that, that can be done with the simple event commands to change class.


If that didn't work for you, then you made some mistakes in the event.


Please post a screenshot of your class changer event, so that we can see where you made your mistake and correct it for you.

trying to turn my game in english first (i'm french so you won't understand) anytips how to do it by the way ? Because i checked in the internet and nothing helped me ...

unless you're on steam, the process of changing the editor language isn't easy and I don't know it myself.


On steam simply open the program properties to change the language.


However, most of the time we can identify the problem even if the screenshot is in a different language, because there are only a limited number of event commands.

So you have first: do you wanna be a witch then choice between yes and no


if yes change into witch, hero.


And it doesnt change the appearence of my char and its class either ...

Appearance (sprites) are a property of the actor, NOT of the class - they can never change with the class. You'll need a different event command in addition to that class change to change the sprites for the actor.


That said, the command you used changes the class of the actor named "Sorciere" to the class "Hero". Is that the actor you want to change the class for? Is that actor even in your party? Because usually if the command fails, that means that that actor is either not the one you think it is, or is not even included in your party yet.

Actually i've made a new class that called "sorcière" and a new actor (with the appearence i want for the "sorcière") so what should the event look like?

 

[Andar]

Then you need to change the party members, not the class. Remove the original actor from the party and add the new one to it.


However, be warned that this changes the entire actor - if you try that after playing a while, the EXP will belong to the original actor and not the new one (you'll need several control variable commands and change exp commands to transfer the correct amount of experience).


That is because for the game engine, you're not changing class (and keeping the rest), you're changing the actor that is used in the party.

is there any way to change the class and actor (skin) for the same characters ?


PS: i tried yanfly plugin don't want change class in menu i want it from npc or as introduction ingame

As I said above, everything of an actor in the database can be changed by event commands - class, name, face, sprite, and so on.


It just can't be done in a single command, you need one command for each of the parts.


If you're this new to eventing, I suggest you follow the link to the starting point in my signature and work through the tutorials listed there, that should get you familiar with the different event commands.


Oh, and please try to keep to the namings common in the community - a lot of the confusion at the beginning of this topic comes from you using the wrong words.


there is no "skin", it is called sprite (or face) depending on where it is displayed. What you call the character is the actor in the RM community, and so on.
