Character Faces

[paulkadots]

I'm a Total Newbie here so...do you guys have any idea on how to like put face graphics in show text if you have two genders in your game?

PLEASE HELP...

so let me get this straight in the beginning of ur game ur able to choose boy or girl? 

and u want to know the easiest way to let the game reconize that u have selected the boy or girl then choose the graphic at which gender u chose.

I did this before.  Without a script, it requires variables.  It was easy enough to do, just confusing to keep track of.  I'll post the RAR with the project I was working on.  It had these features all done with events at the very beginning of the game:

- Gender Choice

- Sexual Orientation (Homo/Hetero/Bi)

- Hair Color

- Name Input

Based on the choices you made with gender and sexual orientation, the NPC's in various areas and your Lord/Lady would be changed appropriately.  I still plan on making this into a very short game, but I'll post it for anyone to follow what was done.  The eventing is commented as well!

I mean.......If you have 2 gender selection how would you put a picture...

Well, during your gender selection, turn on a switch for if male, and a switch for if female. That's two switches. Now that you have these two switches, you can make different dialogue depending on the player's gender. You use a conditional branch with this, that checks if that switch is on, then show the appropriate text with the correct face.


If you don't know what conditional branches are, you still have a lot left to learn. So please visit our tutorial forum and try out some beginner tutorials, specifically about switches.

Uhhhmmm.....I've been Reading Forums,Blogs and Tutorials all day...and my eye hurts ...so can you just make a step by step tutorial (sorry...i'm just so tired right now...)

 

[Celianna]

Paulkadots don't double, or even triple post. Edit your previous post if you've got something else to add.


I'm not going to write you a personal tutorial on how to use conditional branches. The link I sent you should introduce you to them, you should actually take the time to follow it step by step.

Ok (sorry for the bother)
