RMMV Draw animated walkingChar in custom window??

[dopan]

hi^^ , i was able to draw a not moving singel walking char img into a custom window..

But this had the usual loading issue (not displayed at first)..
and i would preffer the animated version anyway..
(because update/refresh functions will be needed anyway to solve the "loading issue")

can anybody show me how to do this?

i figured it out^^

Spoiler: screenshot

I forgot to mention, this "custom window" is used in the menu, if you wanna use this solution outside of the menu,..
.. you will need to change the "this._actor"-data

this._actor = $gameParty.menuActor();
// if not using this custom window in the menu, pls change the actor data

i will add my code solution into the Spoiler,
but pls Note the Char size is *2
that is made here:
(and can be changed here)

      var dw = 2 * pw;
      var sh = 2 * ph;
// this makes the charsize *2
// can be changed easyly by using other numbers
// or edit the code to not use "dw" & "sh"

Custom Window Code :

Spoiler

function Window_Custom() {
    this.initialize.apply(this, arguments);
}

Window_Custom.prototype = Object.create(Window_Base.prototype);
Window_Custom.prototype.constructor = Window_Custom;

Window_Custom.prototype.initialize = function(x, y, width) {
      this._actor = $gameParty.menuActor();
      var width = this.windowWidth();
      var height = this.windowHeight();
      var x = 145;
      var y = 195;
      this._x = x;
      this._y = y;
      this._updateCounter = 0;
      this._step = 0;
      this._characterName = this._actor.characterName;
      this._characterIndex = this._actor.characterIndex;
      Window_Base.prototype.initialize.call(this, x, y, width, height);
      this.drawActorCharacter(this._actor, x - 112, y - 140);
};

Window_Custom.prototype.update = function() {
      this._updateCounter += 1;
      if (this._updateCounter >= 25) {
          this._step += 1;
          if (this._step === 3) {this._step = -1};
          this.refresh();
          this._updateCounter = 0;
      }
};

Window_Custom.prototype.refresh = function() {
      if (this.contents) {
          this.contents.clear();
          this.drawActorCharacter(this._actor, this._x - 112, this._y - 140);
      }
};

Window_Custom.prototype.windowWidth = function() {
      return 150;
};

Window_Custom.prototype.windowHeight = function() {
      return 155;
};

Window_Custom.prototype.drawActorCharacter = function(actor, x, y) {
      if (this._step === 2) {var step = 0} else {var step = this._step};
      this.drawStepCharacter(actor.characterName(), actor.characterIndex(), x, y, step);
};
 
Window_Custom.prototype.drawStepCharacter = function(characterName, characterIndex, x, y, step) {
      var bitmap = ImageManager.loadCharacter(characterName);
      var big = ImageManager.isBigCharacter(characterName);
      var pw = bitmap.width / (big ? 3 : 12);
      var ph = bitmap.height / (big ? 4 : 8);
      var n = characterIndex;
      var sx = (step * 48) + ((n % 4 * 3 + 1) * pw);
      var sy = (Math.floor(n / 4) * 4) * ph;
      var dw = 2 * pw;
      var sh = 2 * ph;
      this.contents.blt(bitmap, sx, sy, pw, ph, x - pw / 2, y - ph, dw, sh);
};

also the custom Window is very small, xy & width and height,.. should be changed to whatever is needed in own projects

//this will be reported as solved and can be closed .thx

Incase you are looking for the "SV Battler Img" in a window, you can use this solution instead:

AnimatedActorsWindow v1.0 Jeremy Cannady Introduction This script will allow other scripters to place animated actors in any window. Currently the game allows you to draw faces and characters in windows. This script will add the animated battler with any motion to a window and will animate...
