Eli Choice Pictures - Show different pictures for each choice!

[Eliaquim]

Hey, I appreciate your support very much!
I tried everything but still not working somehow...
First of all, I updated all your plugins and tried to change their position as well. I tested them in almost every line, but nothing.
Then I left only yours on, but ChoicePicture still didn't work. I even changed their position while while leaving only yours on.
But nothing worked, so I guess it's not a conflict issue, isn't it?
I'm really sorry for wasting your time with these problems, but I really love your plugins and ChoicePicture would be one of the main features of my project
Is there anything else I could do? Otherwise, I'll have to simply leave this plugin aside and find other ways
Thanks again.

Hi there!
No need to be sorry, let's make it work!

Let me just ask one more thing:
On the Choice Pictures plugin parameters, there is only one parameter that you must setup a Switch ID.
When this switch is ON the plugin will be enabled. When this switch is OFF the plugin will be disabled.
Did you turn that switch ON?


In case you have, and it still doens't work, I made a sample project for you to take a look how it works:

Microsoft OneDrive - Access files anywhere. Create docs with free Office Online.

Store photos and docs online. Access them from any PC, Mac or phone. Create and work together on Word, Excel or PowerPoint documents.

My god, now it seems to work!
I had that switch to OFF, my bad Nonetheless, while playtesting it kept crashing, untill I noticed that not all field in the parameters were filled (scale, tint, and so on). Maybe it was that to cause the crashes.
Now it works, THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH.
You were very supportive to somebody unknown like me! Thanks again.
I wish you all the best!
(I'll let you know if there are some other issues, but I don't think so)

Haha!! It's fine about the switch! I could have asked you before too xD

I know what you mean, but you are not an unknown. I know there is somebody "behind the screen", and I'm glad I manage to help you out!

If you have any issue, let me know!! ^^

Version 5.0.2 - 05/17/2022

• Fixed a bug that the plugin commands are not accepting self variables from Eli Self Variables.
• Some performance improvements on the plugin command execution.

Hello Eliaquim, I've encountered a problem while using your plugin.
Basically, when I use the plugin command "setup choice picture" and set every parameter no animation shows and both pictures are stuck on the screen.



This is how I set things up:
1:


2 (unselect parameter):


3(select parameter):


Order of plugins:


I've set the required switch to 4 and turned it on. Aside from that, I tried to disable all plugins but yours and move it around, and nothing.

Hi there!

They are not working because your Unselect and Select parameter are equal. They have the same coordinate positions, the same everything.

Spoiler: unselect/select

May help you think that:

• The Unselect parameter is the original position of the picture.
• The Select parameter is the destination position of the picture.

So, if you want the picture to come out of the screen, for example, you put the coordinates of the Unselect to be out of the screen.
And the coordinates under Select, inside the screen.

is it possible to show 3 random image choices with captions from a large list? think a reward from a rougelike card game.

I haven't used this plugin but if it's taking an image name as one of the inputs you could declare a new variable array containing the names of the possible images then randomly pick an index from the array. Store that result in a variable then put in that variable name where the picture name argument in the plugin goes

var imagePool = ['Actor1_1', 'Actor2_1', 'Actor3_1'];
var randomIndex = Math.floor(Math.random() * imagePool.length);
$gameVariables.setValue(15, imagePool[randomIndex]);

That will set Control Variable 15 to one of the images defined in imagePool
Then put $gameVariables.value(15) where you would put the file name in the plugin parameter

Hi!
Yes, it is possible!
The @AquaEcho is some of the answer:

Store that result in a variable then put in that variable name where the picture name argument in the plugin goes

var randomIndex = Math.floor(Math.random() * imagePool.length);
$gameVariables.setValue(15, imagePool[randomIndex]);

That will set Control Variable 15 to one of the images defined in imagePool
Then put $gameVariables.value(15) where you would put the file name in the plugin parameter

Because, on the plugin commands you can use either variables or formulas. If you take a look at my sample project on itch io, there is an example of this:


If you can insert variables or formulas, then is just a matter of you create your own way of randomizing the id and name of the pictures ^^
