Hi, there!

I'm just wondering if there is a way of changing the Actor Graphic and Battler separately (Without affecting one another). Because the regular approach is to "Change Actor Images" through an event as seen below.

But what I'd like to do is to, again, change the Image in the "Character" OR the "SV Battler", without having to pick both. Is there any way of doing this via eventing or plugin?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, there is a way. I'm glad I could answer the question you asked. ;)

Script command.

JavaScript:
[actor].setCharacterImage(filename, index);
[actor].setFaceImage(filename, index);
[actor].setBattlerImage(filename);
Genius!
Wow, that was super fast! Thanks a lot, Trihan. Blessings to you. :rwink:

You could also, of course, use the event command and only choose a different image for the one you want to change.

But if you're doing some kind of variable system where one can change independently of the other and you don't necessarily know which it's going to be at the time, the script call is the best way.

Yay! That's exactly what I want to do, the second one. The script calls were a perfect solution.

Thanks!

Don’t forget to catch Advent Day #3 compiled right here! Hmm. Let’s make today’s question…what is your favorite dish served at your holiday dinner?
All of the male sprites in New Dawn for the are built off of the third sprite I ever made on top of the first sprite base I made nearly a year ago, and now I'm making the female sprite base, and just by virtue of the amount of elapsed time and the number of sprites I've made since then, I think I'm going to have to revise all of my male sprites at some point.
