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!

Damn. We’ve gotten so close to 0 reports, 0 approvals a few times over the past couple weeks. Does it matter? No. Is it realistic. No? Do I rely on your reports and want everyone to keep posting. Yes. Do I 100% games? …sigh… Yes.

Ah yes, all three of my moods all at once.
Here's a tutorial I did on how I made my Leonardo A.I.-assisted artworks for my game's recent update. :rhappy:

Found some expired fireworks in garbage today. I wonder if they still work.
