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!

Ooops ended up trying out making my own A2 tile page instead of testing doors everywhere. Went well so far I think.
I guess I'm done making a blue squirrel's life difficult for posting new threads on different forums.
That's just for today so don't get used to this, squirrel-ish friend! :p
Got new hard drive, now trying to install the softwares I lost to the dead drive, and more than half of them won't install because they're already installed on the dead drive, and uninstallers won't run because they can't find where their programs are installed. So I take it having a drive die on you screws you in more ways than just data loss. >:\
PC got fixed finally. Back online again. Turns out I have no business trying to self repair pcs because it was getting to like 176F / 80C. Shop installed a totally new cooling system and now it runs fine and is super quiet.
When you're making major progress, but have to stop to go to work.
