Hi, I'm making a game where there's only one playable character and it's actually more puzzle/adventure oriented, so I thought it would be nice to simplify the menu since most of it isn't needed.

So, I replaced the Window_MenuStatus for the Window_Status, made the commands horizontal, removed most of the commands, put the on top with the gold window too. Overall it already looks simple and nice enough, but I kind of want to change the face graphic of the character for a full body picture. I already identified the code I would have to change:

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------  # * Draw Block 2  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------  def draw_block2(y)    draw_actor_face(@actor, 8, y)    draw_basic_info(136, y)     endObviously I have to replace draw_actor_face for something else, that's what I'm not so sure about. I admit, I don't know much about syntax, I've managed to make all changes because I studied programming and I guess it's easier for me to spot what does what, etc. I was reading the help file and other modules and I guess I should use sprites or bitmaps and it should be easy since it's only one character so I can point the code to an specific image on the pictures folder. So basically, the question is how I do that?

And yes, I know I have to study the syntax, etc, it's the plan, but I'm asking so I can make this little change without having to stop to study who knows for how long =P

Thanks in advance for any help!

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
time for a new avatar :)
