[VXACE] [Yanfly:Aftermath] Request for Language-variable

[sebulon]

Hi, I am using the Yanfly Engine Ace - Victory Aftermath v1.04

I want to translate my chosen victory quotes. Depending on the game's variable 10 (0 = GER, 1 = ENG, ...), I'd like to give different victory quotes.
I figured, it would be easiest to create
VICTORY_QUOTES for var10 = 0 and VICTORY_QUOTES_ENG for var10 = 1, and so on.

Now I'm looking for a way to rescript the part where the quotes are being grapped.
I figure that happens around line 365
So my thought was something along the lines of:

if $game_variables[10] = 0 then
quotes = ...::VICTORY_QUOTES
end;
if $game_variables[10] = 1 then
quotes = ...::VICTORY_QUOTES_ENG
end;

Doesn't work, though. I'd be happy for some advice ...
Kind regards!

'Scripts' is where people who have written completed scripts that they want to share with others can post them.
[move]RGSSx Script Support[/move]
Please edit your opening post to remove Yanfly's script. His terms expressly forbid reposting of any of his scripts. Instead give a link to the web page where that script can be found.

Thanks.

Problem with that is, the victory quotes are loaded when the game starts up.
For example, you start a new game. The game would load all database, read notetag. And the victory quotes are saved, and it wont change. Simply changing variable wont refresh the loaded victory quotes. You have to refresh it.

However, in my game, I managed to create dual language that change the victory quotes. But it also offers some features that you might not want / request it. I could give you the script for you to learn, but how far you understand Ruby/RGSS3? Because my script structure is kinda unusual and I believe some people could have a hard time reading it.

Short of rewriting the script to have it check for a variable and load notetags based on what the variable is set to, I would maybe suggest that you have multiple actors, and when the player requests german then you specify a specific set of characters to control, when they select english a different set.
So you would basically have two of every character (if you only had english and german) each one would then have their victory quotes written as per the script in the language for the character.

The rewriting of the script would have to done by adding options for the other languages

module YEA
  module REGEXP
  module BASEITEM
    
    NEW_QUOTE = /\[(?:NEW_QUOTE|new quote)\]/i
    
    WIN_QUOTE_ON    = /<(?:WIN_QUOTES|win quote|win quotes)>/i
    WIN_QUOTE_OFF   = /<\/(?:WIN_QUOTES|win quote|win quotes)>/i

    WIN_QUOTE_GER_ON    = /<(?:WIN_QUOTES_GER|win quote ger|win quotes ger)>/i
    WIN_QUOTE_GER_OFF   = /<\/(?:WIN_QUOTES_GER|win quote ger|win quotes ger)>/i

    LEVEL_QUOTE_ON  = /<(?:LEVEL_QUOTES|level quote|level quotes)>/i
    LEVEL_QUOTE_OFF = /<\/(?:LEVEL_QUOTES|level quote|level quotes)>/i
    DROPS_QUOTE_ON  = /<(?:DROPS_QUOTES|drops quote|drops quotes)>/i
    DROPS_QUOTE_OFF = /<\/(?:DROPS_QUOTES|drops quote|drops quotes)>/i
    
  end # BASEITEM
  end # REGEXP
end # YEA

class RPG::BaseItem
 
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # public instance variables
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  attr_accessor :win_quotes
  attr_accessor :level_quotes
  attr_accessor :drops_quotes

  attr_accessor :win_quotes_ger
  attr_accessor :level_quotes_ger
  attr_accessor :drops_quotes_ger
 
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # common cache: load_notetags_va
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def load_notetags_va
    @win_quotes_ger = [""]
    @level_quotes_ger = [""]
    @drops_quotes_ger = [""]

    @win_quotes = [""]
    @level_quotes = [""]
    @drops_quotes = [""]
    @victory_quote_type = nil
    #---
    self.note.split(/[\r\n]+/).each { |line|
      case line
      #---
     if $game_variables[xx] = 0
      when YEA::REGEXP::BASEITEM::WIN_QUOTE_ON
        @victory_quote_type = :win_quote_ger

etc...

Haven't tried this, but in my mind it is the way it would have to go. Others that know more about ruby could maybe provide a better solution.

Hi, TheoAllen! I'd like to have a look at your script for sure. Not an experienced scriptkid but I dabble and more things to learn is always good.

I have been using the Language File System Version 1.4.1 by DerTraveler in order to create external files to read the appropriate dialoges from. They do not need to refresh, somehow ... so I hoped that there would be a possibility with said Yanfly-Script.
hmm.

So you would basically have two of every character (if you only had english and german) each one would then have their victory quotes written as per the script in the language for the character.

Hi, Roninator2 ... I'll think about that.

Thank you both!

Firstly, you need to have this https://www.rpgmakercentral.com/topic/23744-yea-dynamic-victory-aftermath-addon/
It's my script that allows you to have victory quotes based on condition. Also you can change the face. Up to this point, you can actually use that feature for dual language. For example, making the quotes appear when a variable has a certain value.

If, however you decide to use the condition feature for something else and you ended up having too many quotes, and you want an easy replacement. Use this https://github.com/theoallen/RGSS3/blob/master/Untranslated/Dual VA.rb

The script above was never made in public though, and it only support 2 languages so far, but if you can write a script, feel free to modify my code. But before you do that, try to understand my code. Ask me anything about it.

That was swift and helpful! I used TheoAllen's Addon and it works like a charm!
