What would the best way to go about this be?

Hi everyone, I'm looking to make a game, and am stuck on a character generation system.

What i want to do is have a bunch of choosible sprites without any clothes, just hair, eyes, and body (Of course, underwear), as I'm going to use a composite graphics script with armor.

Theres a few ways I can think of doing this-

1. Making a bunch of different sprites in the sprite generator, then use a character/sprite picker script/eventing to let the player coose thier skin/hair/eyes.

The problem with this is the amount of combination I would need to make to make people happy, and it would be very tedious.

2. Use the script found here just for character creation (http://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?/topic/5775-composite-characters-in-game-character-creation/)

The problem with this is I'm pretty horrible with scripts, and can't make sense of how to operate that script.

So what I am looking for I guess is a way to let the player choose just a base, hair/color, and eye color, and perhaps things liek scars/tatoos for thier character. Does anyone know of a good, and easy(er) way to do this?

Thanks, Owa.

I've moved this thread to RGSSx Script Support. Please be sure to post your threads in the correct forum next time. Thank you.


You DEFINITELY don't want to be creating sprites for every possible combination.


If you need help with a script, just make a thread in RGSSx Script Support (which is where I've just moved this one to) and say what your problem is, and provide a link to the script.


I don't have time to go into that one now, but hopefully someone will be along who will be able to give you a hand with it.

Or ask on that scripts thread.

Well if I came down to it, I'd rather not use that script. It's used for alot more than character creation it seems.I think I'll make a post in Script requests.
