Requires a know-how kinda' guy about RPG Maker 2k3
« on: November 24, 2008, 06:11:58 AM »
Hey hey!
Me again, anyway, I was browsing a random resource site, when I noticed somthing about templates and icons, making is possible so have, say, symbols next to weapons at a shop, or the menu of equippment in your menus, I.E; When you buy weapons, it would say, "Broad Sword" and show a picture of a sword next to it, Now, I downloaded a bunch, but I couldent upload any of them, that's when I realized things might be more complicated than I thought they where going to be...
Anyone here good at this kinda' stuff?

Those would be glyphs my friend. They are symbols that appear in messages by typing a special code. For example, if you wanted to have your broad sword have a sword by it, for the item name you would type in "$A Brod Sword" and in the game, the "$A" would show up as a sword. This also works in messages, good for signs as you can have arrows that point in various directions. Here is an official list from RM2K3's help file(kinda long, so I put it in a spoiler to evade clutter/page enlongating):

   $V: Scorpio
   $W: Sagittarius
   $X: Capricorn   
   $Y: Aquarius   
   $Z: Pisces

Ahhh, thank you, is that all there is for inventory symbols? Are there Axe, Bow, Dagger, Boomerang symbols? Or a bag of money or somthing for items? If that is it, then that's fine, i'll just look into that Glyph Pack you mentioned, but if their is more, it would be very appreciated if I could receive it, please and thank you!

You cant add more glyphs, but you can replace the current ones. All you really need is paint and a resource hacker program. Theres tuts on the net, but i cant be fucked to find them at the moment.
