try updating your graphics driver, I remember a time when I had a fresh install of windows xp with no graphics driver installed, and I faced same issues like this as it was running on-board graphics and rpg maker xp didn't seem to like that, even when I set resolution to max

this is the only thing I have ever seen around that sounds something like what you want http://forum.chaos-project.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=8701052108fcf7cf7330cd1fae16c62c&topic=9670.0 however its only an icon that is displayed above interact-able events

thanks guys, like I said I have only used unity a little, but as I have programmed in c#, which is one of the main languages unity uses, I am pretty comfortable using unity with what I know, but ill probably play around with it some more before making any tutorials for it, I can start making tutorials for straight up programming a game in c# and java though, as my knowledge is some what extensive now on those topics, ill defiantly work with Unity some more though so I can make some content relating to that, as it is a great engine. @Marked, no i'm not from New Zealand, my parents emigrated out there about 6 years ago now, and I originally went out there on a temporary resident visa, that I got under my parents residency, but decided i'm too young to be putting routes down yet, and decided to start Uni over here in England as I can get the most benefit been a UK citizen, but i had a great time while over there, they live in New Plymouth so I only visited the north island, but if i was to go back I would probably visit the south as that is uncharted territory as of yet :) anyway there won't be a sudden influx of content from me, as my second semester begins tomorrow, but in my spare time ill start composing some content I can use for tutorials and go from there, also ill defiantly play around with the tutorials section for publishing stuff there, also maybe a category for straight up programming could be added? as a lot of the stuff I would cover is programming a game with java using opengl etc. edit: also how about maybe adding like a chapter system for tutorials, so say I start making tutorials for programming in java, all the tutorials would extend onto each other, like building it in steps, that would make it easier for structuring stuff like that, but not sure how much it would infringe onto the current system, maybe the system could be a bit like how a forum page works, where each page of the topic is a chapter in the tutorial

Hey there fellow Game Makers, i'm sure some people recognize me, and for those who don't, Hello :) I haven't been here in a while as iv had a lot of stuff going on in life over the last year, I started University back in September, and was out in New Zealand for about a year and a half before that visiting family, and did some travelling too, so ye iv had a lot on with moving back to the UK and getting settled in at University, life be crazy sometimes! anyway just wanted to let people know that i'm kicking around and hope to put some input into the community, this was one of the first places I started out when I started game development with RPG Maker, and probably wouldn't have had the drive to end up in the position I am in today if it wasn't for the help of some off the members here teaching me the basics. I have moved away from the RPG Makers now as I do find them limiting in the direction I want to go with developing games, I have mainly been focusing on my programming skills, making games from scratch, and have learnt a lot over the past year, I have learnt opengl in java and also C# with xna, so I might start some tutorials and support topics for these, as I know this community needs contributing members for different engines, I do also know how to use Unity a little, but much prefer hard coding a game, it just gives you so much more power and ways to go about doing stuff. would people like me to post content for these? i'm up to ideas if anyone has any, or if anyone would like me to focus more on one than the other to begin, ill probably start out with the basics first and maybe start some projects later where we have to make a basic game, to implement stuff learnt, as I know the best way to learn is set a target and try and meet it, would also be good getting the community more involved. anyway, let me know what you think, peace :)

hey theoryoferin, thanks for reporting the bug, I looked into it and turns out I forgot something minor, I have changed the script in the database with the fix :)

cool, i'm not going to be able to be able to check it for a couple of days as I have a 30hr travel journey to the UK ahead of me :/ but as soon as i get the chance ill look into it

can you post a scripts.rxdata and i can do a full debug, as it is that should work as long as you got no weapon equipped, remember to make sure your unequipping your weapon, I made that mistake a few times

I still need to know how your forcing the damage to not be 0 when unarmed, when I edit the base attack like I mentioned before and make the same edits you made to the damage equations it divides perfectly when unarmed, are you giving your character a base attack power and adding the weapons attack onto that? here is the script I got it to work with:

us a print before and after the damage is changed, like this: p self.damage if attacker.is_a?(Game_Actor) self.damage /= 2 unless attacker.weapon_equipped? end p self.damage tell me what result you get, if the damage is successfully divided then your problem lies elsewhere, it would be nice to see how you implemented forcing your character to do damage when having no weapon equiped edit: also where abouts you add the edit will make a diference, I would probably add it in where the guarding corection is done

did you add the method 'weapon_equipped' to Game_Actor?

well you will need at least some base attack or its just gonna do 0 damage anyway, then in game_actor add a method to check the character for a weapon like: def weapon_equipped? return !$data_weapons[@weapon_id].nil? end then in your battle formula you can check the character for a weapon and go from there, also check if the attacker is a Game_Actor if attacker.is_a?(Game_Actor) self.damage /= 2 unless attacker.weapon_equipped? end

you want to edit game_actor, where the base attack is calculated here: def base_atk weapon = $data_weapons[@weapon_id] return weapon != nil ? weapon.atk : 0 end just make the 0 whatever you want the base attack for an unarmed character to be

I had a mess around at manually opening the map file and resetting the dimensions, but because of how rpg maker center's the map on screen it makes a weird tiling affect and your movment glitches, to actually resize the map it would require a rework on how everything is calculated, which is a bit of a hassle for something small, and then when you actually reduced the size of a map you would still get black borders because of the window size, so dolarmak's answer is the most suitable as it would just give the same effect.

I got a collection of all his tilesets in one project: http://www.gdunlimited.net/media/uploads/manager/inq-tileset-collection-19396.zip

I still have that script file you sent me about the ice system the other day, if you haven't changed much or don't have that file available I can upload it for you, would just be easier rather than trying to find an unknown error edit: think I found your error, your blizz abs part2 is the same as part1, i am guessing you might have edited the config and pasted it in the wrong one?
