RPGMaker 2000 question...

Ok, I can’t seem to find help anywhere else, so I’ll here.

I don’t get this:

How do I set it so that when you talk to someone, they join your party?

I can answer that one… Use the change party command on the first page of event commands. If that was not specific enough, I’ll post back.

I do that, but there still seems to be problems.

Well, the only things I can suggest are:

a) make sure you’re adding, not removing the hero
and
b) make sure you’re adding the right hero

:slight_smile:

Ok, got it to work, now how after that do I make his sprite not stay where he was? I want him to kind of move inside of the other character like in FFVII.

Move event command on the second page… move “This event” in these steps:

Start Slip Though
Step towards hero (the hero can only talk to an NPC from one space away, so that’ll move the other character towards the hero)
Change Switch: [Whatever one makes the guy dissapear]
End Slip Though

I cannot find the slip through command. (I wish Rast was on)

Start Slip Through is in “Move Event” in the second tab.

Err, I don’t get it.

  1. Create an event.
  2. Right-click on the large box and select “Insert”.
  3. Click on tab 2 at the top of that box.
  4. Find “Move Event”. Click on it.
  5. Find “Start Slip Through”. Click on it.
  6. Choose the directions the person joining you will move to get to you.
  7. Click “End Slip Through”.
  8. You’re done.

Er… isn’t there a HELP file?

Ok, it works, but he doesn’t stay, once I move he is where I was standing.

You need a switch to make him dissapear. You can edit and turn on/off switches in tab 1 of event commands.

I don’t get it again… and steve no I don’t have a help file.

I never understood switches too well either, for me, theyw e’re the only thing I really couldn’t do…

I wonder if Rast is coming on… otherwise, Zhou, could you help some more?

Er, I’m using 2000.

Switches are one of the most important things…

  1. Create an event.
  2. Right-click on the large box and select “Insert”.
  3. Select “Change Switch”.
  4. In the topmost box, click the “…” to the right of it and select a switch.
  5. Enter a name for this switch if you want to.
  6. Click “OK” once you have a switch.
  7. Make sure that “ON” is marked at the bottom, and then click “OK”.
  8. At the top of this box, click “New Page”.
  9. Click one of the “Switch” boxes at the top left of the second page.
    10: Choose your switch.
    11: You’re done.

It’s the same darn thing.
