Community Sprite Pack Suggestion

[Mizai]

I was editing the scripts for the computer...and i was wondering if it's possible to make this an actual function in the game

@text.show(Booting up the PC...*Choose a host to~connect to.)
@options.show(Bill's PC,Inbox,Edit Sprite,Log off) <-- // Added Edit Sprite on the pc
:when:Bill's PC
@screen.storagesystem
@script.start(computer_choose)
:when:Inbox
@screen.mailsystem
:when:Edit Sprite <-- // Added this to call to Edit Sprite on list.
@player.wearskin(Mizai2) <-- // Added this to add the sprite to the player/Show them a list of sprites to choose from.
@script.start(computer_choose)
:when:Log off
:endscript
:endwhen
:end

Now, what should really happen here, is a box should pop up and allow you to pick the sprite sheet you wish to use, that said, this should only show up if you have the community sprite pack enabled. and since the thumbnails of the pictures are so small...it shouldn't be an issue to make them show up in a list to scroll through them by name. This way only sprite content can be changed, and no one is putting nonesense or hacking stuff into the game. I think that the Community Sprite Pack should be able to edited, since i like to make sprites, should be able to edit them myself and put new sprites in, OR, upload and let tornado release new sprite packs. I can always edit them offline mode.

I have found a work around however it will require a full update

 

[Mizai]

That sucks.. that could be up a to a week or longer...is my idea even good?

your idea is similar to what i did however the choosing of the sprite is different
also I suspect that we will have to make a fix because of the false positives from the file validation system
that might come in a few days

I figured as much, what did you do exactly? I'd like to hear. what i did works really well actually. infact you should edit your script in computer.dat (make a computer.bak first of course) to what i put and see for yourself.

well since that script command isnt in the game it ofc wont work
I used the @screen.input command with the @player.wearskin command to allow the player to manually input the sprite they want to use

 

[Darkfire]

This is what it will look like if it goes in(nilllzz might still reject this so...)

i used @player.wearskin(Mizai2) it works, and after the sprite is put on it evne removes it from the list until u boot the pc again. it has potential to work well. i only renamed some things as an example.

 

[Mizai]

No that's Even better than mine man. if you know the sprite name that works perfectly! theres not really going to be any discrepancies there. It's weird how we had a Similar idea. Lol

 

[Darkfire]

I am not sure exactly what you did there
The thing is with the new file validation system if you have to edit the script to get it to work then it wont work
The thing I used will bring up an input for the player to use

it works in offline mode. i saved a backup of the new script before editing to make surei didnt have to redownload the game over again. sure enough it worked. I can show you if you like.

Just be sure you have an exception to prevent crashes encase someone names a non-existent sprite.

This will happen if they do that:

what i really have is @player.wearskin(Mizai2) what i put up there is an example. when i actually use the script in my cmputer.dat on the game it gives me my itachi sprite.
