That's it! Enjoy! =D

[Ghareeb]

COOOOL!

[Caro Ru Lushe]

And So, I get the first Error:



With the Bars off or On in the Add-on >__>;;

[Calintz]

V5.1b.....
Does this one solve the problem with the bars??

[Blizzard]

Yes, but you should get Tons 6.03b. I'll check that bug out and simply update the script, just give me a moment.

[Calintz]

*Listens, and does as he is told*

[Blizzard]

Just a typo, I updated the script. This is what you need to do:

The error giving line will say something with $game_system.BARS at the end. Change it to @BARS.

[Calintz]

Ok...
How come you can't fix that??

[Blizzard]

Lol, I already did. I just meant that you don't have to download the fixed version, simply fix it in 5.1 yourself (if you are already using 5.1).

[Calintz]

Oh, haha...well I got 5.1 now, so everything should be fine...

 >> *goes to re0insert the CRSLS back into the game*

[icecold49]

 :oOh my god. This CMS is legendary! Amazing Job! I've got one question tho: How would I change the script so that this CMS completely ignores the status menu, skill menu, and equipment menu (for other script purposes). If this can be changed than i'm definitely using this CMS. Thanks.

[Blizzard]

What do you mean? Do you mean that the options are now accessible or that you get a custom screen if you select them? This already works for the EQUIP options as it was requested and increases compatiblity with the Multi Equip.

[icecold49]

What i mean is i want the status, equip, and skill options to still be accessable from the main menu but when they are selected, i want it to only display the default screens for each menu. This is because I have an equipment skill system that is doesn't work with this CMS (you can't see the learning skill progress and when going to skill option, game crashes). Please help me. If you still don't understand, just tell me what else you need to know. Thank you.

[Blizzard]

I get what you mean. Simply calling the scene like the equip option, right? As I said, I already made it possible to call the default equip screen through the CMS. Expect an update to 5.2 tomorrow which will make that possible.

[Starrodkirby86]

I was first confused when I looked at the demo. I thought it to be exactly or virtually the same as the Nemisis version, but then I read the differences, and I also noticed the more lack of errors, which makes me more happy. This is a great edition, and I LURV it. <3

[icecold49]

Ooops.  :-\ Forget about adding a default equip scene (unless you want to). I totally didn't see the part of the script that allowed the other equip menu. However, it still would be nice if I could make it so that it showed the default skill scene and status scene. Thanks again.

[Blizzard]

As I said, it will make that possible, it's no problem. As soon as I check the new posts today, I will do that.

EDIT:

There you go.

[icecold49]

YES! Thank you Blizz. This is exactly what i needed. I haven't tried it out yet but i'm sure there shouldn't be any problems. Dis CMS is a KEEPER.

[Calintz]

Lol, agreed...He did a wonderful job on this script!!

[Caro Ru Lushe]

If I may Ask . . .
