Title: Ocarina of Time ocarina help
Post by: punk_Blood on July 31, 2010, 12:45:50 am
okay... ive been messing around with this for a while and i just want a little help...

im making a zelda game slightly similar to or exactly to the ocarina of time and i cant figure out how to do the ocarina
i have the three tunics as armor and i have the ocarina as an item... i need it to change graphic to blah blah depending on what armor im wearing... then i need it to show picture (music sheeet basically) then every note is a diff noise obviously
but i also need to know how to make it so if you havnt talked to a specific person yet then you cant play certain songs


i dont care if its all events or a script (much rather have events) but if its a script then it has to be compatible with Blizz-ABS


                                                                                                                                   thanks in advance,
                                                                                                                                               punk_Blood

Hmm... I think I could come up with an event system that would make this work. It's late right now, so I'll give it a shot tomorrow.

In Ocarina of Time, the ocarina doesn't change based on your tunic. You might be thinking of Majora's Mask, where it changed based on the mask you're wearing. I just thought I'd point that out, since you said this was exactly like OoT.

The graphic of Link playing the ocarina does change.

Hmm... Is it just me, or does it feel less spammy in here?

Anyway, I gave it a shot, but it turns out to be a little more difficult than expected. At any rate, I'll keep at it, it might just take a little longer than I first thought.

yeah i keep getting stuck on it too... i know there is a way to do it but it just keeps slipping from me... i think i have to do conditional branch trees(a lot of them)

@Darth Walrus
well in rpgXP would you really want to have the same tunic everytime you play the ocarina or have it depend on the armor equipped?

Post by: WhiteRose on July 31, 2010, 05:04:49 pm
Yeah, I think how I'm going to do it is to use a main Common Event that uses conditional branches to call other common events. Anyway, are you using Blizz-ABS? That would affect how the graphic change works.

You could create a variable for the color of his suit, and whenever they change suits it changes the variable to that number.
That would also help change the graphic whenever they change suits.

I think there is an ocarina event system somewhere i think maybe at rmrk not sure, but i know it exists.
When you do find a system, just change the part where it changes the graphics into 3 conditional branches. If the variable = 1 it changes the graphic to link in green, if the variable = 2 it changes it to red, if the variable = 3 it changes it to blue.

I made a system for this on my game, but after i finished the game and gave it to a friend i deleted it lol.
I will try to find you the system and make a demo with the changes and all that, :P

Okay i found the system. I'm downloading it and then I will edit it to change the graphic to different colored suits. You do have the graphics you need right?

Okay well I'm almost done. There's a lot of editing because it was like a full system thing like 8 switches and 4 variables , but i changed it into like 3 switches and 2-3 variables. I will be done in about 5-10 minutes, but since i have slow internet it might take as long as 20-30 to upload it and everything. It is the only option because the event is so long it would take you a day to put everything in there lol.

Edit:
It's done! Here's the download link: http://uppit.com/2meluhst2p6t/ocarina_demo.exe
There are a few things you need to know.
First off this is a FULL system, it comes with 4 songs and all the graphics. It is played with the 4 movement keys (this is whatever you defined as up, down, left, and right in the blizz module.), and the "Z" button (Z on keyboard not defined by blizz abs). You activate it by pressing "U".

Okay now when you get it you have to change some things in the common events. First off it is called by a switch that you can choose. Second as you read the event going down.

Ah, lovely; that'll make my job much easier, as well. Are you sure your system is compatible with Blizz-ABS, though? BABS and character graphic changes don't get along well. Of course, if you created the tunics using Visual Equipment, I don't think it would be difficult to get around that.

Well it was actually from the project zelda engine all I did was remove useless switches and variables, change buttons, and add the 3 different tunics :P. I don't know who made the engine lol.
