Question, does this only work on the default directories, or will it work on say
custom_pict('graphics/pictures/custom folder/', 'pic')

Also is it case sensative, and does it work in common events?

Reason I asked is because I tried to use
custom_pict('graphics/pictures/Battle - HUD/' ,'button-01')

In a common event, and it gave me a syntax error :s

LiTTleDRAgo

I believe it's not case sensitive
try to use it like this

folder = 'graphics/pictures/Battle - HUD/'
file = 'button-01'
custom_pict(folder,file)

Zexion

It still doesn't work :(
Is it because it won't work in a common event o.o

LiTTleDRAgo

can you upload your common event? I mean, your CommonEvents.rxdata
preferably, in filehosting that doesn't need registration to download it (such as dropbox or mediafire)

It's the 10th event, should say Battle HUD

sorry, but could you upload it to mediafire or dropbox?

LiTTleDRAgo

you typed it wrongly

Quotefolder = 'Graphics/Pictures/Battle
HUD/'

file = '01 - Button - Attack'
custom_pict(folder, file)


it should be

Quotefolder = 'Graphics/Pictures/Battle ' +
'HUD/'

file = '01 - Button - Attack'
custom_pict(folder, file)


or

Quotefolder =
'Graphics/Pictures/Battle HUD/'
file = '01 - Button - Attack'
custom_pict(folder, file)

Oh so if it passes the line then it doesn't count ? XD

Yeah, the way how RMXP handles the event command 'Script' is through use of the method eval.
It breaks each line up and tries to evaluate the code one-at-a-time.
Basically, it did this:
eval("folder = 'Graphics/Pictures/Battle")

You can already see the problem: there's no second quotation mark to end the string. Hence, syntax error.

To be honest, I had a feeling that this was happening, but I didn't think of what to do next. I seriously didn't even attempt to think about how to fix it. I just became a zombie and posted it on this thread. What is wrong with me ?? D:
