Character Slain Error

[Lonewolf]

Ok, in my game, I am trying to make it so that my character's Model changes to show equipped items (i.e.-gloves, armor, etc.), but when I make a change to the characters model or model color their HP and MP zero out and the next time I activate an event or talk to someone, they die!

Has anyone encountered this problem before? Any clue why this happens or how to fix it??

Does the max hp and mp go to zero or does it just get depleted?

I'm not sure. I think is just get's depleted. Let me check...

edit:

ok, ALL of his stats (ie-HP, MP, STR, DEF, ATTACK, etc.) get zero'd out (all 0's) and his Level goes back to 1 with MAX HP and MAX MP of 1 each....??

EDIT:

I fixed the Char Slain issue. The model changes fine now, but I can't get the "New Look" to carry over when I leave and enter a new area (change map). I have tried adding a Model Check to the Enter Map event script using a variable to retain the Model Info, but I can't get it to work. Any ideas?

EDIT:

Problem solved! The problem was that I was using variables to keep track of the changes that were made to the character model. For some reason, the variables didn't work. I'm not sure why. So, I tried using Flags instead. It worked without a hitch!

Oh, as for the "Slain" glitch. In my script, after making the changes to my character, I input a Member>Save Info command. For some reason this was the issue. On a hunch, I changed it to Load Info instead and the problem was solved.

If you go to World Orginzation LoneWolf you'll see a Script tab where you can enter a system script that activates when ever you Enter a Map. This is a great place to put a Script that keeps track of variables related to your Character's appearance.

You should be able to load w/e changes you want to your characters through variables here without any glitches. Think of it as the Master Script if you will, that loads before anything else does - so it's great for defining changes to your game as the player progresses through it.

Yeah, I've got it working fine now. You did give me a few ideas though, for utilizing such a "master script"...thanks!
