Special Symbols

[Humpster]

Is it possible have special symbols in text boxes in RMXP just like in RM2k3 (like skull, arrows, tm, smilies etc)?

[Bluhman]

Well, Murray, in RM2X, (That is, RPG maker 2000 or 2003), you can type $ and pair it with a letter, uppercase or lowercase. For example, typing $a will result in a happyface symbol. All the default symbols for this method are listed below:

$A Sword
$a Smiling face
$B Shield
$b Neutral face
$C Star of Salomon
$c Sad face
$D Sun
$d Sweat 1
$E Moon
$e Sweat 2
$F Mercury  
$f Spade(clear)
$G Venus  
$g Hearth(clear)
$H Venus(inversed)
$h Stand(clear)
$I Mars
$i Club(clear)
$J Jupiter
$j Spade(filled)
$K Saturn
$k Hearth(filled)
$L Uranus
$l Stand(filled)
$M Neptune
$m Club(filled)
$N Pluto
$n Skull
$O Aries
$o A X
$P Taurus
$p Sun
$Q Gemini
$q Moon
$R Cancer
$r Dot
$S Leo
$s Up arrow
$T Virgo
$t Right arrow
$U Libra
$u Down arrow
$V Scorpio
$v Left arrow
$W Sagitarius
$w Up-right arrow
$X Capricorn
$x Down-right arrow
$Y Aquarius
$y Down-left arrow
$Z Pisces
$z Up-left arrow

If you aren't satisfied with the defaults, you can get a program which can open up the configuration settings of your game, and allow you to create custom symbols.


As for RMXP, I just don't know.

[Humpster]

Yeah, I know, but I was asking whether it was possible to do the same in RMXP...

In XP you're gonna wanna import an advanced Message script.
And you can do all that, plus more.
