Hi! I got my hands on RPG Maker XP about 2 weeks ago and have been messing around with it. I have a nice, promising project going, even slowly learning Ruby as I go. But right now, I have an issue. I want to find out how I can display an icon above the player, as in they hold it over their head in celebration! How would I go about scripting this?? Link to video demonstration {
