Is there any equivalent script code to "$game_map.interpreter.running?", but for autorun events? And not only for common events but for autorun events on the map too.
Don't think this deserves its own thread so I thought I'd ask here.

It is an improvement, making the animation stop a little less but it still lags a bit so it isn't perfect, but hey I'll take it. Thank you!

You are checking for the same switches twice though. You should change the...
@last_step_anime = false unless $game_switches[3] || $game_switches[169]
...line to use another switch since you want both switch 3 and 169 to force the animation on. That line is for checking a switch to check if you want the animation to stay on if it's already on but not turn it on if it isn't you see?
Edit: You know, this isn't important at all, but that whole step animation thing suddenly reminds me of a little script I made for my game. It made it so if the player stops moving for a bit they start walking in place. I just kinda strikes me as funny that I have made a script before that did the exact opposite that this wall bump one did. XD

I noticed no one is following Editor Support and Discussion. I don't know if that's on purpose. I thought I was following it, but I guess I forgot to re-follow after the site reboot. I'm just letting everyone know that they aren't following because 0 were following (and now 1 because of me)
-
I never really even thought about following a whole subfourm like that... It seems like something not many people would really do. Sounds handy if you are a mod or just like to reply to every message, but being notified for all the activity in a whole subfourm sounds a bit too much to me. :3

Interesting. Would be a great addition to the library. I had a "library" thread where ppl gave ideas of classes, skills, enemies, etc, and I added them to the OP. Had it hidden bc the spoilers busted after site rework. Waiting for Riki to unhide it.

Spending a lot of time and effort into making an RPG Maker game is perhaps more painful than working in other game engines, because you just know that most everyone is going to look down on the game for being made in an "easy" "cookie cutter" engine. The game is overall going to be less exciting than the average Unity platformer or Unreal adventure game or Game Maker game, less respected than even a Ren'Py visual novel. And therefore less chance of all the work paying off beyond my own satisfaction, and ultimately my own regret.

All I am saying is, it's only a waste if you think it is. If you are mostly dreaming about "making it big" so to speak, then yeah, it will probobly all go to waste. I mean, you could make it big. Possibly. Not likely but possibly. Maybe taking that small chance is enough to make it worth it to you on it's own for now, but that kind of motivation tends to dry up after a while don't you think? However, if you have the itch to do it for it's own sake then it will never be a waste now will it? :3

If you're serious about getting into serious game development, RPG Maker is a great stepping stone to get your foot in the door into map designing, database management & story telling. Plus, the events themselves let you understand basic programming logic as the ruby/java script is openly viewable for you to study. You can just decide which programming language you want to learn, such as java/script, python, C/++, etc., and eventually start programming your own game making engine, assuming of course you have the learning capacity & time & also money to do so.

@Animebryan In the immortal words of Heath Ledger's version of the Joker: "Why so serious?" :P
I mean, you aren't wrong, but no matter how serious you may be I think if all you are looking for is to get your foot in the door so you can go on to bigger and better things it becomes more of a paint by numbers thing then a real creative endeavor. It makes it much easier to burn out at an apparent lack of success and harder to be invested in what you are actually doing.

Anybody know where I can find resources that work with the POP! Horror tiles?
EDIT: For VX Ace, not MV.

Any of the horror themed music and sound packs, Always Sometimes Monsters (it's on sale right now for a whole week!!!!! 70% off I believe), any graphics packs that are similar in appearance to POP...
I mostly just have the sound resources from the POP Horror City stuffs in Ramsey; the art style doesn't actually fit with Mack's sprites...-

Well, I just discovered this awesome thing called Always, Sometimes Monsters, and the tileset DLC looks very, very promising, so I grabbed it.
It might even end up replacing in part or wholly, the tileset I'm using currently, but that is to be seen.- Show previous comments 7 more

One idea I had for a while but I never got around to trying was to see what happens when I record myself saying something, reverse it, listen to what it sounds like reversed, then record my self saying what I think it sounds like, then reversing that...
Turns out as far as I can tell it mostly makes it sound like I am saying something in a funny accent. I was kinda hoping for something weirder, like something inhaling air to speak.
Maybe if I try using a really breathy whisper voice...

1) I entirely agree about puzzle horror. Action horror is an entirely different genre entirely though.
Most 'action horror' games I think are really more just straight up action games that use horror theming. Kinda like Doom.
Quote2) I've never played Minecraft, but I've heard about the freaky stuff. I've also seen how some people feel about the Enderman.
... Are we still talking horror feelings are are we heading more into Mob Talker territory? Minecraft inspires all sorts of feelings after all. :P
Quote3) 7 Days To Die and The Forest play the survival part straight while (mostly) keeping within the genre.
I know games like that exist, I just haven't played them. :3

I also have hypersensitive vision. lolz One of my old friends used to call me Wesker because of it.
Definitely Mob Talker-
EDIT: Almost forgot to mention that, technically speaking, RE4 and on count as action horror. Gun down the attacking things with (usually) more ammo than you can shake a stick at, compare to the previous three entries in all their limited ammo and health item glory... RE2 aside, due to somebody actually doing a tally of the ammo after playing aggressively and still having so much.

I don't think I have hypersensitive vision myself, but bright lights can still be annoying. Honestly I don't really think sunglasses even really make it that much harder to see at night anyway? I don't think they uniformly block all frequencies of light.
Enderman or Bend her (over) man?
I haven't really played any of the RE games except I think a little of RE4, so I can't be sure, but it seemed to me like RE4 at least still had a bit of that puzzle horror feel. Not heard anything good about 5 or 6 though. RE7 looked like it sorta returned to the series' puzzle-based roots though, new first person camera nonwithstanding. I haven't played RE7, but I have watched a playthrough or two.

Also,
Yeah he can telekineticly throw things around in some of the spin offs and the GBA remake. Also yeah they were exactly there and they were totally the double dragon twins. Fun fact: There are lots and lots of Double Dragon cameos in River City Girls too. They are basically now officially set in the same universe.
-
Yeah from my understanding, some of the people that worked on the original Renegade game (I did know about that one) actually went off and made Double Dragon. They actually even kind of 'borrowed' the basic plot from Renegade for DD and DD2<---best
I still turn on DD2 at least twice a year and beat it. Flying knees from stage 1 till the end :D
I also played DD4 a few years ago when it came out. I didn't love it, but I was so happy to have another, and so happy the went with the NES port style. They even emulated the screen tearing a sprite-limit flickering!!
I beat it once and I think I'm fine with that, for life lol. That game was tough
-
Hehe, So you know Renegade was actually the first Kunio-kun game in Japan too? They made a loooot of changes to it in the translation, so I am not sure how much of the plot is even left in the US version. On the other hand they both still start with someone getting beat up so...

To improve my work ethic, and keep me motivated, I've joined the 30 day projects at dk30.day9.tv
-
If you want motivation, I could rig up some kind of machine, where like a program reads if you've made progress on your project. If not, it lets alligators loose on you.
Or there could be like, a thing where there's three judges, and you have to go on a show once a week and present your progress to them. If none of the judges give you a rose, then they set alligators loose on you.
I guess if you want to be realistic, you could lock yourself in a room with your project. Then, surround the outside of the room with alligators, and like the only way out is through the roof, by helicopter, but the pilot only comes to get you once your project is done.
Either way, help me get rid of some of these alligators.
