Well, it was another crazy busy week (ugh!) but I did manage to create a new production bed to share. Free to use with attribution, you'll find it on my new Country page: "CHUGGIN' THROUGH THE BLUE GRASS STATE" https://soundimage.org/country/ Enjoy!

I’ve been playing it for more than a year, and can assure it's all the same. The game is as stupid and addictive as it was…..I just can’t quit playing it man. Why do you wanna play it, just leave and find yourself something else please.

Wow, 500 hours, you’re definitely an experienced player. I’ve just started the game like 2 months back (or even less). From your description it looks like nothing much has changed. Things are quite similar even now, you just play for a few levels, get stuck after a point and then just keep ascending over and over again.

$D13x Teleport Dekita Introduction This script enables a reasonably animated teleportation scene. Each teleport location can cost gold. Easy script calls to add/remove each teleport location and disable/enable each available teleport location. This script also replicates the "Search" feature from FF10. This feature allows the player to "search" the map for specific co-ordinates, if certain co-ordinates are found it will activate/enable a new location.

Tutorial topic: How to show credits during gameplay. Brief description: Have you ever watched a movie and seen how the credits pop up as the opening action scene plays out? People are talking, fighting, doing all the movie things, but the credits appear and vanish along the way without disturbing the flow of action. It's become such a common thing that movie critics actually criticize films that don't do their opening credits in this way. This method will allow you to have that in your game without scripts or even a lot of special skill! Requirements: Obviously, you will need RPGMaker VX Ace (this should also work with everything but MZ as it only requires that you have access to the built in battle animations tab). Beyond that, you will need a simple photo editing software like Photoshop. I use GIMP because it's free and relatively simple to use. You can technically do this with paint, but if you do, you will need to use another service to make the background transparent. Before I discovered GIMP, I used lunapic as it's free and all online. This is inferior to GIMP in my opinion, but it has the advantage of not requiring the download of a frankly massive program. TL;DR: You need an RPGMaker that has the animation tab (so any except for MZ) and you need a way to edit pictures while keeping them transparent. Step 1; The Credit: To begin, we need to take a random base from the animations folder of the RTP. We're not actually going to change it, but rather, we're going to use it as a template. I used Thunder4 because it's one of the larger bases with room for 25 animation panels. I advise making a copy and pasting it into another folder, then working on the copy so that you don't accidentally overwrite the base picture. Once you have it loaded up in your editor, erase everything so that the only thing left is the transparent background, As shown here: Choose a small corner of the template then, and insert the text you want! Don't worry about it being more than one animation panel. It probably will be larger than one, depending on how much you have to type. For my test case, I used a simple "A Game By Aslanemperor" Save, export, or whatever you need to do. Take any extra steps you may need to make the image transparent. This is standard with GIMP, and I hear that Photoshop makes this pretty easy as well. Once this is done, simply import this into your game using the built in Resource manager in RPGMaker. Step Two; The Animation: This part can get a little time consuming, but is still VERY simple. My example took up two panels worth of room on the template (out of a max of 25). As such, I took those two panels, and set them side by side over where I wanted them to go. The animation system makes this very easy as everything is designed to lock neatly into place, so as long as you pay attention, it will be a simple matter to make everything look good. Now we figure how long you want your credit to show itself, and where you want it on the screen. For this example, I placed mine directly in the center. When you're putting together your frames, keep timing in mind. 1 second is equal to roughly 30 animation frames. Because of this, I set up the fade in to last through the first 26 frames, then had it hold solid for another 45, followed by a more rapid 15 frame fade out. I did this by right clicking each individual panel and adjusting the "Opacity" number. Because I wanted this to be close to a full second of fade in, I added 10 points to the value on every frame, making it go fully Opaque at frame 26, with a value of 255. This is why it can be a bit time consuming. Once you know what you're doing, however, it doesn't take long to put these together. It took me just over 5 minutes to put everything for this animation together. You'll notice that there's a box for the animation beyond just the scope of the target. That box represents your screen. Depending on where you want this to show up on the screen, that's where you'll place your animation box. For instance, if you align it with the top left of that box, it will show up on the top left corner of the screen. Step Three; Implementation: So, you've made your "Credits" animation, and you're ready to place it. The way I did it, was to have an event along the path the player has to follow, and when they walk over that area, it triggers the credit animation. I set the animation to be centered on the player. This way, it keeps on showing in the area I want as he walks: Don't forget when making your event that you want to set it to end after the player has walked past it. Also, DO NOT click for it to wait if you want your character to continue doing things while this shows. Conclusion: So, I found this entire process to be extremely easy, and can be done with things that anyone has access to (you can even manage this with just paint and a web browser). It's a unique way to put your credits into your game without a clunky opening video (which usually requires some sort of video editing software). If you have any questions, or you know an easier way to pull this off, I'm happy to hear it. I hope this helps someone!

First things first. I did not compile the following list. I don't remember who did, its not the same one Archeia posted previously. If the original poster has some issue with this being reposted pm me or report the thread and I'll remove it. Anyways, I'm just reposting this as I had a local copy and I remembered that a lot of the previous links to 'script call master lists' were broken when this site and the Degica one upgraded software. So, here it is: (I'm too lazy to reformat it ) Variables $game_variables[n] Switches $game_switches[n] Conditional Branch if #something #something else #something end Show Picture screen.pictures[index].show(file_name, upperleft/center, x, y, x zoom, y zoom, opacity, blend type) Move Picture screen.pictures[n].move(0/1 (top left or center), x, y, zoom1, zoom2, opacity, blend type (0,1, 2), wait) Picture Tone screen.pictures[n].start_tone_change(Tone.new(0, 0, 0, 0), wait) Looping For #something end Move Event move_route = RPG::MoveRoute.new move_route.repeat = false move_route.skippable = true m = RPG::MoveCommand.new m.code = 45 #The List of M Code can be found over Game_Character, this current m.code is call script m.parameters = ["script call here"] move_route.list.insert(0,m.clone) $game_player.force_move_route(move_route) Transfer Event Location $game_map.events[id].moveto(new_x, new_y) Transfer Player $game_player.reserve_transfer(map_id, x, y, direction) Screen Tint t = Tone.new(red,green,blue, gray) screen.start_tone_change(t, duration) Shake Screen @params = [] @params[0] = power or $game_variables[x] @params[1] = speed or $game_variables[y] @params[2] = duration or $game_variables[z] Note: (Neonblack and Fomar0153 found this glitch!) The shake screen has an option in the editor where you can add a "wait" or not. But the glitch involves that it will wait no matter what. But it will only wait a number of frames equal to whatever the speed is set to the default option. For example, the setting is 5 power, 5 speed, 60 frames, and wait. It will wait for 5 frames, no matter what. Call Common Event: $game_temp.reserve_common_event(id) Play SE/ME/BGS/BGM: RPG::SE.new("SE Name", volume, pitch).play RPG::ME.new("ME Name", volume, pitch).play RPG::BGS.new("BGS Name", volume, pitch).play RPG::BGM.new("BGM Name", volume, pitch).play Show Text: $game_message.add("Text") Gain/lose Item: $game_party.gain_item($data_items[id], amount) $game_party.lose_item($data_items[id], amount) (For weapons/armor use $data_weapons or $data_armors in place of $data_items.) Gather Followers: $game_player.followers.gather Change Player Followers: $game_player.followers.visible = true or false Erase Event: $game_map.events[event_id].erase Some conditional script calls to add to Celianna's: Button pressing Input.repeat?:)A) Input.press?:)A) Movement $game_player.dash? $game_player.jumping? $game_map.events[event_id].moving? $game_map.events[event_id].jumping?

This small script call will help immensely: $data_items.each { |i| next if i.nil? or i.name == "" $game_party.gain_item(i, 99) } Of course, if you want you can change $data_items to $data_weapons or something else and the amount you want. When checking for input triggers/pressing you can actually shorten that a bit: Input.trigger?:)CTRL) There is no need to write Input::CTRL anymore. To get the leader of the party you can do this: $game_party.leader Gain/lose gold: $game_party.gain_gold(amount) $game_party.lose_gold(amount) Check for current max gold: $game_party.max_gold Get map id and name: $game_map.map_id $game_map.name To correct the screen shake bug thing do the following at Game_Interpreter: def command_225 screen.start_shake(@params[0], @params[1], @params[2]) wait(@params[2]) if @params[2] end Now it will wait the right amount of frames and not 5. $game_player.region_id == n $game_map.events[event_id].region_id == n Show Choices params = [] choices = [] choices.push("choice 1") choices.push("choice 2") params.push(choices) params.push(0/1/2 this part is where you press cancel and which choice to default) setup_choices(params) It is pretty easy to fake the When [**] command (402). The definition is just command_skip if @branch[@indent] != @params[0] Where @params stores the choice number for that specific branch (0, 1, 2, ... ) So all you have to do is replace @params[0] with an integer if @branch[@indent] == 0 # branch for first choice elsif @branch[@indent] == 1 # branch for second choice end Editor line continuation $game_variables[12] = ($game_variables[6] == $game_variables[10]) && ($game_variables[7] == $game_variables[11]) && ($game_variables[8] == $game_variables[10]) && ($game_variables[9] == $game_variables[11]) change the text dialog background: $game_message.background = 1 #0 = default blue, 1 = dim, 2 = transparent Equip weapon $game_actors[1].change_equip(0,$data_weapons[1]) the 0 value in the above code snippet can have the following values: 0 = weapon 1 = shield 2 = headgear 3 = body-gear (armor) 4 = accessory Transfer player $game_player.reserve_transfer(map_id, x, y, $game_player.direction) $game_player.followers.visible = true or false Audio.se_play(name, volume, pitch) Is Weapon Equipped? $game_actors[actor id].weapons.include?($data_weapons[weapon id]) Access self switches $game_self_switches[[mapid, eventid, 'A']] = true Make sure you use [[...]] and not just [...] Get Currency Unit $data_system.currency_unit For any equipment, you can use this: right_hand = $game_actors[actor_id].equips[0] left_hand = $game_actors[actor_id].equips[1] To get the items. Replace the index in equips for the item you're looking for (0 = right hand, 1 = left hand, 2 = head, 3 = body, 4 = accessory, provided you're not using any scripts that change that). You can check their types with: if right_hand.is_a?(RPG::Weapon) # do something elsif right_hand.is_a?(RPG::Armor) # do something else end Or get their properties with with right_hand.id right_hand.name right_hand.icon_index right_hand.description # etc.. i.e. if you want to check if you have a Prinny Gun equipped on your first weapon slot: right_hand = $game_actors[actor_id].equips[0] if !right_hand.nil? && right_hand.name.eql?("Prinny Gun") # Do something end You don't even need to keep track of the IDs, really (unless you want to, for some reason). If there's no way to not have a weapon equipped in your game, you can also take out the ".nil?" check. Showing a text box with pure script $game_message.position = X 0 -Top 1- Middle 2- Bottom $game_message.background = X 0 - Normal 1 - Faded 2 - Transparent $game_message.face_name = 'Actor1' <- Name of the graphic plate $game_message.face_index = 0 <- Position in the plate of the face you are using. $game_message.face_name = 'Actor1' $game_message.face_index = 0 $game_message.background = 2 $game_message.position = 0 $game_message.add("Text") $game_player.passable?(x, y, d) and $game_map.events[event_id].passable?(x, y, d) are extensions to this that do a little more detailed checking. $game_map.passable? only tells you whether you can leave one tile in the direction of the other. The player and event versions take it further and tell you if you can leave that tile in the direction of the other AND if you can enter the other tile from the tile you're on now (for example, if you are facing right and the tile in front of you is the edge of a cliff that is higher than you - $game_map.passable? would tell you that you CAN step right from the current tile. But $game_player.passable? would tell you that you could not move onto the next tile from the left). It also looks to see if there is an event on your target tile which would stop you going there, but $game_map.passable? would not tell you that. Check HP You can check an actor's current hp with: $game_actors[x].hp Or the leader's current hp: $game_party.leader.hp Or a member of the party: $game_party.members[x].hp Check Items Here's the script from Game_Interpreter that places the quantity of an item into a variable: $game_party.item_number($data_items[param1]) So you'd just change param1 to the item id you're interested in, and add your condition around it: if $game_party.item_number($data_items[32]) == 15 Checking how many of a particular type of weapon or armor is very similar: $game_party.item_number($data_weapons[param1]) $game_party.item_number($data_armors[param1]) Access Event by Name # Code by Filip H.F.
