Basic RPGMakerVXAce elements doubts...

[THEAQIB 59]

Hey guys and gals..

 

I got RPG Maker VX Ace a while back and i'm trying to make a game out of it..

But when i proceed to weapon skill and battle I don't seem to modify..

 

Problems

 

1. I acquired a weapon but in the battle i can't use it nor equip it..

 

2.I learn a new skill on level up but it's not available while in battle..

 

Any idea what I did wrong..??

By the way i've not done RPG genre before nor i've used any RPG engines before..

RPG Maker VX Ace is my first..

 

Please help..

I'll appreciate it..

Make sure that in the database you set the weapon to In Battle Only or at any time. ^-^ I don't know if that's your issue but I did that all the time...until I quit creating battles overall...

Have you checked to make sure your character class can use the weapon type (category) which you have put the weapon into?

 

Weapon Note:

Make sure you add the weapon to a weapon type.

 

Have you checked to make sure your character class can use the skill type (category) you put the skill into?

How exactly did you set this all up?

 

I just went and created a new skill which was learnt at level 2 and it showed up in battle as intended, no problems of any kind.

I hope this addresses and helps you find what the problem is.

 

First take a look at the character you're wanting to use that skill. Is he/she the same class as the one who is receiving the spell or skill when they level up? I'll use this paladin as an example.

 

 

Make sure that not only his class has that certain spell/skill listed in skills but also that he can use that skill type. I want him to learn "Heal" at level three. On the traits list (right side) I have to make sure he's able to use the skill type "magic" to be able to cast that spell. You can add various skill types (magic, special attacks, other custom stuff) to the character's class.

 

 

Lastly, check to see if the desired skill is the skill type you added to your character's class. The paladin is able to use magic so he will be able to cast "Heal" when he gets to level three.

Super awesome looking post there for help.

 

If you need any more help, send us pictures of your database so we can help fix it.

THEAQIB: Sorry for replying so late--for weapons, there's a little dropdown area that you can select Only in Battle.

[+ Dark Influence 251]

@Tsarmina:

 

That's for Skills not Weapons.

 

For Weapons there are two drop-down lists:

 

Weapon Type

Animation

 

For Skills there are eight drop-down lists:

 

Skill Type

Scope

Occasion - Only in Battle is listed in this drop-down list.

Damage

Hit Type

Animation

Weapon Type 1

Wepaon Type 2

@RN: Darnit, I knew I would get mixed up talking about something that isn't my forte...

 

Okay, disregard all the stuff I said...>.<

I'll try this out and write the result..

 

ok that is for basic stuff..

my idea is to create a battle network clone..

unfortunately there are a lot of stuff different in rpgmakervxace and megaman battle network..

 

if I have any doubts I'll post em soon..

thank you all..

 

is there anyway to modify the whole battle screen..

for example :

side-view battle..

one battle chip-one attack..

movable inside battle..

animated battlers..

Yes, it either involves very heavy eventing or scripts.  We have a very good scripting community and most of the system you want have working scripts.

 

These are found in the completed scripts section of these forums.  You will have to test and use these scripts to see which ones offer the features you want.

 

Good luck on your project!
