Overlay Mapping

[magpie 0]

Hello. I'm trying to get this script, but, whenever I click on the link, I get an error from Dropbox, saying:

 

"Error (509)

This account's public links are generating too much traffic and have been temporarily disabled!"

 

Since it says "temporarily", I thought it would go away soon... And that was a few days ago. Is it possible to post the script here on the forum/another site or perhaps send it as an e-mail to me? I'd really appreciate it!

 

PS - I thought about downloading the demo and getting the script from it, but I get another error, saying that the resource could not be found...

The dropbox links seem to be dead for both this and the Basic Module. Would it be possible for anyone to post the scripts directly?

Sorry man, I have only this version if it's old

# 2011.12.29 - Bugfix for transfer.
# 2011.12.10 - Started and Finished Script.
#
#==============================================================================
# â–¼ Introduction
# =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
# This script based on Hanzo Kimura's idea. This will automatically load map's
# overlay by map ID, and a map can have more than one image per layer, so you
# don't have to create two or more map just for day/night or when an event occur.
# 
#==============================================================================
# â–¼ Instructions
# =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
# Create a folder in Graphics and name it Overlay.
# Put all of your overlay into Graphics/Overlay.
# Your overlay file will have the name: "Filename Prefix" + Map-ID + "-" + Number
# which "Filename Prefix" is the one you will config below
# Map-ID is your map's ID
# Number is 1, 2, 3, ... using for Overlay Variables.
#
# Example: Graphics/Overlay/ground2-1.png
# Which means this will be ground layer, for map 2, variable = 1
#
# Light/Shadow must be .jpg
# Parallax/Ground must be .png

I just realized I can render a shadow layer as well in POV-Ray.

 

I still don't understand the instructions, though.

Same as JohnLivingStone, the links in the blog are broken and I haven't found alternative sources. (Curiously, Victor's Scripts links are down as well) Does anyone know another place to get Yami Overlay Mapping? (script and demo :B Not to be too picky withe request, but demos really help avoid asking dumb questions later).

Thanks!

Hey i really need this, is there a another demo of this? the current link is broken, both :/ .. hope to hear from you thank alot.

Hey Thank you Kawaii...!!

This is the most user full think ever created,

Thanks so much for your effort.

Konichiwa, Yami-chan, I'm really impressed by the work you've done and I tried downloading the script though I wasn't able due to your url being disabled for now and I couldn't download the demo... could you perhaps post the script with the instructions... Thank you ^^

Thank you Kawaii!!  and wow this has been so long time i've had a big break from RPGMaker for a time. 

 

Awesome script Yami!

Yami Sensei, Thank you so much for making such amazing scripts! You really bring meaning to my rmvx ace project! Thank you so much! For all of the scripts Especially Symphony! And here I google something else I need and I see your kawaii Icon lol. Wow I want to make a cool game and share it with everyone on the site! I hope I can make something decent for everyone!
