What does it do?

Adds a Monster Book to the game which can be accessed through Plugin Command or Menu.

Monster Book records and holds info of all enemies you killed what loot you gained from them.

*Note: Suited for 1280x720 and higher resolutions,.

Pick and choose which panel shows what. More panels in the future. Open for suggestions.

How to use?

Set up the parameters in Plugin Manager and you're pretty much set to go.

All plugin commands listed in Help in Plugin Manager.

 

Use <b_hidden> in enemy note field when you don't want it to show up in the Monster Book.

You can use any amount of <attack: X> (X being Skill ID) to show Attacks of the Enemy in Monster Book.

You can use <desc:TXT> to show description of the enemy in Monster Book. Make sure there's no space between colon and text. Else the first word will start off aligned. You can also have it multiline.

E.g.

<desc:Line1

Line2>

 

Plugin: <Link: Github>

How to download Script. Click the link above, there will be a button named Raw, press Right Click -> Save As.

 

Credit and Thanks:

Marnick de Grave for the layout.

 

Plans for future:

Compatibility with Steal script to make a panel that shows items to be stolen.

More panels - description in Top panel instead of bottom. Attacks in bottom panel.

Open for more ideas.

 

Legal:

Free for non-commercial games.

I intend to try this out tomoro after work. This s exactly what I was needing for my game later~

Thanks again Glasses!

 

Quick Question:

Can you hide certain elemental weaknesses?

I'm using some elements for each weapon type (such as slash, pierce, shot) so I can add weapon advantages to the game too and I assume they'll show up on this under defenses (which I don't want the weapon elements to appear like this).

 

Overall though, I love this layout. Everythings clear and looks great.

Thanks for making this :3

@Takeo212,

Nope. Shows all of resistances as of now. But a nice idea, I'll add that.

 

@Kotori,

It can be called via item/common event.

* Plugin Commands:
*   MonsterBook open		# Opens MonsterBook scene

Is this the one that comes with MV or is this a different one?

@Animebryan,

Why would you assume it's a default one? If it was default one, why would I upload it?

@Animebryan,

Why would you assume it's a default one? If it was default one, why would I upload it?

Maybe you took the original & made improvements or compatability fixes?

Oh please do It'd help alot, thank you ^^

Now to figure out how to remove gold from the drops section. Enemies in my game don't drop money, only materials/items

 

@Animebryan: Nope, different plugin The DLC one has a different layout and such.

@Takeo212,

comment out lines 337-341 - this part:

		/*
		h += this.lineHeight();
		this.changeTextColor(this.systemColor());
		this.drawText(currencyText, x, h, w, 'left');
		this.resetTextColor();
		this.drawText(enemy.gold, x, h, w, 'right');
		*/

Thank you, That saved me having to go through the whole code and removing the wrong thing >.<;

[Animebryan 138]

After seeing how this is better, I do have one request. Could you have the dropped items also show their drop rates? Please

v1.1 Update

- Cleaned up Plugin Manager.

- Added more options for existing panels. (Removing/Showing elements, parameters, description font size)

- Choice of how to display enemies. Show up to highest discovered enemy ID or all of them (like it was before).

 

@Animebryan,

Will see about it in the future.
