Visibility Range - Version 1.1
RPG Maker MV Plugin

Introduction
Just a way to limit the player's visibility.

Features
Creates a graphic above the player to be used to hide everything around them except for the transparency in the image. This could be used to create a visibility range around the player while the rest of the screen is hidden.
The overlay can be zoomed in and out to shrink/grow the range and also have varied transparency.
The visibility range image can be changed during game.


How to Use
- Copy the "GALV_VisibilityRange.js" file into your project's /js/plugins/ folder.
- Activate plugin using the 'Plugin Manager'
- Copy the visibility range image (or create your own image) into YourProject/img/system/ folder
- Read the help file to see how it works. Examine the demo if you don't understand.

Oooh, this is great :D I've been silently complaing to myself about MV's visibility range. Makes it hard to hide little treasures if you can see everything...

 

How does this affect the menu? Does it cover the menu, or does the menu overlay over the visibility image? or other? xD

 

EDIT

Wait, ignore me. I done dumbed. Again...

 

I'm gonna go try this now :D

I used pictures to do it in Ace. A script would likely run a bit smoother. Plus there's NPC's that it want to be wearing lighted helmets, and that didn't work well with pictures. Is there a Ace version of this?

Yep, I have an ACE version for this, too - although it's only designed to follow the player so not sure it will do what you need.

I just updated this MV one to Version 1.1 - there was a mistake that caused lag.
