Victor Engine - Fog and Overlay

 

 

This script allows to add varied of effects to the maps. Fos are picutres placed above the player layer and loops. Differently from pictures the fog follows the map movement instead of the screen (this behavior can be changed). You can add various fogs to the map.

This is going to make many people happy Vic, nice job.

[Michael Ponder Jr 36]

This reminds me of a script i love using in XP, it lets me have either multiple fogs or panoramas, or both... and this one looks to do the exact same things!

Nice.

When I transfer my character from one map to another, the fog effect creates in that map as well, even thought I didn't put anything in that map's notebox. So my question is: How do I make my fog appear only in certain maps, and not in every one I transfer to? Thanks

[Ascen 5]

According to the comments on Victors site, that error was fixed on the 2nd. Double check you have the latest version (v1.03)

[~NeXy~ 6]

Yay! That fixed it, thanks!

Guys, help plz. Where I can find the fog id?? I am noob in this! I have a picture with fog from rpg maker xp called 002-Clouds01.png

 

So i did an event on map who call script and in this event I putt this

 

id: x : fog ID

name: “002-Clouds01.png†: fog graphic filename (“filenameâ€)

opacity: x : fog opacity (0-255)

move: x : fog screen movement (32 = fog follows the map)

zoom: x : fog zoom (100 = default size)

hue: x : fog hue (0-360)

blend: x : fog blend type (0: normal, 1: add, 2: subtract)

depth: x : fog Z axis (300 = default value)

 

sorry for my english and stupid question! help plz!

Go here and read the instructions: http://victorscripts.wordpress.com/rpg-maker-vx-ace/field-scripts/fog-effects/

[ma5amune 6]

Go here and read the instructions: http://victorscripts...ts/fog-effects/

Ok

I just paste that on map propries note

<fog effect>

settings

</fog effect>

 

and in script I added info about ID and fog file name (now I know the ID is the id of the map =)))

 

 

id = info =~ /ID: (\d+)/i ? $1.to_i : 010

name = info =~ /NAME: \"(.*)\"/i ? $1.dup : "fog01.png"

op = info =~ /OPACITY: (\d+)/i ? $1.to_i : 70

move = info =~ /MOVE: (\d+)/i ? $1.to_i : 17

zoom = info =~ /ZOOM: (\d+)/i ? $1.to_f : 100.0

hue = info =~ /HUE: (\d+)/i ? $1.to_i : 0

blend = info =~ /BLEND: (\d+)/i ? $1.to_i : 0

depth = info =~ /DEPTH: (\-?\d+)/i ? $1.to_i : 300

 

So it work now! But can I do the fog move automaticly?Not only then the player move?

the "x" aren't to be added, they must to be replaced, and any other not used value must be removed.

 

so this is wrong:

<fog effect>

id: x : fog ID

name: “002-Clouds01.png†: fog graphic filename (“filenameâ€)

opacity: x : fog opacity (0-255)

move: x : fog screen movement (32 = fog follows the map)

zoom: x : fog zoom (100 = default size)

hue: x : fog hue (0-360)

blend: x : fog blend type (0: normal, 1: add, 2: subtract)

depth: x : fog Z axis (300 = default value)

</fog effect>

 

this is right:

<fog effect>

id: 1

name: “002-Clouds01â€

opacity: 160

</fog effect>

add only the vaules that you want really to change, the values that will stay the same must be omitted, as stated on the instructions, you must add a filename and id. (and in your example you didn't)

Also there's no need to add the file extension.

 

(now I know the ID is the id of the map =)))

Wrong to, the ID has nothing to do with the map ID, the id is an arbitrary value used as indentifier, so you can manage the fogs if you use more than one fog at same time.

 

And i highly suggest to not mess with the script itself, since it's looks that you don't really know what you're doing.

Well. So u mean I must just load the script and put this

<fog effect>

id: 1

name: "Fog01"

opacity: 77

</fog effect>

(in my case) in Map Properties > Notes?

it should work? without any changes in the script?

I did it with your default script and don't work!!!

You didn't do this exactly as you posted, because if you did, it would work, unless you don't have a "Fog01" on the fogs folder.

I just copy/pasted this code you posted and it worked fine.

 

to add fog movement add the code after the fog effect

<fog move id: x, y>

 

BTW.: there was a bug with movement, that was only moving horizontally, so you should update the script.

Line 242 is "def scroll_down(distance)

So it's surely a compatibility issue, not a problem with the script.

Wordpress.com sometimes can be tricky with some ISP. Sometimes I also have problems to open wordpress.com page, just wait about 5 minutes and it will be back.

You are using the same id for both fogs...make one of them 1 and the other 2.
