[Eventing] Freerunning / Parkour System

[+ Abscond 149]

RGangsta's Evented Freerunning / Parkour System [ACE]

 

 

After playing countless hours of Sleeping Dogs and Assassin's Creed, I got inspired to make a parkour system. It's all evented so it's completely customizable.

 

Features

Vertical Wall Run

Vertical Wall Run and Jump

Vertical Wall Run and Grab + Hang + Jump

Horizontal Wall Run

Vaulting Over Small Objects (1 tile)

Vaulting Slide Over Small Objects (2 tiles)

Death From Wall Jump

 

How to Use

Think of Assassin's Creed's High Profile Mode. ;)/>

 

SHIFT = Run

SPACE = High Profile/Jump

A = Grab

Pressing and holding SHIFT along with a combination of SPACE or A, will give different results.

 

The system uses two Switches, one to turn on the freerunning mode and the other for the grabbing process. There's a slight tileset edit. I edited a tile's Passage Directions so wall hanging could be possible. Region IDs 1-15 are also used. So there's no need for events on the map. Finally, there is a use of three Variables, the first for Region ID info, the second for Player's X, and the last for Player's Y.

Very cool system! Good to learn how to work creatively with Region IDs.

Haha, I loved assasins creed so I thought I'd take a look. Good job

 

Just looking at the eventing, I think you could simplify it further for quicker setting up of maps.

For example, to vault a single object, you're checking using regions 5,6,7,8 and checking player direction. You could just have it set to one region as player direction takes care of the rest.

@BWtR

Thank you. It didn't take too long to create.

Hopefully I can come up with more ideas for evented systems.

 

@Galv

Thank you, also.

 

At first, I started out like that but it created a problem. Let's say you choose to run past an obstacle instead of into it, it'll still produce the vault animation, so I decided to use a Region ID for every direction.

[Galv 1,387]

Ah, good point, didn't think of that. Good thinking!

This would make for an awesome mini game. Especially if I pair it with my postman mini game.

PARKOUR!

You had me right when I read Parkour .

 

Awesome! I'll see what I can do with this in my game maybe!

[Grim Tuesday 1]

Thanks, guys. Glad you guys like it. I wasn't sure anyone would use it since there's not much action in RPGs.

I updated the OP and posted a video that a friend of mine made.

[+ Abscond 149]

Glad I could help. Thank you.

[Tow 6]

You're just awesome. Thanks for sharing!

[Project Infinite 0]

This looks amazing, but how do I implement it into my project?

[OneCutStudio 353]

Really cool idea. Thanks for sharing.

[Neverward 210]

Wow this is hardcore awesome. I am totally keeping this bookmarked for later!! Good job

[hiromu656 27]

That's really cool, and very well done. I really want to try this out in something.

[OogieBoogie765 12]

Could I use this system in a commercial project?

It looks very good by the way.

Yes, by all means!

[OogieBoogie765 12]

Cool thank you very much!

[Kamalot_INC 14]

This is a rather useful setup. I assume with a little adjusting it would be possible to set up different aspects of this to different characters, or be slightly disassembled in order to provide things such as a jump or climbing system. Thanks you very much!

This is a great technique! Parkour in RPG Maker VX Ace! I didn't think it was even possible. Thanks you for coming up with it!

Cheers

Once you're know to common events, Region IDs, Variables you can make own Parkour using Set Movement Route.
