Lomexi's Battle Theme Adjuster

Version 1.10
by Dean 'Lomexi' Lynch [mroan_brolli@hotmail.com]
Release Date: 6th April 2008

Version History

1.10
- Fixed a problem where the user was unable to continue new Map BGM after
a Boss Type Battle. (See: Possibilties)
- Fixed minor problem where the Battle Test window would not close after
the battle had ended.
- Fixed a problem where if the player escaped during a Boss Type Battle,
the BGM would continue. This was likely to be undesirable.
(See: Possibilties)


1.00
- Initial Release.

Features:
- Turn Battle BGM and Victory ME ON or OFF.
- Able to continue with current (usually map) BGM throughout battles.
- Support for long Victory ME's. (Think Final Fantasy 7, 8, 9 and 10).
- If Battle BGM is off, yet Victory ME is on, the current BGM will continue
from where it paused after the Victory ME has finished.
- With a little imagination, you can give your battles a more atmospheric feel.



Possibilities:
1. Regular Battles
- These are battles; event processed or random encounters where both Battle
BGM and Victory ME play and continue back to map BGM.
Battle BGM Switch ON
Victory ME Switch ON
Map BGM Switch ON

2. Hurry! Battles
- These battles will have no Battle BGM or Victory ME. Instead, if the
user wishes, a bgm can be played and go un-disturbed until it needs to
end.
Battle BGM Switch OFF
Victory ME Switch OFF
Map BGM Switch OFF

3. Hurry! Battles #2
- These battles will play Victory ME but have no Battle BGM. The Hurry BGM
will play up untill Victory ME, then resume when the battle ends.
Battle BGM Switch OFF
Victory ME Switch ON
Map BGM Switch OFF

4. Boss Type Battle
- These are battles where the enemy BGM is played before the battle
processing event. This BGM will play all the way up untill the enemy
is defeated (Victory ME) or the player escapes.
Battle BGM Switch OFF
Victory ME Switch ON
Map BGM Switch ON

There are several other possibilities, these are just the ones that stick
out.


Important:
- BY DEFAULT BOTH BATTLE BMG AND VICTORY ME ARE OFF. THIS IS TO AVOID
CONFUSION WHEN USING GAME SWITCHES.
- Changing default Battle BGM or Victory ME using game events will NOT
disrupt this script.

Instructions:
- Place above main.
- Edit the config module to select which switches control the script.
- Switches are edited using game events.
- Please, play the demo and study the events for a clearer view on how this
script works.

Authors Notes:
- This is my very first script. I consider myself a novice.

Sweet as a nut man, I need this kind of script, Now I can do an FF7 type intro with music undisturbed in my battles

[darkkyros]

This is Freaking Sweet! Thanks, this will greatly help out. Great on this as your first script.

EDIT: Oh, is there any way you could make it so when the BGM is running through battle that the ME will still play when the battle is finished? When I try to have both of them on, It changes back to original Battle music. I hope that made sense. =/

Nice! Great work, for your first script

[Mech-Ah]

I don't understand how to change the musik on and off. Can you clear the fog a bit?
What kind of script I should call, and what number?

[onimusuko]

cool script! what i wanna ask is it is possible to play individual BGS and Battle music at the same time, cuz i want an eerie howl playing through the battle where the heroes fight the werewolves.

You want ME to continue or the new BGM? With the new version I have added support for continuing new BGMs started before battle.

There is no call scripts. Edit this section of the script:

module THEME_CONFIG
#Game switch to configure Battle BGM:
BATTLE_BGM_SWITCH = 1
#Game switch to configure Victory ME:
VICTORY_ME_SWITCH = 2
end

Change 1 and 2 to the switches you desire. Then simply turn the swiches on or off using events. Hope that makes sense.

cool script! what i wanna ask is it is possible to play individual BGS and Battle music at the same time, cuz i want an eerie howl playing through the battle where the heroes fight the werewolves.

Are the werewolves random encounters or battle processed? Either way there is no support for BGS atm. If you can explain in detail what you mean, maybe I will add BGS support with future versions.

ah yes, it is for boss battle

[lahandi]

This is great script mate!

Anyway, is there a way if we want to 'modified' something like, for the 1st Boss we use 'Song1' , for the 2nd Boss we use 'Song2', and so on?

Thanks

Just use change battle bgm in the event before you start the events for the battle

[TheBloodRed]

I used an ambient with them built in. It is quite creepy though. xD

Try Purgatory's Pond by Manheim Streamroller.

[Ratty524]

I was waiting for this type of script. Nice job.

[Ember]

Sweet as a nut man,

..Aren't nuts usually savoury?

This is a useful script. At first I thought "Apsh I'd never use it".. Then I read the examples. Yay

[aevonhaldy]

This seems pretty dang neat; I'd like to try it. ...--But is there any way someone could post it as a TXT file for those of us who have trouble with code boxes?

Thanks.

----EDIT----

Never mind. I got it too work for me. ...Although, there still may be other unfortunate souls out there who need a text download...

--I look forward to making my battles more atmospheric! Thanks!

Very useful script. However, did anyone else have a problem where after you copied the script and pasted it in your game the code would appear going horizontally across the script page (instead of vertically in each line)? Please help me.

Open the thread in firefox, THEN copy the script, you'll find it will paste perfectly.

Another way to do it is to paste it into a word DOC and then copy and paste it into your scripts page.

[sillypieman]

Thank you SO much for this script .

[fantasy]

Nice script, I had to add a stop BGM event for when the victory plays, as i got an error
when my victory plays, my battle music then continued to play, not my map music, so i had to correct that, it might not be a problem for most,
but i use a side view battle and it might conflict with ur script,
nice script, as this will help me out lots

ps, add

RPG::BGM.stop

to the line in the victory part, if you victory music switch is on, as this sorts out my above error

please don't credit me for this fix as i don't wanna steal the spotlight of Dean, as he has done a good job!!!
I need this as am doing my 1st boss scene now

Thanks
