Yggdrasil ABS

Version: 1.6
Author: IceDragon
Release Date:02/15/2011


Originally posted on RPGMakerVX.net, posted on RPG RPG Revolution with author's permission.


Introduction
Yggdrasil is a Large Addon based ABS (Active Battle System). Unlike most ABS's though, this one can be switched on and off, so you could theoretically have this system, GTBS, and whatever you want for the 3^rd system

Script
This ABS comes in many parts, so grab the demo.

Features/Customization
The biggest feature of Yggdrasil is customization through event-based comments. Yggdrasil also has the ability to have "Monster Generators", something that most ABS's can't do easily, if at all. Yggdrasil also ships with YEM Keyboard Input, and it's highly recommended you use it.

Compatibility
Shouldn't be any compatibility issues, since it doesn't do anything to Scene_Battle. Contact IceDragon with any issues.

Screenshot
You need to see it in action, trust me. Just grab the demo.

DEMO
http://www.mediafire.com/?dh4h0tk3kgmb7sq

Installation
Place under "Materials", above "Main".

FAQ
All questions are to be directed at IceDragon on RPGMakerVX.net, since this is his masterpiece

Terms and Conditions
You'll need to ask IceDragon for permission to post this on other sites, as well as wether or not he'll allow this script to be used in a commercial project.

Credits
All credit goes to IceDragon; he made this ABS, all I'm doing is "spreading the love".

Contact Info

For now, the only option is to go to RPGMakerVX.net and either post your question on the Yggdrasil thread there, or send him a PM.

wow this is really awesome
I have a lot of work to do changing my game from requiem to this

[KillerRed9]

I have one VERY important question for you, and Yggdrasil, and IceDragon:

[Show/Hide] Question!

Wanna make out?

LOL JUST KIDDING!!

Seriously though, I love you guys for putting this on RPGRevolution. If you hadn't done so, I would've never found this. It is much more sleek than the Vampire Ludis thingy... (NO OFFENSE VLAD), and it has a lot of goodies

Anyways, thanks for putting it on here. If this forum had a rep system, thanking system... etc...

[dartdaman]

munkis just to let you know IceDragon has released a new version of this ABS its 1.5b
I was just telling you so you could update this topic so people could use the newer version

[munkis]

Thanks for letting me know. I've been trying unsuccessfully to contact him to ask which version in his mediafire folder was current.

/me goes to update ABS

[munkis]

Updating this post with a little bad news: My main PC (the one with the link to IceDragon's MediaFire folder) crashed recently, so updates to Yggdrasil may be slower than normal in coming. I'm trying to contact Ice to see if he's willing to re-send the link to the back-up PC I'm using right now, but for now I wouldn't advise holding your breath.

EDIT: Got the link from IceDragon, so I'll be able to update this ABS normally.

To be 100% honest this ABS script is better then the others, it doesn't have a very good party feature, but other then that it's amazing. It has a very fast paced action game to it. I stand by this ABS being my all time favorite.

I give it 9/10 only reason it loses that point is because the party swap thing is, eh... They need to fight with you, once party members follow you etc, it will be a 10/10, basically what I'm saying is; perfect.

[munkis]

You mean like a caterpillar or party formation script? Or something where you can change all the party members, and not just hot-swap the leader like you can now?

I would like to see a screenshot so i can see what the HUD Looks like. Please post one.

Alright, so I added the ABS into my game but I'm having a small issue. When I get hit by an enemy or an enemy hits me, the game quits with this error:

CODE

Script 'IEX - Yggdrasal EGN - Visual' line 143: NoMethodError occured
Undefined method 'data_animations' for nil NilClass

I haven't learned the ins and outs of scripting yet, just the basics, so I don't know how to fix this myself.

[munkis]

I can't replicate the error you're having. I'd go to RPGMakerVX.net and post your problem on the Yggdrasil thread there.

did you copy the animations over to your game

[KuramaBingyi]

Question. Hopefully someone can help me.

I cheated and "copy-pasted" the Script data file into my game's Data directory. Something must have went wrong, because when I go to test my game, I get the "Unable to find file Data/MapXXX.rvdata" message. Was there something in the scripts that I needed to change, or did I have to manually copy scripts?

[dartdaman]

first off that problem is that you need to copy the Yggdrasil Item Map into your project then go into the IEX-Yggdrasil CUS-Main script and scroll down to line 300 and put in the number of the map that the item map appears in your project
your are gonna run into even more problems if you don't copy the animations into your project also

That did it. Thank you.

The demo gets bugged when I try and talk to that monster thing, it stops all your movement. Besides that it seems very cool, i dont like that type of battle system but I can see alot of other ppl do, goodwork.
