~[RPG Tankentai Battle System 2.6 Trans+Addons]~ Options

When I change my battler to $Charactername_1, it insists I need to make Actor1 Named Ralph and so on. I thought it had to match the name of the actor in the database? I made it so it was $Ralph_1 and it works, but I have more than 4 party members and I don't want Ralph to be the name I use...

It doesn't use the character name at all. The only things that need to match up if you are using animated battlers is the $charname and $charname_1 - the REAL name of your character is not referenced by this script at all. For all the script cares, if your charset is $joe then your animated batter sprite needs to be called $joe_1 - Meanwhile, your characters name can be whatever you want it to be. Go to your actor tab, I'm sure the sprite you have set up is $ralph for his graphic.

[Tenchu-San]

That is exactly it, thanks for clearing that up for me.

[dragondp1]

When I play the game with the new scripts you made, In a battle the enemy is in its orginal spot and the party members are just in a jumbles mess on the right side of the screen. What did i do wrong? Thanks! (You can e-mail me too)

[Kylock]

You need to make sure your characters are using $ type sprites.

[Ratty524]

Does your explanation for setting the battler graphics to Minkoff capability work for enemy battlers as well as actor battlers?

[dragondp1]

How do you make it where you use $ type sprites?

[Tenchu-San]

Type $ in front of the file name o.O

[Kylock]

Does your explanation for setting the battler graphics to Minkoff capability work for enemy battlers as well as actor battlers?

Animated enemy battlers will be rendered using the same methods as the actor sprites. So configuration is identical.

[dragondp1]

I really need help, i set my file types (Character) as $ (Example:$Ulrika) and when i go into a battle it just mixes everything around on the right side. It goes through "Actor 1" Instead of my character. What do i do?

[Hobonicus]

I have a few problems. :/

First off, the order that the characters step forward is the opposite of their actual position. (for example, when I decide what the first character's attack will be, the bottom character steps forward)

Also, and this one is what I'd really like to fix, whenever my characters begin attacking, some of them attack at the same time and seem to do a single damage amount (not 1 damage, but as if only one character attacked). In general everything goes very fast and everyone (including the enemies) attack with split second intervals.

Hopefully I'm explaining this well enough, thanks a million for any help.

If this script acts differently in your game than it does in the demo, chance are incredibly good that you are having script conflict issues.

[Hobonicus]

Thanks for the quick reply.

I thought i had tried removing my other scripts but... I guess I hadn't, thanks for making me double check... sorry for taking your time for such an obvious question.

Hey Kylock!

This translation is wonderful! It's working perfectly for me after a few tweaks for compatibility but I am still having one problem I can't seem to work out involving compatibility with this Weapon Unleash script by Dargor: Could you help me out? Thanks!

Hey Kylock!

This translation is wonderful! It's working perfectly for me after a few tweaks for compatibility but I am still having one problem I can't seem to work out involving compatibility with this Weapon Unleash script by Dargor: Could you help me out? Thanks!

This won't work without a ton of work. The unleash script will need to be mostly rewritten. Unfortunately, I don't have the time for this right now, and It would take a back seat to many other requests I have queued up at this time.

[tarukyaffxi]

oh.. okay. Thank you anyway.

[sithious]

With the help of Kylock himself, I have managed to come up with customisations to the script that will enable the use of KADUKI's battle sprites. It took a while but the work is done and here's the result:

CODE

Modifications:

ANIME = {
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ? Battler Animations
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # No. Graphics file used.
  #             0 = Default Battler Style
  #             1 = "Character Name + _n", where n is the number of the pose
  #             Example of file would be "$Ralph_1"
  #             Use "1" for non-standard battler, like Minkoff's.
  #
  # Type   - Vertical position of cell files (0-3)
  # Speed  - Refresh rate of animation. Lower numbers are faster
  # Loop   - 0 = Continuous Loop
  #          1 = Loop Once
  #          2 = No Loop
  # Wait   - Time in frames before animation loops
  # Fixed  - How and weither to animate horizontal frames
  #        -1 = Loop Animation
  #          0 = Regular Animation
  #          1 = Fixed Animation
  # Z      - Set animation's Z priority
  # Shadow - Set true to display battler shadow during animation
  # Weapon - Weapon animation to play with action

                          "OBJ_ANIM_WEIGHT","Can Collapse","24","COORD_RESET"],

I hope you can use this to produce an addon Kylock, since my scripting skills are to weak to do so myself. Everything works perfectly and I hope this will be of some help to you.

Thanks for all the help you've given me! You da man!

Umm... I'm not sure if this is a problem with this script but it's only happened since I added it to my game...

At the end of a battle, I get this message:

Script 'Game_Actor' line 560: ArgumentError occurred.

too few argument.

And I have no idea why!

This is what's on the line:

text = sprintf(Vocab::ObtainSkill, skill.name)

And here it is in context:

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Show Level Up Message
# new_skills : Array of newly learned skills
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
def display_level_up(new_skills)
$game_message.new_page
text = sprintf(Vocab::LevelUp, @name, Vocab::level, @level)
$game_message.texts.push(text)
for skill in new_skills
text = sprintf(Vocab::ObtainSkill, skill.name) <------------ Here's the line!
$game_message.texts.push(text)
end
end

Hope you can help!

This CBS does nothing to modify the sprintf method in any way. I very much doubt its this script that's causing your problem. If you take this script out and it works, then its the combination of this script and another script you have that's causing the error.

[Hobonicus]

Is there any way to make this work with the Dragon Gene System? http://www.rpgrevolution.com/forums/?showt...=40#entry157196

When ascension is used, the sprite doesn't change. Also, the action windows move further off the screen after each turn.

I'd prefer to respond than ignore you, since this is my thread, but this post is more appropriate for the script requests forum.

To answer your question, I'm sure there's a way to make it work, but it won't be quick and easy.
