Jack's Advanced Event Demo, 21 DLs so far... Options

[Alt_Jack]

Well, it's finally here: my event demo. It's recommended for advanced users (which is apparently eveyone on here) but it contains a lot of tips for people starting to get familiar with the VX event system. The nice part is that it also includes a bunch of images and facesets from my collection, and is built off of one of the YERD script demos, so it's worth the time.
It's sort of a bit of a rush job, so there may be a few kinks in it, but it seemed fine when I ran through it. If I find any problems (or anyone else does), just let me know and I'll see what I can do. Just remember to download (and read, obviously) the text file first, since it tells you what's going on and answers a number of questions you may have.


Before you Play
Demo version 1.5

[Show/Hide] update Aug. 10

-In the breeder event, there's a "jump to label: normal" in one of the events. The problem is that I put a comment instead of a label, but luckily it works anyways. So just change the comment to a label.

-for the HellFIRE event, I'm not sure if I included this but make a parallel process event, with this code:

condition branch: if timer = 1 sec or less
-switch kill =ON (blows everything up...)
play animation - player - no attrib. (....including you)
switch kill= OFF
game over
return to title screen


- the lake is finally fixed. Above the choice box and in between the switch for swimming, put this:

set move route - player - wait 600 frames (10 s, if I understand it correctly)

uncheck "wait until completion" (so you don't have to) and check/turn on "repeat action". It will loop the wait command, but still run the event. Even if it doesn't, you gave yourself some extra time.

Aug. 29 2011 - updated to Demo 1.5 with a ton of other features.

Well particularly the Teleport room. Direction fix wasn't taken off on the one that teles you to the right, and the one that teles you to the right freezes the game. Quick and easy fixes. Bugged none-the-less.

Also, perhaps it was because of accessing the player synth room using the GPS, but the left and right doors sometimes didn't do what I expected them to. If I understand correctly, the left door does opposite sex pairings, and the right door does same-sex pairing. Or, something like that at least. Well they seemed to do the same thing. And when I tried pairing on the left, even though it let me select the pair I wanted, it didn't combine them until I went to the right door and tried it. And I suppose it's just unfilled data, but it didn't let me pair some people.

Your timer event on the chicken minigame didn't even count down. I had to GPS out of it. Easy fix. It just stopped prematurely. Or maybe a script interfered. Also you know you don't even have a requirement for chicken wings on the lady who requests them. You can hit the last option and give her nothing and she'll reward you the same.

Also what are the requirements to enter the mt of moons, because at present it doesn't seem to be accessible. Also not a lot in the demo is explained. I had to start in the test room to figure out A accesses the menu and not X.
