Help with new game, I need some things in my game Options

[JayD2]

So I have decided to use VX Ace, but before I go out and get this I need to be sure that I can do these things and if they are readily available to me.

First I need a different battle system. The top down, horizon battle system is dumb and I need anything else. My stipulations are that I can add my characters; the ones that I made using Ace. I also need to be able to make a enemy that looks like a human or is a human because that is my villain.

Second I need a crafting system. I have seen the advanced crafting system and I would like to use that. I just need an easy way or a very good explanation of how to add many recipes to the system.

Third is the ability to add multiple different tile sets. Before when I tried to add more then one it wouldn't let me or it would go over the previous that I added.

These are the problems I always run into when I tried to use other engines. I was told to use Ace, so before I jump into it I want to be sure that I can do these things so I don't spend countless hours only to be stopped because I can't make the game completely my own, or at least more then the average game.

Any suggestions would help, thank you for your time guys.
