MODE 7 for VX Version 1.5 REUPLOADED LINK

Author: Dusk Noun
Based on the original script by: 2chan web page
Version: 1.5

Features

Displays the map in conic perspective to create a 3-D feeling

From BETA to 1.5

I've been working on this script and i've changed the politic of it.

- Use a variable to declare if mode 7 is on or off and a method to display/dispose fader

- Corrected Mapping Guide

- Reduced classes creation increasing compatibility.

# ■ Mode 7 Script 1.5 for RMVX #
# |-> Author: Dusk Noun (24/1/09) #
# '-> Based on the original Script: 2chan (http://www.2ch.net/) #
#==============================================================================#
# ■ Chronology #
# |-> Analyzed the original script by 2chan #
# |-> Edit useful methods and created the needed windows #
# |-> BETA release -> Made the mode 7 independent with 2 bugs #
# '-> 1.5 -> Made the mode 7, you can evade bugs with work #
#==============================================================================#
# ■ Emproved from BETA #
# |-> Possibility to switch on/off the mode 7 #
# |-> Possibility to switch on/off the fader (evaded bug) #
# '-> Corrected mapping guide #
#==============================================================================#
# ■ Developing ideas #
# |-> Parallax on looped maps #
# |-> Angle settable #
# |-> Fix side-scrolling bitmap bug #
# '-> Add depth to characters #
#==============================================================================#
# ■ Notes of the author #
# - To avoid missunderstandings: I didn't create this script. I looked on the #
# script of the 2chan page (designed only for airships) and i made another #
# script based on it. So, I OWN this if they're credit as base script. I #
# haven't stolen anyone's idea. #
# - This is a BETA version. It's still developing so it shall have bugs #
#==============================================================================#
# ■ Instructions #
# - Place it above main #
# - $game_map.mode3D controls the on/off Mode 7 #
# - Call draw_fader (n) to put as fader n graphic (in pictures folder), put #
# nil to dispose the fader -> draw_fader(nil) #
#==============================================================================#
# ■ Compatibility #
# - This script changes the spriteset_map class and makes other 2 classes. No #
# compatibility errors detected but they could be #

# MODE 7 MAPPING GUIDE #

=begin

One of the problems of this script is, the rules you need to respect to make a
map in perspective.

The 1st thing you need to know is, this script ONLY affects the map vision. The
players & events layer aren't touched, maybe in the 1st FINISHED release...

So you must repect the rules.

1. The fader
The fader is an image put over the events layer to simulate an horizont. It can
resemble useless but if we don't have it, the scrolling events will crash the
3-D enviroment. It's hard to explain, i'll try it:
Normally, the floor covers all the screen and the events scroll from up to
down always in the floor. But with Mode 7, the floor doesn't cover all the
screen, it leaves 3 rows (in this angle) without covering, and the scrolling
isn't touched so when the events are in those 3 rows, they're in the air. The
effect is that you'll see the events falling from the sky. The fader covers
those 3 lines so the events are shown only when they're in the floor. That way
you don't solve the problem but you neither see it.

To display a fader, call method draw_fader(i). If i's nil, fader will dispose..
Any other way, the variable must have the name of a graphic in pictures folder.
Note that that graphic must only cover the upper size. You can use the deafult
one for not making a new one.

NOTE: the draw_fader doesn't update never, if you start with a map with fader.
Call it in an autorun event. It's recommended to call it before transfering
the player to a new room, such as $game_map.mode3D to avoid the 1st frame of
the new room without the settings (if you call them on an autorun event, 1st
frame won't be affected by the event).

2. Vertical loop
If you have the vertical loop on or a map with a larger height than the screen
you must put a fader to avoid the events falling from sky when they appear at
the top of the screen.

If you don't have a vertical loop, you have the risk to end walking on the air.
To avoid that, i've calculated: the floor ends in the 3rd row from up to down.
So if you put a wall of non-sprite but solid and with the same priority as
characters events (to block the pass) in the 3rd row, you won't pass from the
floors limit.

3. Horizontal loop
If you put horizontal loop, you'll have no problem, just a view bug that will
dissappear once you've walked a bit.

If you don't put it, you'll have the problem as with non-vertical loop, you can
end walking in the air. And with the vertical, it was a line to block the pass,
but here there's no precision. If you don't block the pass, you end in tha air
and if you block it, there'sa piece of floor you can't pass. The best way is:
Put an empty event on the 2nd extremes tiles of the 4th row:
-------------
| || | | || | (4th row)
-------------
And put an empty event in the extremes of the 5th and 6th rows (you can get
inspired in the 3rd map of the demo if you have doubts.)

NOTE: all the tiles where to put empty events are thought for an angle of 60, if
you change the angle, everything changes.

NOTE: When you put a long height and none horizontal looped map... just as the
other non-looped maps, horizontally there's no problem untill the end of
the map.

DO NOT DO THIS
In mode 7, the map tileset is the floor and events are the rest. Don't make
buildings with map tiles or combine events with tiles. To draw buildings use
events with tiles sprite. Get inspired with the 1st map of the demo.

NOTE: $game_map.mode3D variable updates every frame so declare it true or false
before switching to a map.

Bugs

- In horizontal looped maps, sometimes the floor isn't fully drawn. walk a bit to fix it.

Compatibility

- This script changes the spriteset_map and game_map classes and makes other 2 classes. Anyways there were aliased methods on the classes so they're compatible with other scripts. No compatibility errors detected but they could be.

To future users

-This script ONLY affects the floor view. The event are still without depth. So to create maps in Mode 7, you must respect some rules. You can learn those rules by trying and failing or reading the mapping guide, within the script. Anyways, in the demo you have models of all mode 7 possible maps and some minimal rules of mapping, but you must read the guide to map succesfully your rooms in perspective.

EDIT

Well, since the links wherebroken, my apologize for the delay when rescuing this script, and here it is:

PS: Sorry for this ugly presentation. I'm not good at decorating.

NOTE: those links will fall sooner or later, PM me to re-upload them when that happens.

THIS IS TO CALL THE ATTENTION OF EVERY FUTURE USERS OF THIS SCRIPT. THIS DOUBT WON'T BE ANSWERED ANYMORE.

I was creating a reply of the RGSS202E.dll and i forgot to remove it. So the demo crashes because the dll isn't working properly. If you delete it, the RGSS2 Player should load the one from the RTP. Do it so

Actually, the emoticons is something i hate from this forum. They're not in the script but when a script has

together (for example), the web makes an emoticon. I'll correct it soon, till then, get it from the demo.

Hello, i thought this script was seen by anyone when it ended on 3rd page but it wasn't.

OK, i've checked the 1.5 demo and it works properly.
And for the tiles replaced, i need a project to see it and correct it myself, have you used any KGC Tileset script?
The m7 graphic is within the demo, so as the script without emoticons. I'll upload them soon but untill you can take them from there.

reijubv

May 2 2009, 12:02 AM

Yes I used KGC tileset extension script,
I'll make a demo with both your script and KGC's and tell you again tomorrow,
the bug is, autotiles will looks really messed up when moving the actor with mode7 activated...

EDIT:
Sorry, Im really sorry, but the one that doesn't compatible with mode7 IS NOT KGC TILESET EXTENSION SCRIPT!!
It is a 8 direction movement script THAT IS THE ONE WICH IS NOT COMPATIBLE!

I've tried KGC 8 direction movement and another one, and both didn't compatible with mode7,

Again, I'm sorry for this...

Mode 7 never makes the sprites and what not in "3D." Mode 7 is only used for the tiles. Its basically just a way of teasing the playing, making them think that the game is really being played in 3D.

Well, I would advise not to use a fader. It tends to cause problems. If you can, try using the script minus the fader.

Jun 8 2009, 08:58 PM

But if I don't use the fader, the events that I have set up on the map tend to "float" away or move to the sky.

The instructions that are in the script said to use the fader to hide the moving events or something like that.

WAIT! I just fixed it! I went into the Picture Folder and renamed "fader" as "sky" Then back to my game's map and deleted the event that called the "fader" and made a parallel event to show the "fader"(sky) as a picture. I did a test play and entered the menu and BOOM! The fader did not Interfere with the menu! Problem solved!

Man, i thought i've been out for so long... Anyways you've solved that problem yourself. It's just a question of a parameter. The image has an x, y and z. The x and y set the position, and the z sets it's priority in the view, just reduce the z variable of the image and your problem will be solved. The default RM images has less z than the windows, that's why it worked, but i'll make a patch to reduce the z of the fader and make it useful with the HUDs menu scripts.

And one thing:

[Show/Hide] Immage

like conic perspective (conic perspective for map and CHARSET)

[Show/Hide] Immage 1

[Show/Hide] Immage 2

[Show/Hide] Immage 3

how to do the conic perspective in your mode7 VX script?
In a TOPIC of old version of your script you post it:

[Show/Hide] Always Conic perspective Code

Well, it depends also on the CPU, maybe you've got too loaded the pc. But i know this script sometimes causes some lag. Ruby isn't a compiled language so it's very slow, maybe reduce some statements could help, i'll see if i can but nowadays i'm pretty busy so it's gonna take it's time.

About your english. Sorry but i don't understand italian so i can't speak to you that way. But i've seen you have the idea that this script is like the XP one. It's very different, it doesn't have even the half of the features but it's very tough to make it on VX, this is just a map on perspective leaving actor and events normally and a fader, so, an optic illusion appears, Mode 7. The floor is the map, to make objects over the floor (including houses or walls) use events. You son't need to put anything on mapname, and even if you do it, it won't change anything.

The 'event bug' as I call it is still very present in Mode 7 for VX, though I figured out ways around it. There are three things you can do when it comes to events while Mode 7 is on. The first is that you can create the specific event, and place it on the map but keep it invisible..meaning no sprite attached to it. Ergo no one will see the event moving, and it'll work as it is supposed to. The second thing you can do is if you want to use an "event-only" sprite (say a vehicle) you can take out that specific sprite that you need, and place it somewhere within Tiles B - E. Now you can 'map' the sprite you want, and it'll stay in a fixed position (though it won't be animated). Attach an invisible event to that sprite, and you should be good to go.

The third method is tricky. You can put the event in question on the map, put no sprite associated with it (make it invisible), and when the player reaches a certain point on the map (you would have to continually test this) where the event in question is where you want it to be, then trigger a switch where the event's sprite is seen. It's not hard to event out, though you'd have to continuously playtest to see just where the event is corresponding to where the player is walking, and so on. I hope this has helped some.

Kread-EX

No you can't. Neo Mode 7 for XP could do it and MGC made a tool to import those maps in VX.

Mar 11 2012, 08:14 PM

I think I found a workaround, but it requires some bug fixing. In a nutshell, it involves using this script in conjunction with the Anti-Lag script which ceases processing of events far enough from the player, and making the trees, mountains, towns, towers etc event sprites. But I found the funniest bug ever: events that are not processed due to being far from player start moving with the player around him, like a box, when in Mode7. If this bug is fixed, it'll be possible to create some cool-looking Mode7 maps for VX.
