I know it's possible - how do you lock a picture to a tile, rather than to the screen? I've seen it done with light or shadow effects. Does anyone know the way? I suspect it may have something to do with positioning the picture according to the tileID, but I've been experimenting and can't seem to figure it out.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Are you sure you've seen this done? I mean what it sounds like is that that person, who did that, just made got a really developed sprite (they exist). I've seen this done with multiple events. I think the guy created a script to make them into a picture. (I think this was done in Xas too)

Hmm, possibly. Thank you for the reply.

Perhaps I've been looking at this the completely wrong way. I may have to focus more on advanced sprites rather than using pictures. I appreciate the suggestion.

This would be almost trivial to do with a script. Why are you insistent on using events?

I'm not skilled with scripting. Eventing is much easier and more familiar for me. The only scripting I can do is tweaking other peoples premade scripts.

Picutures are supposed to follow the screen, and making it to follow the map with eventing would be really a pain...

Well most of the light effects scripts don't use the RMXP standard show picture command. They use their onw methods do show and position the images.

I any case, i know this script that allows you to "lock" the pictures on map coordinates
