WOODY'S DEMO BATTLERS

Hi guys,
I've been working on a battle test to see if I could successfully incorporate animated battlers and to find out what the best layout/format would be.
There was a lot of trial and error, but I'm satisfied that it's possible now and I'll definitely be creating such a battle asset pack.
After a lot of testing, I settled on using Yanfly's Ace Battle Engine with Galv's Battlers, and creating battler sheets similar to Holders'.
Why specifically Galv's Battlers?
There are 5 good reasons :
# 1 :
It plays nicely with Yanfly's Ace Battle System – which really helps you to organize and clean up the main battle system's layout, without changing it too radically. The general compatibility of Galv's battlers, is extremely useful.
# 2 :
It uses Holder-style battle spritesheets but allows you to specify the number of frames and rows ( like Victors' Animated Battle ).
# 3 :
It allows you to rearrange the actor battle positions with a script call. This can easily be linked to game variables and then used to change formation depending on the number of actors in your party.
This also allowed me to link a battle cursor to my actor selection.
#4
Although it's not a very in-depth script, it also seems to be extremely stable and light. It's hard to go wrong with it and the setup takes very little time.
#5
It allows for swapping out spritesheets with a scriptcall – which means you can update an actor as the game progresses.
