[RMMV] PLAYING ANIMATIONS UNDER THE CHARACTER

Hi RMN, it's been too long. How ya doin?

I'm having a relatively minor problem with animations in RMMV. I'm using Victor's Cast animations for my battlers, which works about as well as I want it to. Problem is, I need some of the animations to appear UNDER the actor, not over it like seems to be the only option. I've searched around without finding a solution, I suspect this is something easy I'm just too dense to figure out. Also, since I'm using some other Victor-reliant scripts, is the solution is anything related to Yanfly's Battle Core that's out. Any points in the right direction would help, otherwise I'll have to scrap this not-very-important feature.

Also, if anyone knows of any plugins that can change the speed of some animations but not others, that'd be sweet!
