RMVX BATTLE SYSTEM

Hey, look, another question.

Anyway, to the topic. I wanna make a game that has a battle system similar to the GBA Legend of Zelda games. Is there a way to make the battle system so you're not teleported to some location and forced to fight during your turn? I know that this will take the creation of more graphics for the main character as well as certain enemies, but I think it would be cool if I pulled it off. I checked the scripts section and couldn't find a thing, any help?

I'm not familiar with the games in question. Are they adventure games like your standard Zelda game, where you swing your sword and move in real time?
Yeah, I just said GBA-style as obviously I couldn't make a Ocarina of Time style game in RMXV.

So battle would be like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFYQcekTwAU
Though there will be less special items as used in this fight. The sword is the only item equipped that is actively used (unless I can find a way to have a similar item system.

There exist a few ABS scripts that can do this but as of my last check they were all VERY unstable, prone to lag, crashes, and so on. I'm doing a bit of research for you, but honestly, it's research you could easily have done yourself, by typing "RPG Maker VX ABS" into google. Fair point if you didn't know that ABS stood for "Action Battle System" but generally speaking you might get better results if you were a little bit more self sufficient. : )

This is an illustrative example of a typical ABS script--very impressive but unstable and difficult to use.

There have been EXCELLENT action games made in VX, but they are not the type you're looking for, and their battle systems are not available as plug and play scripts.
OR this . I remember Anaryu allows the use of this system. Ask him just in case =v=)b

If he does, that's AWESOME. I wish more people were that AWESOME. (Although there's still the vast gulf between "allows use of the system" and "provides newb-friendly documentation and support" unfortunately.)
Ah, thank you both. I feel like by at least giving me somewhere to start with is gonna be incredibly helpful. Thanks.
