[RMVX ACE] Adding Subtle Motion To Face Sprites?

So, I know there's a non-script way to create effects with face sprites, using the "show picture" event command and moving said picture a little, or by using a script and doing it frame by frame, but that would be really time-consuming in my situation, especially with how my project is laid out.

I'm looking for a script, or for someone to help me out with creating one that adds subtle motion to face sprites, i.e., maybe just slightly wiggling or moving left and right side to side. I can't name many games, for example, that do this, but In Hotline Miami, the characters face rotates a small bit in cutscenes? Can anyone help or suggest a script to replicate that kind of effect?

Example:

A.I. Generation and RMN

I was hesitant to post my thoughts on this topic because my views on AI would probably be disliked, but this has to be said.

This is a pretty awful move in my opinion from this site that restricts a lot of upcoming talent. I don't understand why it's cool and quirky to steal assets from other games, but then not use AI for a simple grass texture or reference; in that case, is tracing something from Google also comparable? That's all the algorithm did, was trace out a new grass texture.

You can train AI with data sets that are in the public domain. There are ethical and unethical ways to handle AI, but using this "We don't accept AI-generated content" and thinking it's a magic bullet, then trying to convince some person that his MS Paint art is amazing because AI is bad, is stupid; that's not the point.

Perhaps it just isn't the polish level the developer is looking for; game development takes years to master, and sometimes people lack in certain areas. Really, it's just like using free asset packs.

It's up to the developer, not a bunch of moderators, I don't know it personally seems oddly disingenuous.

Second off, how will you find out about every game that uses AI? You just can't purge random games because you assume they have AI-generated content; it's just going to be a mess and waste a lot of time. I don't even like or use AI, but as a tool, I really don't mind others using it, I don't understand this Twitter mindset of AI art being bad. You can't replace the passion that humans can put into art pieces; even if they use AI to help them, as long as they aren't selling it, there shouldn't be a problem.

The point is that this is a hobbyist website; really, this shouldn't be up to a site's admins; this is up to the developer, as I will be truthful this site has a problem with the admins enforcing there beliefs on any given topic, and creating a chamber of only people who agree with said given belief.

A.I. Generation and RMN

Aw, shucks, now my 10 year 20 hour long AI JRPG epic, has to be canceled, because you all don't understand the greatness of Artificial Intelligence, I fired all of my fellow team members and replaced them with AI cause I believe, yet you all do not believe.

hi!!! the game is awesome!!! but im stuck in the beginning.. in the internet location.. i dont knopw what to do? i need to write to squiggly or find the roms but i cant do either :( plz help im begging.................
Sorry you got stuck my freind! To progress the game from that point, check the game controller in Pistol Face and Mage's house in front of the TV, it's accessible after beating the Witch fight.
The internet also has a door at the very bottom to the lower right that'll spit you out there, or, you can just walk there normally, hope this helps!

[RMVX ACE] Opening An External .txt File In Game

So in my game, there's a help option that you can access off the menu. I want it to open an external .txt file using a script call or some method in game. I used to know how to do this, but I've forgotten the exact script call that you needed to do it, I don't remember needing a script but if you did can someone please tell me how or what to do?

Being Yellow Magic

This game is incredible, it's certainly the complete "entering Yellow Magic's mind experience" through a first person view! I love the live action cut scenes, they really make the game feel more novel and unique!

Today Is My 18th Birthday!

So today is my birthday, I'm finally the big boy number of 18, my talented and lovely GF surprised me with this cake that was based on the main character of the current RPG I'm developing! I thought I'd show it off on here, I'm just so overwhelmingly happy! I'm just amazed by her gift, she drew the images on separately, but the cake was baked, and her art is really good! I'm thankful for her and all of you on this site who have supported me, I joined this site when I was 14 but now I'm 18, damn time flies! I might be more busy with my adult life now, but I'll never stop game making! ~Peace
