DRENRIN2120'S PROFILE

I can't remember. It was buried in one of the threads on this board. Try using the search engine.

The patch in question works great. The charasets are mangled when you view them through the preview window in the event editors, but render just fine in game.

The format for proper rendering was naming them as such

%xxyyname

Where % was just literally '%', presumably to alert the patch to handle this spritesheet differently, xx and yy were representative of a single animated frame divided by 4, and the name was more than 6 characters. If the name portion is less than 6 characters, it crashes the executable for some reason. Also important to note that if, after division, you end up with a single digit, you have to add a 0 in front of that single digit due to formatting issues.

Example:

%0715Triceratops

...would be a 28 x 60 charaset of what we might safely assume, or hope, would be a triceratops. The actual size of the spritesheet would have to be 84 x 240 (3 columns, 4 rows) in order to render correctly.

There isn't any other information you could give?

<PROBLEM SOLVED>

I've been asking a lot of questions lately and have received an amazing amount of help and I do have to thank the community for that. This will likely be my last request for a good while, so bare with me!

I was wondering if there were any DYN plugins or patches that allowed for something similar to Char Expand Patch for rm2k3 and not just rm2k. I've searched for hours and can't find anything.

EDIT: NEVER MIND, I found another lovely hidden patch by bugmenot that provides the same kind of functionality as 2kCharExpand patch for rm2k3.

This is all related to Cherry's patches and work-arounds for rm2k3.

I've downloaded the Better Auto-Entry patched RPG_RT v1.08 and can successfully patch it again using Hyper Patcher 2.01 to allow 126 pictures instead of only 50. The problem is, following the steps laid out on Cherry's site, you have to then again open up the RPG_RT using resource hacker and edit some strings. Specifically...

RCDATA → TFORMEVCMD11110 → 0

When I open the RPG_RT file in resource hacker, the only path I can find that is similar but not exactly the path laid out above is...

RCDATA → TFORMLCFGAMEMAIN → 0

When I select "0", I receive a pop-up notification informing me "Stream read error", and I can't access it.

I already thought maybe this was connected to the fact I used a pre-patched version of RPG_RT, but even clean versions of RPG_RT v1.08 give me the same problem with the same path differing from the one outlined in Cherry's tutorial from his site.

I'm at a loss. I've done this before using an older windows OS and had no problem patching the Better-Auto Entry RPG_RT using cherry's Hyper Patcher 2. Could it be Windows 8.1? That seems unlikely but I just don't see what I'm doing wrong.

Any help or assistance from people who have experience with the Hyper Patcher would be greatly appreciated!

I know cherry's Hyper Patcher 2 does this, but it only works for rm2000. I was wondering if there were any resources or DYNplugins available that could swap the overlay priorities so that pictures appear above battle animations?
