Event detection conditional branch

I apologize, I've been asking for help in the wrong thread. This is a different question though. Basically, what I want to do is have a conditional branch that changes the character to dead characters by detecting its distance from the character, so basically the evens in the middle and it needs to detect all around it, and then it should change into a dead person. Would be much appreciated and I will give you much love. :P

How do I make that last even call
# X and Y's

Zelda / Grand Theft Auto type battle system scripts?

I am making a game, and I thought it would be really cool if I made a city you could roam around and shoot people. So basically, I need a Zelda type battle system to start with, I was wondering if anyone knew good sources? Oh yeah and my characters are about twice the height of regular VX Ace characters. Kudos if anyone knows a good one.

It would also be great if it worked with the free movement and free jump scripts. I think I am eventually going to run into compatibility problems
----------------------------------------------
OK. I got everything I needed, I had to try different scripts but I finally got what I needed. I'm using Galvs free movement, victors animated battlers, Glavs jump ability and * Falcao Pearl ABS Liquid v3(Just had to change hit size) .

This way I can have regular side view battles, move and jump as I please (jump on tables and the counter! Hurray!) And shoot and use weapons outside of battles.

However, the only downside is Galvs free movement collides with the ABS. When you tell them to attack, they attack. However if you move they start coming towards you. But it's better then nothing, if you just attack and not move everyone will do the same. But if anyone has a fix for it, that'd be awesome.

Sideview battle script edit, help?

I need help with this battle script, I just need a little editing, I have no programming knowledge.

"SPRITE BASED SIDE VIEW BATTLE SCRIPT
RPG Maker VX Ace
Uses an actor's sprite as it's battler.

Basically, I need it to where the actor disappears when using any skill. My intention is to make them reappear in a simple battle animation. I would be very happy if anyone could help!

EDIT: Nevermind, I found a script by jets. Its basically the same thing except with walking animation. Also the character moves forward when using a attack. And I chose such a far out movement he disappears moving 2000 frame per second :

Over the hill at 24?

I thought this was going to be interesting,
Starcraft 2 as a test?
How do you know the players aren't just getting bored after playing so many years. Or less emotionally attached so your not reacting as much in tense situations?
I'm 24, and this study pisses me off :P

Custom Sprites I made.


Sprites I'm making for my game for VX Ace. Any suggestions?(The guy on the left is just a template)

Changing the generator dimensions? VX ACE

I was wondering if you could change dimensions of the generator. You can resize the file but when its outputted its cuts off what isn't in the square.

The reason being is I want to experiment using custom graphics in the generator at different dimensions. It would also be just helpful if you know any alternative methods. Like, I understand you may be able to cut the pieces out and put the character together with parts. That process sounds messy though.

How to convert RM2K3 sprites to VX ACE(And not big and clunky)




I don't know if its been done already...

Here is a example of sprite I converted to VX Ace. I realized the size was too big at double size, so I decided to bring it down to 75% of the double size picture. So 175% the original.

At first glance I realized that resizing pixels into such a ratio was pain in the ass. As it looked funny.

So, to fix that, I put the double sized image into Gimp and changed the zoom to 75% then hit print screen. Then I put it into paint and cut out the characters and changed the palette size to 75% and pasted the new resized image. I think I tinkered with the background colors too.

I can make a video if anyone wants directions. (And I can put it in the tutorials section).

Story ideas for my story so far?

Hi. I just came here for some advice. I'm making a game, but I'm making it up as I go. And for that case, I closed my game. If i can find the ultimate purpose for my game,maybe I can submit it.


However, I have some gameplay of it. Anyway, I'm going to go ahead spoil it. It might be cliche, but I'm trying to get it out of that zone.

Basically, its starts with a man, Howzer. He is about to offer (propose)Thara a clay ring, but she is grumpy so he decides to not give it to her, but then he accidently drops it. She becomes even more frustrated and she begins hitting him.

It was Howzers idea for the clay ring. She hated it so much because he promised her wealth by now. But, the path he took to get the wealth is risky. He has been training under a master and working of Jeds farm, all so he could participate in a arena fight before his king. What his girlfriend did not know was that he could die doing this if he does not win.

Working on Jeds farm he has been working for him (5 years) for a promise of battle equipment and free food.

With this risk of death and his arena match coming up, he wants to propose, but he needs a gift. He does not want to die without being married. He also wants to provide for her if she passes away.

Jed, out of the blue, mentions a guy named Dark Rat you can find in a hole near the castle. I'll just speed things up.

You kill a rat with a chefs clothes, meet Dakkarath(whom is a mage in the castle and does not live in a hole). Put on the chefs clothes, he dresses as a soldier, you then dismiss the cook, put sleeping spices in the drinks. And serve them to the King and his guests. The purpose was to steal valuables in that room.

However, they all died because someone replaced the sleeping poweder with poison(as expected right?). Howzer filled with guilt, and believing he was betrayed is overcome with guilt and the feeling that he is solely responsible. Dakkarath tells him to come with him, but he does not. Dakkarath is forced to flee himself.

After using a escape passage, he meets Howzers trainer, an old man(They were going to have a mage battle but he was to busy gazing at a flower that has just grown in the cave). But, he does not know this. He ends up telling Dakkarath where the rice farm. Searching in the dark, he find Dakkarath, working on the rice farm. He tells him what happened, and suspiciously does not ask about Howzer until he mentions it.

Also, in the letter he received, it said Howzers purpose for the heist was for money. When he met him, he said it was for love. Dakkarath, fearing whomever he loves might be in danger. Howzer, pretends he has never heard about his wild fantasies.

Dakkarath is very suspicious, and takes the bed he offered. He then has a flashback of him bragging about how much better his secret passages are.
Anyway, you get to the bottom and find the kings orb, which is one of the items he and howzer were going to find. Then Howzer catches they fight, Dakkarath lets Howzer live.

Now, it would be nice for some ideas from there :P.

Some things to mention, flowers coming out of no where. The kingdom is named Gale after the godess Garuda. There is a church that celebrates(in the same Kingdom) the god above all gods. And I don't know what this Kings orb does.(But he valued Garuda higher then the churches god.

Also, his girlfriend is going to ultimately die in the arena as Howzer watches.

The King also only has a baby in the mothers womb still. So someone needs to claim the throne.

Hello, it's been so long since I posted here that I can't even remember if I introduced myself.

You can just call me by my nickname. I am 24 years old.

I've been thinking about making a RPG for years, but it seemed to me that I could no dedicate the time and thought to it(even though I had the time). I've had some pretty cool ideas, but I could never put them to use.

Anyway, I've been working on small project. I have some youtube videos of it, its about 30 minutes long without random encounters so far. I kind of want some critique, but at the same time I don't. Haha. My project has been submitted but is still pending/ :)
