For example say i want to add a formula modifier that is exclusive to fire element skills, I want to know if...

    Java vs JavaScript vs Ruby - Let's clear things out

    I've seen a lot of people confusing Java for Javascript and saying bad things about Ruby without any real context, so I'm making this topic to clear things out, hopefully will be marked as sticky. When I was younger, I thought Java was a shortened word for Javascript, it's not! They are...

    IDE for Ruby (for RPGMaker scripts)

    I try to search for answer, but didn't found any info (may be because IDE as word is too short for site search) Does anyone use any IDE (like RubyMine from JetBrains for example) to test their scripts or before place it to RPGMaker projects? Or software like this doesn't suitable for RPGmaker...

    Acquiring Player's Position on the map

    So what I want to do is summon by the player a small flying familiar and have the  character take control of it as long as it endures. My problem is that I don't know how to acquire the player's position in the map in order to select an adjacent empty tile next to him in order to do the summon...

    Conditional return

    I don't know whether this is the right forum, but it says Ruby in the title... anyway, I'm trying to move ahead in my lessons at Code School. After editing the above code, I get a message saying I didn't remove the variable assignment in the "if" statement. What's the variable assignment here...

    Ace Message System Doesn't Work With Galv's Message Background?

    Ok, so I've been trying to add Ace Message System (For the names) to my game, but I can't because I have another script interferring with it? I don't know what too do!! (Sorry if this sounds a little dumb, I'm clueless when it comes to Ruby.) Everything was working fine until I added Ace's...

    A bunch of questions to help me and other people fluent in programming learn Ruby and RGSS3 faster.

    Kudos to Yato! So instead of making a hell of a spam to you people, I gathered some questions I have in one thread. First off a few things about me. I am fluent in Procedural and Object Oriented Programming concepts. I can script in Python, Java, and some more programming languages. I can...

  8. Learning to script

    So I'm moderately knowledgeable on coding and Ruby. I've been going through various courses (online and books) and put together various simple applications (outputs on command line prompts, nothing too fancy). But I really want to learn to do something with it, to go the next step and create...

    Control an NPC?

    Is there a script that allows the player to activate something to then gain control of an NPC event wandering around? I can think of one way to do it with events, but would it lag less if I used a script versus a parallel event that is checking multiple triggers at any time?  I would like to...

    NPCs running into Objects

    Hey, I have been looking for something simple that will make NPCs move away when they run into a tree or other object when they are set to "Move Away from Player"? I have a cluster of events that just get caught on the trees when I am chasing them down, but I want them to keep on moving. Any...

    Hackety Hack

    http://www.hackety.com/ is anybody familiar with this site? How much different is Ruby from the RGSS3 used in RPGMaker? If I learned Ruby would I be able to take that knowledge to scripting for RMVXA? with very limited (and old) knowledge of Javascript and HTML, how difficult would it be to...

  13. Backporting Ruby features into RGSS?

    While reading up on the ruby specs, I discovered a lot of really powerful language features have been added into ruby (now v 2.1.5) since version 1.9.3 (The version RGSS was based off) RGSS scripters are really missing out, so I wanted to document all the features NOT included in RGSS, that we...

    Help, I can't Remember!!

    I remember when I was younger, there was an Anime with a theme similar to Power Rangers ( or maybe even Knights of the Zodiac?). It was about these Gems, colors of the rainbow and junk and they'd transform into some stronger, suited version of themselves. The lead character was a blonde male...

    Externally Calling Require

    I have been reading this article: http://ruby.learncodethehardway.org/book/ex51.html and I was thinking if what is a way to call the 'require' method that was in Ruby. Also, if I ever create a ruby file externally on the game folder, what can I do to execute those files? For example, a simple...

    Okay... So, I had seen the engine of RM2k3 and I didn't found anything about script editor. Browsed around the internet, they said that the script can be write in the common event.

Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
