Any recent plugins for extending frames with Yanfly's Sideview Battlers?

[KingKraken]

I've been trying to get more animations for my sprites, but every option thus far has some sort of issue attached to it

TheGreenKels DragonBones plugin: https://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?threads/rmmv-dragonbones-2d-animation-integration.81027/ Doesn't allow the use of floats/jumps on sprites as well as won't allow encryption on exported games.

And Yami's Sideview battlers plugin: http://yanfly.moe/2016/01/07/yamis-sideview-enhancement-plugin-updates-77/ Works fine for actors, but enemies are locked into 3 frames. Anything more than that causes a "skipping" effect.

Both of these plugins are nice, but have not been updated in a awhile. Both authors seem to have gone dark as well. So I'm wondering if anyone has any hints towards some awesome plugins that don't suffer from these issues or possible hot fixes for either.

If push comes to shove, is there anyone that can recommend a good coder I can commission to either fix something in Yami's old code or start from scratch?

Greetings KingKraken,

Both of these plugins are nice, but have not been updated in a awhile. Both authors seem to have gone dark as well?

This is a problem around here, I wrote a post on a first step towards solving the problem by grappling with licensing issues & then creating an open source project to help deal with some of the issues of authors going dark.

If push comes to shove, is there anyone that can recommend a good coder I can commission to either fix something in Yami's old code or start from scratch?

Trading with a good coder instead of commission is probably a more viable idea. Good coding is expensive!

• My goal today is to introducing myself to the community & gauging the interest in collaborating on open source projects together.
• So please read the above as an attempt to open a Trading conversation with you

Sincerely,

Joy Diamond.
