Hi,

I was watching the video on the Battle Mode Changer, maybe I must have misunderstood or missed it, but will we be able to switch back and forth between the different battle mode?  I didn't see the part on how to switch it, was watching it through my iphone and was hard to see.

I did notice the Bestiary, then the change in battle mode, but that probably threw me off.

Would it be possible to change battle mode depending on what map your in?

Thanks,

The entire point of the plugin to be able to switch between front view and side view battles at will. You can switch it based on the map, but the script will not do that for you, that's your job to do.

So I can set one map to have only side battles and one map to have front battles?  For example, any random enemies I face in the dungeon can be set in Side View while overworld map will have front view.  I didn't see here you set the side and front battle view, what was it dependent on?

This is shown in the video, so if you watch it again you should be able to catch it.


The default battle mode is set in the System tab.


You can override the default by putting SV or FV at the start of the troop name.


And on someone's request, you'll now be able to put RV as well to have it choose randomly.


So yes, you can make all battles on a given map one way or the other, by prefixing the troop names for that map with SV or FV.

Hi and thanks, I missed that.  iPhone screen was too small and was watching it late last night.  I see that now.

That is an awesome plugin that for sure I will be using.  Thanks Shaz!

Would this plugin work with other battle plugins such as the one from Yanfly or one that would change the battle completely?

It's a pretty simple plugin. Should work with others.


The only issue I see is that if you're using the Bestiary, it shows front-view / side-view monster sprites based on the default setting. So if your default is front, and on one map you have side view sprites (and there is a way to have side view enemies), you would need to provide both versions of the sprite for the monster book.

Oh ok.  My plan is to have a separate world where all characters from OZ will be side and the Robots would be front.  It's good that I can differentiate the different type of character by having SV or FV.  Most of the mobs will be custom made.

How exactly do we write it in? I can't seem to get it working, writing both FV or SV, spaced, with a slash, nothing... before the troop name.

or a link to the video please, I cant find anything under the name battle mode changer.

Edit: Nevermind, realized I needed the plugin first, duh :p

Hello! I would like to know if there are any pluggings or any way to customize how battles look?
I was thinking that when you start the battle for it to appear the eyes of your characters and opponents sorta like Ace Attorney.
Sadly I don't know how that would be possible so I would be needing help! If you can help me in any way I would really apreciate it!
The biggest debate we need to complete on which is better, Waffles or Pancakes?
