Hi, does anyone know of a plugin for MV that can change the name (and changing the color would be nice too, but I'll settle for just the name if I have to) of the MP gauge for some actors, but not all of them? Obviously I know I can change the name of it for all actors in the system menu, but I want to change it for certain ones, like, let me have magic users gauge still be called MP, but have Warrior type characters' gauges be called Stamina. And I don't want to use the TP gauge as a stamina gauge, cause I want to use it for something else. Yanfly's Skill core let's you hide gauges and swap them around, but so far I can't find a plugin or function that'll just let you change the name of the gauge for certain actors.

PS-sorry if this question is in the wrong place. I rarely post here as this forum confuses the hell out of me lol

Hey @ethervagabond,

1632821869888.png

Do you have additional suggestions / wishes for that plugin?

So it noone replies that a plugin already exists, I will release it (after i did all the overhead stuff to complete it).

Best wishes,
ST0RMTiger

So.... couldn't help myself and wrote the plugin ^^

You can configure it like this:
ActorMPGaugeNames_PluginConfig.PNG
For each Actor that you want to customize, make a new Entry and define all the values that you will be asked for. The Actor can be chosen as defined in the Database, color numbers are the same as for text colors like everywhere in the maker and the rest should be self explaining.

The only thing for me is, that is doesn't quite look very nice. But that'd be also the case when you name "MP" to "Stamina" or "Evilness" as in my example here. That is just how the standard menus of the maker look like...
ActorMPGaugeNames_2.PNG

Please just try it out and give me feedback what to change before if i release it somewhere.

And everybody else: Please tell us, if you found a similar plugin somewhere else. I do not want to double release a plugin that already existed.

To try it out, just copy this code to a file named exactly as "ST0RM_ActorMPGaugeNames.js" (without the quotes of course) and save it in your project JS/plugins folder.

Holy crap! Thank you so much! Awesome!

Please just try it out and give me feedback what to change before if i release it somewhere.

I will do so. Thanks again!

EDIT: so it works perfectly, it's even compatible with VictorEngine's Control Text plugin, which allows you to use escape codes anywhere (like so I can rename the gauges icons instead of using text if I wish by naming it like \i[283] or something).
The only thing doesn't seem to be compatible with is the function in Yanfly's Skill Core that allows you to swap your gauges around, as it seems to change gauge 2 no matter where you have them arranged with the swap function, and also turn gauge 2 into an MP gauge. So like, if I have a character that I want to have his TP gauge before his Stamina gauge, my thinking would be to use your plugin to rename his MP gauge to Stamina, then use Yanfly's Skill Core to swap his MP and TP gauges. What happens instead though, is that when I set it up like this, the actor's stamina gauge (which has the functionality of an MP gauge, not a TP gauge) appears first, and then he just has another MP gauge which is just a regular MP gauge.

I can live with this, though, I only bring it up because you asked. If it tickles your fancy to make it compatible with the function in Yanfly's Skill Core that allows you to swap gauges around, I would love that, but if not, I can live with it as is. I would much rather have the ability to rename and recolor my gauges than have the ability to swap gauges around. So, once again, thank you so much!!

You're welcome!

So with that Yanfly Plugin... as many people use these (for now i don't), i would like to give it a try.

Though i have to admit, that Yanfly obviously saw this problem coming as he states in his plugin help section:
"This plugin also lets you swap around the HP, MP, and TP Gauges to any order
you want assuming that all the plugins you use will keep the same order of
HP, MP, and TP and does not override the default gauge drawing process. If
you use any plugin extensions, they can be swaped in as well."

Could you please make a screenshot of your plugin configurations (so if i read it right, the skill window with the tag you used for the class AND the plugin parameters window).

That would really help to try to reproduce the issue. That i can try to fix it ;)

Best,
ST0RMTiger

I certainly will. Unfortunately I'm now at work, so it will be a few hours.

Hmmm... so i tried it out so far (without knowing your exact configuration) and I ended up with everything perfect:
1632838200674.png

Is this not what you wanted?

I wrote
<Swap Gauge 2: TP>
<Swap Gauge 3: MP>
to class of Therese.

The TP gauge is still TP but shown before the "MP" aka Evilness gauge.


EDIT:
I had an idea that it might be just a question of plugin order. And YES:

I got
1632838733484.png

if i had my plugin below yanfly's plugin.

So this makes sense, as if you put the YEP-Plugin BELOW my plugin, it swaps around what i created. If you put it the other (wrong) way with my plugin below the YEP plugin, my plugin changes gauge 2 still (as you correcly pointed out) and this would be the TP gauge then. This is not due to my plugin but due to the YEP plugin changing around things only on screen but not REALLY.

So you'd have 2 options:
1) put my plugin above the YEP-Plugin (recommended)
2) Change the color and name of the TP gauge and not the MP gauge (of course this would push me against making it possible to change also the TP gauge ;))

Yes that's exactly what I was looking for. Did you change something or is that how it works with the version you released earlier for you?

I edited my post, while you wrote. It is an issue of plugin order. Please read above again.

Oh yeah, I didn't try putting it above because I thought maybe it would override the swap function, but looks like it's the other way round. Can't wait to get home and try it out!

If STORMTiger's doesn't end up working perfectly, this one is supposed to work with Skill Core exactly as you want.

lol ST0RMTiger, looks like you made it for nothing after all. I swapped the order though and it works great. Thanks again!

Well, it's not the same as the NeMV plugin is connected to classes, whereas your request was that it be by actor. That might work interchangeably for your game, but it's still a good addition.

Yeah see, it is exactly as @ATT_Turan said. (Thank you for that!)

@ethervagabond: Additionally, i learned a lot going through this task. AND it was fun! So it was not for nothing even without the difference between both plugins that of course still exists after all.

If you keep it accurate, my plugin fulfills the task and NeMV doesn't because of the class / actor difference. But I also agree with @Sword_of_Dusk though, that for most people the NeMV plugin does the trick. Thank you for posting that! (And by the way, is there a list of plugins somewhere that can be better searched as hoping to find something in the forum?)

EDIT Sep 29, 2021: NeMV doesn't let you change text colors. If you need that stick to my plugin. I will release an updated version soon. Additionally, i will include a function to change the number colors also. /EDIT

Stick to my version though if you need the change for an actor while another actor of the same class shall have a different customization. Of course you can just make a new class and still use NeMV, but if you want to keep both classes synchronized in all other parameters, my version can be easier to go. Additionally my plugin deals with the defined maker colors instead of hex colors. This is more a side issue but it could be easier to keep a consistent look and feel.

If someone reads this and still needs the upgrade of my version also for HP and TP, just message me.
(Moreover, while i read the source code of NeMV and realized there could be an issue with the battle log not being correct with my plugin. If someone needs my version and has trouble with this issue, please message me, too.)

@ethervagabond: If your problem has been solved, please report this thread as "solved".

Best wishes,
ST0RMTiger

Not an intact/accurate one that I know of. But, along those lines, you should put yours in a plugin release thread in case it's useful to anyone else in the future.

That's a pitty. I have an idea to to that AND to keep it up to date automatically. But that would be a major project. In short: Writing some webapp where everyone can upload their plugins and these are automatically stored in a database with some meta, generated from the help-sections within the plugin. This way one could have found even "ClassTPRename" while searching for "Actor MP rename" because "MP" is a keyword inside that help section. Know someone who might be interested in setting that up?^^ I could help coding, but i don't wanna host that...

I might do that, not before i added HP and TP customization and looked at that "battle_log" issue.

The plugin now should completely work just fine for the Actor MP Gauge customization.

Compatibility with Yanfly Skill Core should also be no problem if you keep the plugin order as we have figured out above.

And for the last: If you like me to test your game sometime, I'd appreciate it. The sole need of this function that you requested sounds interesting enough to me and i'm a bit curious what exactly you plan to do with that ;) Good luck!

Best,

Just have to figure out how to addin sub class progress.
Partitito's story is supposed to be about defeating poverty while thinking he is a capitalist with socialist ideas. But it's really about stories of redemption and perseverance.
Who would have thought an idea like "I wanna put the character bio in the equip screen" would turn into a bunch of work and fun collaboration @Puppet Knight . Now my Equip/Character screen is the way I want it.

Just one more week of grinding through semester finals and I'll be able to actually work on some games and stuff. Hopefully I'll be able to work on my game document to actually have my ideas somewhere outside of my cranium of madness.
With Day 4 of my advent calendar posted, it's time for y'all to choose what Day 5 will be!

We've seen Strength with our adventurers, so which DnD stat would you like to see in the next NPC: Charisma, Constitution, or Wisdom?
