Hello people
What I am looking for is a crystal equip type of script.
In my game characters learn skills from levelling up, But i would like for them to gain magic via equipping crystals.
My idea is that each character would have points that determine what they can and cannot equip.
Each character would start with 3 points and as they level up or progress through the story they gain more points. ending up at max 20 points.
Crystals have equip costs so some crystals may cost 2 naturally while others cost 3 or 4 naturally.
This is where character affinity's come in to play.
Crystals would have different affinity's. A fire crystal would have the fire affinity, A cure crystal would have the healing affinity.
Characters would have either positive or negative alignments with each affinity.
A positive affinity would reduce the cost of the crystal by 1 and a negative affinity would increase it by 1.

A healer might have a Positive affinity with healing crystals and a negative affinity to fire crystals but a normal affinity to earth crystals.

Lets say they have 6 Points and all crystals cost 2 points.

They can equip a healing crystal for 1 point, a fire crystal for 3 points and a earth crystal for 2 points. Making up all 6. or they could equip 3 different earth crystals. to make up all 6.
Or two fire crystals to make up all 6.

Crystals can be found in treasure chests and brought at shops and would just be a item.

Is there anyone that can help me out with this. If there is already a script similar can you point me towards it. thanks, Also willing to discuss prices.

Yanfly's Equip core and Equip Requirements plugins should do the trick. You'd likely have to mess with the Lunatic functions a bit to get things the way you want.
That said, you never said what different points of an element would grant an actor.
Like would 1 level 3 cure gem give a level 3 cure spell? Would 3 level 1 gems do the same?

That's not what I'm after they dont give the points thing also I don't want heroes to have to equip skills. just magic. If you look at my post I stated that I wanted heroes to learn skills upon levelling up and then have to equip magic, and there are no levels.
But equipping a fire crystal will give you one fire spell.
Thanks for your quick response though.

A tiny bit closed minded there...
Anywho, if you want an entire system built to your specifications, you might wanna go into the classifieds and commission a scripter to make it for you. It's admittedly not super complicated, but I doubt you'll get too much help on this for free esp since you so vehemently disagree with accessible methods that could work.

TL:DR BTW There is a materia plugin out there that might help. Never looked at the code so I don't know how easy it would be to get it where you need it. But anyway, Good luck.

Its based slightly off the orbment system from trails of heroes but rather then setting them in a small grid. I wanted elements and points. My apologies I thought this was the payment one.

Don't forget, aspiring writers: Personality isn't what your characters do, it is WHY they do it.
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?
