Diagonal player movement help.

[Ebonfix]

So you all know (at least you should) about the diagonal movement plugin in rpg maker mv. Well is there a way I can change the sprite to that diagonal movement. So like left has it's own movement in the sprite sheet. Could we make it where if the player moves Up+Left it would look like the player was going in that direction.

You would need an 8Dir Sprite plugin.


Moving to JS Plugin Requests

ok So since this is at JS requests. DEAR PLUGIN MAKER! Could you maybe make a plugin where you have to add a note to the actor page, and then make it say something like

[8Dir.png] in the note part please?

Yami has made an 8-dir movement plugin for MV. I believe it was showcased in one of the official videos, so it should be a complete solution.

 

[Ebonfix]

I meant like, the character sprite would change if you moved in that direction.

That's an 8D movement script. You also need an 8D sprite script to allow sprites to have 8 directions and to use the correct one.

 

[Ebonfix]

sooo is it already a thing I can do?

OOps. I always thought 8-dir movement implied 8-dir sprite support, but I guess it isn't necessary now that I think about it.

No Ebonfix, you need someone to write an 8D sprite plugin. The 8D movement only does movement, not sprite.

 

[Ebonfix]

ok.
