Disable that silly SV circle shadow thing

[Mega Man Volnutt]

As title suggests, is there a JS script that disables the SV shadow that is under every battler?

 

[izyees]

edit the shadow image with photoshop?

Yanfly Battle Engine has an option to disable them:

I will go with Izyees' solution. It doesn't need a big script to do this.

Assuming they're not using Yanfly's Battle Engine already perhaps, but I find it silly to keep an image you don't need just to stop drawing shadows when you can just comment out one or two lines.

You could change the code in rpg_sprites.js for the following:

Find this:

Sprite_Actor.prototype.initMembers = function() {Sprite_Battler.prototype.initMembers.call(this);this._battlerName = '';this._motion = null;this._motionCount = 0;this._pattern = 0;this.createShadowSprite();this.createWeaponSprite();this.createMainSprite();this.createStateSprite();};Change it to:

Sprite_Actor.prototype.initMembers = function() {Sprite_Battler.prototype.initMembers.call(this);this._battlerName = '';this._motion = null;this._motionCount = 0;this._pattern = 0;this.createWeaponSprite();this.createMainSprite();this.createStateSprite();};and then find:

Sprite_Actor.prototype.update = function() {Sprite_Battler.prototype.update.call(this);this.updateShadow();if (this._actor) {this.updateMotion();}};and change it to:

Sprite_Actor.prototype.update = function() {Sprite_Battler.prototype.update.call(this);if (this._actor) {this.updateMotion();}};

Or yeah, you can also do that. I don't see installing a big plugin just to remove a shadow, really.
