Event Position: Fine Tuning

[Vlue]

Apparently there is not! Couldn't tell you why I did that, but it certainly did cause problems, like if you went to the menu and back, got that fixed up in the pastebin~

 

[Bluevvorld]

Wow Vlue! this script is so awesome ! i cant describe with words ! 

 

[Imagine]

Thanks alot! well done this script is awesome!

 

[sokita]

this script is amazing! I can't believe I can get "pathfinder" thingy by editing random_region method a bit, only!

 

[Nosleinad]

Man, i always laugh of Vlue posts. Thanks a lot for the script AND for the humour!!!

Tip: Loved the fine tuned lineup screenshot.

Posed on the other forum, but I don't know why this is happening... for some reason my events wait for input to spring into place. I've removed all scripts any idea whats the issue? I can give whatever is needed. 

 

[Xeyla]

Thank you for such a wonderful script! I will enjoy using it in my game, everything looks more natural now.

 

[allfenom]

i know this is necropost, but is there any way to make the events rotate without moving from his cell?

 

[RyanYe]

hi I am new here
I want to ask what is "place script in"? in where?
and i am now using MV, is this script compatible with MV? much thx!!

 

[Roninator2]

i am now using MV

Welcome. You have a lot of learn.

First point you should know is that you have posted this question in a RGSS thread.
RPG maker XP, VX and VX Ace use RGSS. MV and MZ use Java.
All of the scripts will not work for MV. MV uses Plugins.

SADLY this is not compatible with Galv's Character Effects...
does anyone have a solution please??

 

[Roninator2]

have a solution please

Have a solution to what? what is the incompatibility issue?

 

[RedRose190]

Have a solution to what? what is the incompatibility issue?

This is my game with galv's character effects and without Fine Tuning Script (normal)

This is my game with galv's character effects and with Fine Tuning Script (bug?)

 

[Roninator2]

with Fine Tuning Script

So it's doing a mirror effect instead of shadow. Is the fine tuning script above galv's character effect script?

 

[RedRose190]

So it's doing a mirror effect instead of shadow. Is the fine tuning script above galv's character effect script?

Also it disables the original mirror effect completely. I can't turn the mirror effect on. And yeah it turns the shadows into mirror effect as you said..

The fine tuning script is below galv's character effect
i tried to place it above but nothing is changing

 

[Roninator2]

Just took a look. Vlue fine tuning line 397 - comment it out. # blend_update
Don't know if that will cause issues later, but it works. The blend was adding other effects on top of the shadow, or changing them, whatever.
First look at the mirror and it is reversing for the player and followers. I'll see if there is something I can do.
quick edit - mirror_update (the previous line) comment that out.
quick edit - rotate_update - comment that out. issues with reflections

 

[RedRose190]

Ok! i found solution (at least for my project) To make this script compatible with Galv's Character Effects. With a little "cost"..

To make the Galv's Character Effects reflections to work while i had the Vlue's Eventing Tuning Script, i had to edit the Fine Tuning v3.1 (the script in demo version) because i tried with the new (v3.2) but i could not fix anything.. So i removed the mirror effect and the rotate (angle) effect "lines" and for the Galv's Character Effects shadows to work i had to remove the blend(color) effect from the current script (Vlue's Eventing Tuning Script)
By that it means the Vlue's Eventing Tuning Script: Mirroring,Rotating and blending effect will not work. That's the little "cost".

I don't know if i am allowed to release/post the script with my edit here but i will and
if Vlue wants me to edit this post and delete it i will do it right away !!!

So if anyone wants
Vlue's Eventing Tuning Script to be some compatible with Galv's Character Effects put this script above main and replace the original script.

Spoiler: The Edited Script

## Eventing: Fine Tuning v3.1 ##
# Fine tune the x-y position, zoom, rotation, hue, as well as mirror and
# flash event's sprites!
#
# Usage: All script calls are made with set move route
# offset(x,y) within set move route x and y are equal to
# the number of pixels to be offset
#
# set_zoom(zoom) where zoom is a number
#
#
#
# blend(color) where color is a color object
# -> Color.new(red,blue,green,alpha)
#
#
#
# flash(color,duration) where color is a color object and duration
# is the length of the flash
#
# slide(x, y) offsets the sprite, but moves them to the
# position instead of transfering
#
# waypoint(x,y) will cause the character to head towards the
# specified point. Next command starts after
# point is reached.
#
# moveto(x,y) Not actually a new command, but one that is
# nice to know, transfers event to specified
# point.
#
# New Commands:
# @shakechar has been changed to offset
# @zoom has been changed to set_zoom
# (The old commands will still work)
#
# fadein Fades the character to 255 opacity based
# fadein(duration) on duration. Default of 10 frames.
#
# fadeout Fades the character to 0 opacity based
# fadeout(duration) on duration. Default of 10 frames.
#
# shake Shakes the sprite, default duration of 30
# shake(duration) frames.
#
# random Moves the character to a random location
# random(width,height) on the map. Can specify maximum range.
#
# random_region(id) Moves the character to a random location on
# random_region(id,w,h) the map with the same region. Can specify
# maximum range.
#
# self_switch("letter",value) Sets the self switch of the event. Letter is
# "A" to "D", value is true or false.
#
# balloon(id) Plays the specific balloon animation on the
# char
