I'm making a forest map that's sort of maze-ish so I have it loop horizontally. I also added a picture to make it look like the trees were casting a shadow. I found a script that would keep the picture in a fixed position which is good because I have a large map (this is the script http://www.rpgmakervxace.net/topic/3076-fixed-pictures-for-rmvx-ace-for-parralax-mapping/) but at the spot where the map loops, the picture stops. After the player walks past the loop point, the picture then moves over to that side. Is there anyway I can make the picture loop with the map?

I don't know if this would help but it might! So instead of creating a picture as the thing to use use yami's overlay script and name your shadow light(whichever map NO ID) and this - and then a number ( I think for a switch) EXAMPLE: light9-1 MAKE SURE TO MAKE THE LIGHT IMAGE A JPEG!

Here is the link to yamis overlay script.

HOPE THIS HELPS! if you need me to explain it differently, maybe I will make a tutorial on it :D

Earthtain, I'm not entirely sure how to use this script. I' still pretty new at this whole scripting thing (I don't get it at all... :headshake: )  so a tutorial would be much appreciated, if you have the chance!

Yeah I will do a tutorial on how to use this script (hopefully soon) to help out.  The script that Archeia mentioned is probably better for what you want to do, but if you are going to do parallax mapping, the one I mentioned would be good to use.

It didn't work for me. It still does the same thing.
Well I will try and do a tutorial of the overlay I was talking about.  Then I can link you to that.

Did you make sure to follow the instructions? Does your filename have [FIXED] on it?

Yes. The old script told me to have [FIXED] in the filename, so that was already there. I even took the old script out and put this one in it's place so I know it wasn't the old one overriding the new one or anything like that.

Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
