If you use GIMP you may have found that there are some tedious tasks when working with RPG Maker Tiles and pictures.
This script aims to automatise some of them

How to install GIMP scripts: (remember to unzip the file first)

Features:
Auto select grid size: It is hard to remember the size of the tiles on each different image map, so the plugin changes the grid size to the specified one. Right now it supports:
fixed sizes: Faces, Icons, Tilesets
and dynamic sizes: file of 1 character and file of 8 characters.

I'm not using other image maps, but it is easy to add other sizes and formats

Character mirroring:
Working on small changes on a character then means you need to copy paste each different change on their mirrored counterparts for frames and directions, this script automatises cleaning and copy/past of those frames
Important: For this script you need to click on the canvas once to see the results

This is awesome.

I find that often when using GIMP - my shadows and transparencies will export much too dark. Anyone else run into this and know of a workaround? Im sure it's just a setting or something that I am overlooking?

Hamburger!? Yeeah.
I love it when the approval queue is 80% spammers. Makes it so fast to power through!
I found some inspiration and have started work on a Point and Click style exploration game in a dead mall. I am hopefully going to push MZ in some unexpected directions. I always love seeing the engine do things that folks might not expect. Its good to have found some direction. Thanks for the support a few weeks back when the writers blog was hitting heavy.
Don't you want your heroes or monsters to lose some of their MAXHP or MAXMP? Don't you?
Really, why wouldn't you? :p
Yeah, it's gonna get worse after every hit they take, but so what?
Aren't they courageous fighters? Or stupidly brute mobsters?
