How exactly do you plugin Yanfly Battle Core?

[AmpalayaJuice]

I'm fairly new to RMMV. How exactly do you install the YEP Battle Core? I've placed it in the plugin manager just like in the video below YEP core engine, but the battle system hasn't changed. It's still on normal side-view. Are there other things I'm missing? Please help. Thank you so much.

yanfly's battle-plugin has nothing to do with the switch between front view and sideview, it works for both.
you need to switch the view by the checkbox in the database (system tab iirc)

Try installing Yanfly's Action Sequence extensions & Animated SV Battlers extension; they may not accomplish what you're looking for, but they enhance the battle system even further. It is also worth noting that while Battle Engine Core makes some important changes to the battle system, the changes are subtle enough that you might not notice the difference right away. Also, like Andar said, the choice between FV (front view) & SV (side view) is a database option; Yanfly's Battle Engine is designed to enhance SV battles but it works with FV as well. Can you take two screenshots of the battle screen, one with the plugin turned on & one with the plugin turned off, and post them here?

P.S. Could you also post a screenshot of your plugin manager?

What are you trying to do? Change the how the battle works? Change how the battle menu looks? Change how batters (actors or enimies) look? Change how the background looks? Change how skills and items work and/or look in battle? What is the problem, what do you want to change? What are you excepting YEP Battle Engine Core to do for you?

P.S. Yanfly's Battle Engine Core doesn't change how the main battle interface looks. It bypasses the Fight/Escape screen so that it only appears if you right-click or hit Esc, it allows you to select targets by clicking on them directly rather than having to scroll through a names list, and it changes the Skill selection screen so that you can still see the battle while selecting skills, among other minor tweaks. For the most part, everything looks the same, but it makes some major improvements to the gameplay experience.
What I would do is double-check that the Fight/Escape screen is still showing up first. If it is, then the plugin isn't working, but if the Fight/Escape screen only shows up if you right-click/hit Esc then the plugin is working.
