How to make it night in PPG Maker VX Ace lite.

[SilXver]

I wondering if you can make it night in RPG Maker VX Ace lite. If it needs a script please put here even though it can't be used in the lite version I will probably use it in the near future. Thanks!

Can you tint the screen?

A lot! Use a really dark tint.

You can always check out Khas Awesome Light Effects demo game to see how things work with tint and a great script involved.

Don't try to use it yet though. Just play with it to see what can be done.

Thanks a lot Hotfirelegend and Dreadshadow. I forgot I can just tint the screen.

Finding a good tint setting is a bit of trial and error and a bit of art. Here are some ideas.


Isaacsol's flashback tint: Red: -68 Green: -85 Blue: -85 Grey: 255 see spoiler for example


BigEd's Sepia tone: RGB for sepia: 94, 38, 18 see spoiler for example


poker158149 -187 -119 -17 68 <<looks blue-grey>> see spoiler for example


jasonicus set all to -68 see spoiler for example


azkanan see spoiler for example


I tried Jasonicus' idea of -68 rgb with the gray at 0 - but it wasn't as overcast looking as I wanted.


I settled on -68,-68,-68,100.


Here are some examples: (in spoiler, cause doggone they spaced out weirdly!)

Except the thread title states the OP is using Ace Lite, which doesn't have scripts
