The idea I have is to have the player sprites and facesets change depending on what equipment he wears.
Example:
Player wears leather armour:
-Player has sprite #1 on map
-Player has battle sprite #1 in Victor's Engine Animated Battles
-Player has faceset #1 showing in game menu and dialogues
Player wears plate armour:
-Player has sprite #2 on map
-Player has battle sprite #2 in Victor's Engine Animated Battles
-Player has faceset #2 showing in game menu and dialogues
Is this possible? If so, how?
I'm especially worried about not being able to change the facesets in dialogue without making it extremely annoying, because VXA has its facesets tied to the messages now. In RPG Maker 2000, setting facesets was seperated from messages, which made it easy to make facesets change depending on equipment switches, using common events.
In VXA, with the facesets tied to the message itself, the only way I see it possible is by creating a long fork covering all types of equipment for every single message (was planning on adding maybe 10 or so outfits for each of my 3 main characters), which would make it a hell if I want to change something or fix a typo...

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
