Anyone know how to orient the screen to an isometric viewpoint? I've seen something similar done during battles, but I'm curious if it's possible to do outside of combat.

It is possible. But your best bet is to make parallax maps in photo shop and use Yanfly's region plugin.

This is a test I made about a week back. It worked perfectly with Yanfly's region plugin.

I'm not sure about changing the actual screen but you can "fake" isometric view by using orthogonal graphics that are made to look isometric.

Basically you make an isometric tile using orthogonal tiles. Each tile represents a corner of the isometric cube.

My game uses an isometric view for most maps, i use parallax mapping combined with most plugins from: https://quxios.github.io/#/plugin
Specifically, the essential plugins you need are Qmove and Qmovement. For pixel movement and the use of colliders respectively

so hopefully tomorrow i get to go home from the hospital i've been here for 5 days already and it's driving me mad. I miss my family like crazy but at least I get to use my own toiletries and my own clothes. My mom is coming to visit soon i can't wait to see her cause i miss her the most. :kaojoy:
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.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
