Hello everyone!


I finally decided to get my hands on MV and I am looking forward to messing around with it!


However, I have some questions.


I understand you can "convert" a game to MV from VX ACE but it does not include scripts for obvious reasons. So my question is simply: If I have post a list of scripts/features I am using in VX ACE would you all be very kind and let me know which ones are now built in features, which ones have (I think its java) MV equivalents and which ones I may need too commission?


-SCRIPT LIST Features I use:


Limit break: Allows for the use a limit break system


Summon: Allows me to summon a wolf to battle


EXP bar: Allows for an exp bar in status menu.


TP bar: Allows for a TP bar in status menu


Bestiary: Adds a bestiary to the game, also includes a scan skill.


Animated title screen: allows me to customize the title screen.


Game over options: Allows me to return to title, continue from last save, load a save and quit game.


Game menu settings : Adds a game menu allowing to change settings such as box colour.


Full screen: Allows me to press f5 and go full screen


Difficulty menu: Allows me to pick a difficulty setting at start of game.


Gold icon: Adds a  gold icon to the gold in menu


Map display name: I have a script that changes the map name displayed when entering maps into something nicer.


Yanfly save engine + Glav's confirm addon.


Heal at level up


Yanfly victory


pause: allows to pause game


no battle tints: stops tints from carrying into battle


enemy hp bars


Sideview battles


Skill damage bonus: script that allows items to effect skill damage. I.e Ring of healing adds 10% to healing skills.


minimum damage: adds a minimum damage value no matter what so dont get that "null" prompt.

There's very little difference on the features of the editor itself from Ace to MV, so you'll probably need a plugin for every script you had, but sure, post the list here :)

updated my first post with some of the scripts/script features I use.


I wonder how many are possible in MV right now :/

Fullscreen is now a default feature (it works properly this time).


Map display name can be achieved with my Orange Hud plugin, but there may be a plugin better suited for it. Same for EXP Bar and TP Bar.

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
