Introduction:


This collection of plugins creates the use-based progression system system from Final Fantasy VIII. These plugins give you full customization over how the system works and what to do about the leveling system that you may or may no longer need. (Full instructions in the help section of the plugin).


Features:

• Can pick and choose what aspect of the script you want
  
  
• Can still keep levels in the system if you so desire.

Very cool.

Awesome plugin! I'll have to play around with this some time!

There's an error with parameter setting in the "UseBasedParamGrowth" plugin's settings. When editing the "Defense options", the structure format is, according to the error message, "malformed" and the option only works in text format. Other parameters' options work fine. MV version 1.5.1.

Also, the plugin's incompatible with Yanfly engine, it might not be in your intentions to fix this, just thought I'd let you know. When opening the Advancement menu, the following error occurs:

TypeError: undefined is not a function

I have uploaded a fixed version that fixes the issue. This also can be fixed by deleting the \ before the " in any instance that it occurs in.
Also you should be able to fix the issue with Yanfly Plugins by downloading the patch I made. I forgot to upload it yesterday when I posted this plugin.

Thank you, the defense options error is fixed now. As for the crash, it was caused by me not deleting the extra parameters (I don't have that plugin installed). Deleting it solved the issue.

There's a problem with max mp on NCE_X_UseBasedParamGrowth Plugin

After configuring all stats,
1) MP doesn't decrease after using a skill that costs MP
2) Maximum MP doesn't get experience points for growth

MV version 1.51

This is so incredibly useful! Thanks for this - I can't wait to test it out.

Where could I find the fixed version of this plugin?

The solution I've found has peculiar effects.

UserBasedParamGrowth plugin has this in line 533 (for me)

var hpDamage = Math.min(target.mp, value);

when it should be, since that section deals with MP damage:

var mpDamage = Math.min(target.mp, value);

Change the line, save the file, delete and reload the plugin in your project, and it'll work as it should, as long as you don't delete any of the "Extra stat options" (which, if you don't use any extra stats, you should, because otherwise the stat EXP screen will crash as my comment above mentions). However, if you delete the "extra stat options" contents, the no-MP-consumed problem will return.

EDIT: Also, the extra stats have the same "visual mode is not available as the current value is malformed" error that the defense stat used to have.

Hi @Crystal Noel i'm trying to use this plugin but everytime I try to acess the "Advancement Menu" it end up bugging like this:

Spoiler: Error Image:

Did you know how can I fix it?

P.S: It's a vanilla project. The only plugins used are those needed to operate the FF2 Progression System.

 

[RedFoxGaming]

Does anyone know if there is an updated version of this script? I'm using a vanilla project to test with, but this does not appear to be compatible with the current version of RPG Maker MV. Thank you, and sorry for bumping a 1+year old thread.

EDIT: Probably not a good sign that CrystalNoel's last post was in January of 2018. I'm gonna downgrade to MV 1.5.1 and see if that is what the problem is

The download link on the website doesn't work anymore. I was going to try it, but I can't now.
