New to using RPG Maker, Need desperate assistance!

[Axlcrush]

Hiya! I'm VERY new to RPG Maker, and I've been messing around with RPG Maker VX Ace, and I'm trying to get a few things working for the game I'm working on. Here's what they are

1- Diagonal Movement, as well as being able to set specific sprites for when a character is moving diagonally.

2- Being able to have overworld sprites around the size of a MOTHER 3 character sprite, the chibi look isn't my cup of tea for the game i'm making.

3- How to have animated background elements, for example. A Neon Sign that transitions back and forth from a pink color to a blue color.

And that's about it for now! I apologize if this was posted somewhere it's not supposed to be. I've never used a forum before aha.

I'll appreciate any form of help, Please and Thank you!

Please use meaningful titles in your threads, to make it easier for us to look up, and for others if they're searching for the same thing.


1. You will need a script - both for the diagonal movement, and for the changing of sprites when they're moving diagonally. There is a separate forum for script requests, as well as one for scripts that have been written - I suggest you search there first, as both scripts have already been written.


2. Not a problem - make the sprites as big as you need them to be, or as small.


3. Use a character spritesheet, with the middle column the sign in pink, and the two outer columns the sign in blue. Add an event, set the sprite as its graphic, and check the Stepping Animation box. That'll cause it to change from one image to another automatically.
