RPG Maker Forums

Hello,

It's my first time posting here on the forums and - like many posters - I've got some questions about RPG Maker VX Ace!

I've been working on going through tutorials and slowly building up my skillset of things I can do with the editors.  Been making custom battlers and sprites (because, you know, I'm an artist).  But I've finally got to the portion of my learning where I want to start editing the battle engine.

Thread recommended the Yanfly Battle Engine and while there are things I like about it, there are also things that I really want to change.

I'm just to to lay out the list of things I want to change and then you all can give me some feedback or point me in the right direction.

So, given the Yanfly Battle System, I'd like to...

1)  Remove the character portraits from the battle bar at the bottom.  The original 'menu' system worked fine for me and for my projects I want to avoid using character portraits as much as possible.

2)  Remove the annoying state popups.  I'm kind of annoyed of how when I kill an enemy in the Yanfly Battle Engine it does this annoying 'Death' state popup.  It's like the game is saying "Just to be clear, when that enemy vanished after you hit it really hard?  It was because it dead."  Gee, thanks.  >.<

I'd like to be able to remove those annoying state popups.

Those are my two big issues for now.  I'm hoping to use some of Yanfly's Visual Battlers (which makes the combat more 'final fantasy' style from what I hear), so I'm sure I'll have questions with that.

Cheers,

~JOE
