HELLO.

      I've have over 100hurs of exp with RPG maker VX Ace. but, I can't quite figure out how to make a real time combat system. I've looked for days on end for info about how to go about doing one, and all I ever seem to find are broken links, or old school rpg maker 1 stuff. Please if any one can actually give me some REAL info on a REAL TIME(As in, I press "W" my Character swings his weapon) kind of combat system that would be just peachy.

Please Leave any shreds of info. here.

I think what you're looking for are the so-called "Action Battle Systems" (ABS), the term "real time" isn't commonly used for them.


To my knowledge, there are four non-japanese ABS, one of them is already linked above.


If you search for "Action Battle System" then you should have no problem finding links to the other three on this forum (sorry, I don't have those links ready)

some Basic Scripting knowledge about how to go about setting up real time combat
Unfortunately, those two parts ("basic scripting" and "real time combat") don't fit together - it takes some heavy scripting to change the battlesystem into an action/realtime battlescript.
So basically, you have to decide either to use one of the few existing scripts or (on the condition that you know how to program) you could spent several months to a year developing your own battlescript - because that is how long it will take a good scripter to make one.


what about the other two links given above?


Or you could try to search for a non-infected version of the Pearl ABS, as it has been used ion several games.


Because those are basically your only options. I think there is a fourth ABS script somewhere - if I remember correctly one can be assembled from several of Victor's scripts.


But if none of those four work for you, you can only either start searching on japanese pages or start a multi-months project of having your own ABS programmed.


HuntingU, please avoid double posting, as it is against the forum rules. You can review our forum rules here. Thank you.

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.
