The RPG-Makers use a different form of animations, so this can't be done by default.
There are only two possible options:

1) Use an image program and split the gif into PNGs to use in default animation - which will not happen outside skills anyway, so it can't make the background more lively.

2) search for a script that can change the way the battleback is used ingame
This would have the added problem that Ace is now legacy and a lot of scripters have moved on to MV - if it doesn't exist yet or has been lost due to shutdown of old website then you're unlikely to get one.

As it has been said, you can do the skill animation using the animations VX Ace comes with. For the battleground script, if you don't find any, you might want to ask in the script request board or the classified board. I am sure there are people still writing scripts for VX Ace around (including myself). Of course, the classified board is most likely going to offer you a better chance of obtaining it, people usually don't like working for free.

If you are fine with just a scrolling battle background you can take a look at this thread, it is the first thing I found when searching with google. If you make a thorough research you might be able to find more of them.

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
How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such?
