Show Animations Above Windows

Using Yanfly Battle Engine...

Would really like to change animations' z-coordinate to have them be shown above windows, so I could put explosions all over an actor's face or something. Doesn't seem like too difficult of a change, but can't find anything similar. Anyone know how to do that?

You could try yanfly visual battlers. It has what you want. Animations over actors.
In the script you could just set the position of the actors over your battle display. Then set the z option there for showing the actors sprites below the face image. Line 417

What I want is animations over battle UI, like it was in XP.

What you described seems like it would just put actors below windows. Which are opaque in my game, by the way. So their faces would just be obscured by the window? Am I reading this right?..

I'm not going to test it for you, you give it a try and see if it works. Too busy with other things. Sorry
