Sixth's Mini-Games - v1.2 (13/12/2015)

[Swafer]

I really like the third mini game(QTE 2). But iI was wondering if there is a way to have it horizontal instand of vertical .I would like to use it as an heartbeat system.

Spoiler: Here is what I|'m refering to..

 

[XOMIAK]

what do i do?

@XOMIAK
I just noticed this, sorry.
But I can't help you with that without knowing what you did when the error happened and when did it pop up.
From what I see, it's from a script call, so chances are high that you made a mistake in the script call.

@Swafer
The script is not written in a way that would allow for easy change, I was still in learning phase when I wrote these. I don't have time to change it, so it will probably not happen, sorry.

Nice ones. I want to fool around a bit with these. But I need to know if there's a way to use animated charsets (or at least an animated picture) as triggers as well as animated arrow buttons in QTE_Type_2. (I think of doing an army system out of this... two armies fighting against each other and you can prevent enemies from killing your units by pressing a proper button. Your units would be the buttons and the trigger graphics would be enemy units)

 

[Sixth]

I don't think that I made it possible to use animated images in these minigames.
I don't have time to do that change either, sorry.

But that's a cool idea you have there, so good luck with it!

Hello. Is there any way to reset the range mini game score with a script call?

 

[Sixth]

There is, but I didn't think anyone would use it, so I didn't include it in my documentation.

$game_system.minigames(game_type)[:score][score_type] = value

# game_type - Type of the mini-game (:range, :qte1, :qte2)
# score_type - Type of the score to change (:current, :win, :lose, :total, :high)
# value - Value to set the score to

I have no idea what type of values these use though, didn't look at these scripts since years, so kinda forgot most of it, but I think all of them use integer values.

Hi! I love your mini-games!
They really lighten up my game. I will definitely put you in my game credits at the end XD
But I'm struggling to delete the start and fail buttons on the stay in range mini-game...
I have an animation ready for when the player fails, but you have to press you lost first and it stops the flow. Also, the start button is unessesery as well...

Can you or somebody else help me with that?

Thank you

- Sixth's Mini-Games

- Intro:
I have been making mini-games for RPG Maker VX Ace for a while now, but never bothered to clean my code for them, let alone publishing them.
But I decided to share these scripts now.
When I finish with the code clean up for my other mini-games, I will add them too.
Note that all of my mini-games require at least 2 of my other scripts. Those are:
- Mini-Game Base
- Picture Number Drawing
These are included in the demo.
Currently, there are 3 mini-games in the demo below, and these are:

- "Stay In Range" Mini-Game:

- Author's Notes:
In the demo, I made different settings for different difficulty levels.
The "Insane" mode is usually not meant to be put in a real game. They are almost impossible to finish (in the case of "Stay In Range" mini-game) or they are simply not worth to do due to the low amount of scores the player will earn from them (in the case of QTE (Type 1) mini-game).
You can, of course, change all settings if you want, I just wanted to make something annoying in the demo for each mini-games.

Hey I know it has been a while but I can't seem to get these to work. I'm probably doing something wrong. I tried calling the script in an event and the game crashed. Could someone help me?

show us the event and the error

show us the event and the error

All I did was call the event with start_range_game( :easy,120,240). Here's a screenshot of what it tells me:

Here's a screenshot of what it tells me:

Did you read the console message? It says your missing the file.
So did you download the demo? It has all the image files for the games.

I did, and I copied the image files into the files for my game.

Perhaps make a support thread. The demo works fine so it's something you're doing wrong.

Could you tell me where I should do that? I get lost on this forum
