your spritesheet has a wrong pixel size for the numbers you gave in your notetags.
Where did you get that picture?

additionally, please give a better description of what the error is, tell us the version of the editor and the project core version (both numbers, they are not automatically identical - you can read the project core version by opening the project's rpg_core.js file with a text editor and read the number at the end of the title line).
additionally a screenshot of your plugin manager with all plugins listed in the order they've been given there would also help.

 

[Katrick12]

How do I correct it? I'm pretty sure that I measured it right, but whatever. I got that picture on google, what did you meant by "editor"? Is it the photo editor I used? The only number version I saw was v1.6.1. I'm using the trial version only of RMMV though. When I load the sprite, and test it out, I go to a random encounter, and the sprite that I used won't show up. I turned off the action sequence packs, because I saw in a post that it ain't compatible with yami plug ins. Thanks for responding to my post.

 

[Andar]

I got that picture on google,

Did the website you got the sprite from have a listing of the terms of service that allows you to use that picture legally?
Because a lot of the pictures you find by google do NOT allow you to use them, and you can be legally sued for damages and payment if you use ripped resources.
additionally your plugins are in the wrong order - yanfly's plugins will only work correctly if they're placed in exactly that order that is given on his website. you can decide to skip plugins and not use them from that list, but the plugins you use have to be in the order listed there.

 

[Katrick12]

Well, I know they're copyrighted or anything, i'm just testing out if I'm using the plug in right and how to use it properly, if I were to draw my own now, it would be just disappointing if they wouldn't work, right? What I'm saying is, they're just samples, so how do I fix the problem with the pixel size for the frame?

 

[Andar]

open the picture in an image program and cut away the excess pixels to solve that problem - cell size multiplied by number of frames has to be the picture size exactly to the pixel. But that will only mess up display, not prevent it completely - you need to correct your plugin order as well.

Can you help me with my yed sideview problem as well?

You need to post your own thread and explain what your problem is.

 

[Kes]

@Mihe Please do not hi-jack someone else's thread with your own query. You can read the Forum Rules here. Instead, start your own thread.

 

[Katrick12]

I did what you told me to, cut the excess pixels, resize it, I'm still not sure about the order of plug ins that you're talking about, but I'm following the order from the website where I got the plug in, and I've updated these activated plug ins, but it still doesn't work though

 

[Andar]

Yanfly has a list on his website - the list where all of his plugins are listed one after another. And as he states at the beginning of the list, THAT list gives the order in which each plugin has to be placed.
Which is still wrong from your last screenshot, you only corrected part of the order mistakes.

 

[Katrick12]

Still can't get the sprite to work, what am I missing out again? I've arranged the plug in order like you told me to, but to no avail, I don't know if i'm making progress

 

[Andar]

did you start a new game for that battle, did you load a saved game or is that a battletest?

 

[Katrick12]

I started out a new game

 

[Shaz]

Which of the plugins is supposed to handle a battler sheet with that format?

Can you please provide a link to the plugin, and a screenshot of the plugin parameters as you have set them up?

Update to 1.6.1.
Put YED_SideviewBattler at the very end.

This is what I tried:

<Sideview Battler: Actor1_1>
<Sideview Battler Frames: 13>
<Sideview Battler Speed: 6>
<Sideview Battler Size: 88,105>

 

[Katrick12]

I'm only using the trial version, is that also what's causing it?

What version of MV are you using? Check About.

 

[Katrick12]

I've done it, thanks a lot for answering this post, its been bothering me for 3 weeks now
