Ultra Mode 7 [RMMV & RMMZ]

[bblizzard]

@SilentZeroX Good catch. UltraMode7.setFadeColor() indeed doesn't work (along with UltraMode7.setFadeBegin() and UltraMode7.setFadeEnd()). I fixed this in v2.1.1. The new version is already live.

UltraMode7.animateFadeColor() does work, but you aren't using it correctly. The color value has to be an array like this:

UltraMode7.animateFadeColor([0, 0, 0], 60);

Feel free to double-check this in the demo. The NPCs on the left side of the map have examples for these two calls.

This RGB color value thingy also goes for UltraMode7.setFadeColor() in v2.1.1:

UltraMode7.setFadeColor([0, 0, 0]);

I didn't have time to test v2.1.1 this time, but it was a very simple fix so it should work. Let me know if you run into any issues.

That did the trick! Thank you so much.

Looking at the arrays thing, I can see the documentation does mention it. I guess if I had one last suggestion, maybe consider changing the documentation from

UltraMode7.setFadeColor(RGB_COLOR)

to

UltraMode7.setFadeColor([R,G,B])

so that way you sort of have an example of how it's meant to look when typed properly. (though I'm also fatally literal when it comes to this stuff, so I'm probably the only one with the issue here)

Not that I'm complaining! I'm just glad all is well again. Thanks again for fixing this in such a timely manner (and for fixing it at all, really. A committed plugin developer is the last thing I want to take for granted.).

I did add an explanation how RGB_COLOR is defined a few lines below.

@bblizzard - Thank you for the amazing contribution to the community. It's working wonderfully.

Would anyone be able to suggest adjusting the "y" tile offset of how much the airship raises. I briefly poured their the core scripts and couldn't seem to find the value unless I was looking in the wrong place. Essentially I want to adjust how many tiles the airship raises so that when using Ultramode 7 the sprite is "higher" in the frame.

**Edit** My annotation looks like I'm talking about Z-position for the airship but what I mean is just vertical Y height

I actually answered my own Question. I changed the value to raise the airship in the Core RPG Maker scripts. Specifically rpg_objects.js on Line 8384 - Default is 48 (one tile) I multiplied that by 4 to raise my airship higher.

Thank you! It's working
