# =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
# 2012.12.18 - Added preset views and able to change direction in-game.
# 2012.07.24 - Finished Script.
# 2012.01.05 - Started Script.
#
#==============================================================================
# ¥ Introduction
# =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
# This script provides a visual for all actors by default charsets. The actions
# and movements are alike Final Fantasy 1, only move forward and backward when
# start and finish actions.
#
#==============================================================================
# ¥ Instructions
# =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
# To change the player direction in-game, use the snippet below in a script
# call:
#
# $game_system.party_direction = n
#
# To install this script, open up your script editor and copy/paste this script
# to an open slot below ¥ Materials but above ¥ Main. Remember to save.
#
#==============================================================================
# ¥ Compatibility
# =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
# This script is made strictly for RPG Maker VX Ace. It is highly unlikely that
# it will run with RPG Maker VX without adjusting.

#=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
# These settings are adjusted for Party Location. Each Actor will have
# coordinates calculated by below formula. There are two samples coordinates
# below, change PARTY_DIRECTION to the base index you want to use.

3 => [ 460, 280, 30, -10], #RIGHT
6 => [ 460, 220, 32, 20], #DEFAULT RIGHT
8 => [ 260, 230, 40, 0], #DOWN

# Change this if you want the sprites to face another direction when they
# have the dead state. Refer to PARTY_DIRECTION to see what is what
DEAD_DIRECTION = 0

# Change this if you want the battlers' sprites to get directly rotated when
# they have the death state, and how much of an angle. Useful for a simple
# "Lying down dead" effect (that'd be -90 here)

and most of the time my battlers are on the right side of the screen facing left. For my boss fight, I want to change my battlers to the bottom of the screen facing up. According to Yanfly's instructions, this should just be a simple script call from the map, prior to the battle starting. I am using the following script call: $game_system.party_direction = 2

This puts my battlers in the correct position at the bottom of the map, but it does not make them face up. They are still facing to the left. No matter which party direction I choose, they are always facing to the left. I hope there is a simple answer for this. Please help.

Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
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'??
