[XP] Blizz-ABS

[Blizzard]

Don't run Blizz-ABS with old savegames. Run a new game.

[Dooz]

That is new game.

EDIT: Okay,it's working, but I had to modify the default controls.

Please don't doublepost, use the edit/modify button instead.
Also, put images into spoilers.

I got this error after using projectile skill on a wall/object

Spoiler: ShowHide

in the line 305

what should I do to fix this? (sorry if my english is bad)

Did you change your map's tileset? If you change the tileset to a smaller one for a map, then old mapping data might remain on that map with tile IDs that don't exist anymore. First try to see if it happens on every map. Then try editing and saving the maps that have that problem. Just a small edit so you can save it is enough. This should make RMXP remove all non-existing tiles from the map.

I'm sorry to spout such a question that is probably quite dumb compared to many others, but fact is I have absolutely no clue what to do and how to do it, regardless of how simple to do it.

I just started with RPG Maker XP, because of this thing. All I wanted was add weapon animations (sword) to my character when he attacks. He can attack and everything, there is just no sword.

I tried following the manual, I tried using Chronicles of Sir Lag-a-Lot to see how its done, but to no avail, I can use the same exact sprites and nothing works.

Maybe I'm missing some logic, some simple things, but no explanation and google search shed any light. I just don't understand it, thats all I can say, and would really like some help here.

[Blizzard]

Turning on the option for attack animations would help. *points to config app*

Oh god.

Can't believe I missed that.

Thank you!

Posting this here cause I am STILL unable to make new posts cause of that CP error thing...

I have this as a common event to drain SP (energy in my game) when you run. (I also set this to parallel and it still gives the same issue bellow)

Spoiler: ShowHide

Now all and all it works fine! When running it drains, when walking it increases.
Until you drain the bar completely, once fully drained to 0, it will not regen at all, it will remain at zero.

It has to do with the variable that tells it if SP is below 3 disable running, otherwise allow running. I know this as I tested it with out that snip of code. With out that, player can run all over and SP bar will drain and increase when they stop... but with noting to disable running, the SP bar can be fully empty and player can still run, though if they stop, the SP bar starts to refill again.

But with the small snip that tells it to disable running, the SP bar stoops refilling after it gets to zero.

I'm unsure what is causing this. It ONLY stops increasing once you fully drain the SP bar with the turn off running branch is present.

Additionally, did something change in the last build? When I add the branches to check if an arrow key is also being pressed before it starts doing the drain (so you don't drain energy while standing in place) I get

Spoiler: ShowHide

thats with using call script
Input.pressed?(Input::Key['Arrow Up'])
and so on. But it gives that error. It use to work! I have a demo of another game that uses the last version of the battle system and it also uses the same means and it don't throw an error back.

problem solved ^^

and one more thing,
when my character is running and I press the jump button, my character can go through the wall and end up in the next room

#------------#      #------------#
#            #      #            #
#            #      #            #
#  x>>>>>>>> # jump #>>X         #
#            #      #            #
#            #      #            #
#------------#      #------------#

is this a bug?

If I remember correctly (it's been a while since I've used Blizz-ABS,) you can set a terrain tag as the "wall" tag in the configuration. Just make sure that all of your wall tiles are marked with that tag.

[The Niche]

You can indeed.

As I already said, you should contact your ISP about that.
BTW, you can post in any topic and ask the post to be split off as its own topic. Just keep in mind that you might have problems then editing that post.

O have called them, told them about this. They told me that they hadn't done any recent changed to their system and that their ip's are not not listed or blocked by their spam blockers. This is the only site I have this issue on. I even asked if they could assign my router to a new range of IP's.. they did what they could, yet I still can't post.

This is very frustrating.

....and I'd still like help with my question. >.>;;

Probably it occurs because you call that in events while not having "Key['key_name']" hash declared. Use the default RMXP Input::UP, or whatever the default pattern for the Up button is. Same style as Input::B, Input::C etc.

[Taiine]

Okay I see what it is. It DID get changed. It use to be
Input.pressed?(KEY)
now it's
Input.press?(KEY)

so
Input.pressed?(Input::Key['Arrow Up'])
is now
Input.press?(Input::Key['Arrow Up'])
Simple over look... now that part works.

So all that's left is to sort out why when sp is low it refuses to regen only when the disable run is added to it.

[Magus]

psyche.  The system is actually working very well. (no one views this topic very much, huh xD)

Anyway, I've been very curious of your combo system for a while now, Winkio. So xD

[OracleGames]

Blizz/Winkio there is something wrong with the "$game_system.x = (value)" commands in the newest version, some of them freeze my game:

$game_system.running_button = false
$game_system.sneaking_button = false
$game_system.jumping_button = false
$game_system.blizzabs = false
$game_system.hud = false

They disable the stuff i want to but still freeze my screen, tried the exact same commands with an older BABS version (another project) and worked just fine ;(

EDIT: I inserted the same old version of BABS in my new project and still didnt work, it makes no sense T_T

[The Niche]

Conclusion: One of the scripts in your original project is making your old version work and your new version not work. Does the new version work with a blank project?

That's what i thought, but when i try to apply the commands in a new fresh project (Any BABS version), it doesn`t work either =S. Copied everything from the project that made it work, scripts, databases into a different project and it doesnt work, the only difference between the older game (the one that works) and the newer is the RPGXP version that created them, thats all i can think about.
