[RPGXP]Need someone to convert a script

[MetalZelda]

Hello everybody
I'm not very active in the forum and it's bad because of reasons xD
Well, technically, I'm switching my Zelda project from XAS ABS to BlizzABS and seems to be easy for the moment, but something is troubling me ...

I found in the Internet a script that allow map zooms, and which is really great for gameplay thing and cutscenes, and I badly want this script to work.
It is a script that only work this the fuc**** useless SDK, which is both XAS and Blizz incompatible.

Blizzard, you ungrateful nice sexy administrator, or someone else, please make some makers dream true ...

Please, can you make this shit to be a regular RPG Maker XP script instead of a non-working XAS & blizz SDK support

Script bellow :

=begin
==============================================================================
** Map_Zoom
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trebor777
Version 1.1
14/06/2007
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Description FR:

Ce script permet d'effectuer des zoom in et zoom out sur un point pr?cis de
la map.

* Description US:

This script allow you to zoom in or out on a specific map location.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Instructions FR:

Placer le Script sous le SDK et au dessus de Main.
Utiliser 1 des 2 commandes dans un script ou un ?v?nement "appeler un script":
. $game_map.start_zoom(x,y,coef,spd)
. $scene.zoom(x,y,coef,spd) #avec $scene une instance de Scene_Map

x et y: Coordonn?es(pas en pixel) du point ? zoomer/d?zoomer
coef : Valeur du zoom ? atteindre de 0.1, ? l'infini
spd : Vitesse du zoom, la variation est bas?e sur le calcul suivant:
0.2*spd

* Instructions US:

Place The Script Below the SDK and Above Main.
Use 1 of this 2 command in a script or with the event command "Call a script":
. $game_map.start_zoom(x,y,coef,spd)
. $scene.zoom(x,y,coef,spd) #with $scene a Scene_Map instance

x & y: Target Location(not inpixel)to zoom in/out
coef : Zoom value to reach from 0.1, to infinite
spd : Zoom speed, the fluctuation is based on this formula: 0.2*spd

Version 1.1
Code adapted to the new tilemap class.

Do you have a working demo?  I'll need access to to the other scripts its dependant on before I can fully yank out the SDK Dependancy.  Other info I've found points to SDK Tilemap Class that Im not having any luck with.

[Memor-X]

hang on, i think i've seen this script, i remember a Map Zoom Script that i wanted to use in Nexis Core because it could improve some of the scenes where there was a number of small rooms in one map and being zoomed in would allow me to cut characters out of the scene quicker, if it's the same script then it's this dam script's SDK dependency which has slowed Nexis Core's development right down, reason why i'm holding off doing any mapping until either ARCed comes out with it's own Map Zoom Event Command, i find a script like it which doesn't need the SDK or i give up

i'll jump onto C.C tonight and look up the script i have in my "SDK Virus Archive" to see if it's the same one, if it is i'll post up a demo unless someone beats me too it

Note that it's a normal version, it's not compatible with BABS since BABS overwrite Game_Player class
but I think it's compatible with XAS

I didn't hold BABS right now so I'm not sure where is the method in Blizz ABS that handles Player

Do you have a working demo?  I'll need access to to the other scripts its dependant on before I can fully yank out the SDK Dependancy.  Other info I've found points to SDK Tilemap Class that Im not having any luck with.

Thankfully, I have a demo of this script that was floating around in my hard drive.

I would test it now ^^, and I'll send feedbacks thanks Drago

Feedbacks

It works with XAS, but it's very glitchy, when you call the zoom syntax within the script call, the map just goes insane and duplicate event and there's no tiles anymore and have major slowdown (with zoom, the game run around 3 FPS) ...



And also, the maps are static ... The hero can move but the map don't scroll eigher (I'm serious, that's not a random event position, the event scroll but not the map (See the minimap))



And, if I attempt to teleport to another room, there's a nice message, maybe related to the Tilemap script that is confusing the default XAS script. (See pictore bellow)



Otherwise, that was a nice try, it proove that it works, but need more heavily information ... If someone can handle that, I wouldn't be able to handle that kind of script :/
Thanks in advance

if that line is pointing to sprite.bitmap = nil or something with bitmap = nil, delete that line
or try this XAS version : http://littledrago.blogspot.com/2013/05/rgss-xas-391-ally-system-v112.html

btw, because it seems impossible to recreate the zoom animation, I simplified the script, you can redownload both the script in previous links

$game_map.zoom(x,y,zoom)

Yay it works ! but the character isn't zoomed x(
Nah, the zooming animation can be done with event things I guess, with wait and zoom ratio, it can be enough ^^.

probably compatibility problem with your other scripts,
can you tell me your scripts order in your script editor?

try to delete or comment out this part of the script

I tested your XAS 3.91 and it works, I use the same version but mine have a tons of add-ons to be a Zelda engine. So, it is something relating to my configs, itherwise, your script works fine
It NEED to be added in the script database ^^
Thanks Drago
