Author's Notes

Please comment, and give credit. this was a very very simple event.

G_G

Pretty cool. This is neat *lv's up*

Sally

Thanks... uhm

i was very proud of myself.

Calintz

The description is very vague of how the system actually works ...
Do you have to call it with a common event or something?? Or is it on constant display somewhere??

Jackolas

maybe its also an idea to put in the title that it is for VX and not for XP

Calintz

...Yeah, that would have been nice, lol.
I don't use VX, but this is still interesting as I said.

I just wish you would have put more effort into the 1st post.

Its a World Map. Think of it that way. The little ball goes to the square of the map you're in.
Okay so you're in a town known as G_G Rocks. The ball will go on the square that represents G_G Rocks. And the item calls the common event which calls the picture. And everytime you enter a map you have to set the ball variables.

Calintz

So then this is THE world map?? Like, interactive!?
Wouldn't it be better to replace the dot with a charaset in some manner then!?

G_G

its up to the user how they use it :P

If you know how to call a common event from your menu, you can have it in your menu, like i do.

Calintz

Let me actually download the whole demo, and I'll get back to you.

edit:
Well, it won't let me play it.

Well, maybe once entering a dungeon you could set a variable that will show the location of the boss in that particular dungeon. Skull icon like the Zelda games ...

Aqua

Cal, it's VX.  You have VX? XD

Calintz

No, but I thought maybe it was standalone ...

i can make a XP version... its just a couple of event lines.

but yeah thats easy, thats just another option by the user but when i feel like it ill add in a dungeon.

edit: and for vx, theres the vehicles so ill probable put on the map where each vehicle is.

Calintz


Vell

it's not so much a 'world map' as it is a 'map of the world' to be used. like the Town Map in pokemon handhelds.

Sally


Jackolas

anyway... for events this is really nicely done.
would never thought it up.. to bad its for VX :P
would love to see a XP version :P

Sally

Thanks, its an event, most simple events work with both Vx and XP, just copy the events over from Vx, to XP, but ill make a XP demo.

Jackolas


Sally

XP version out, updated first post.

Jackolas

this is so simply.... its pure brilliance :P
Ty for this 1 :P
