either put it as a new script below the ABS, or every time you update the script, you can fix it directly in the code.

AWESOME, that's perfect.  Didn't want the hub showin' up on a black screen...

What's this alias business anyway, if you don't mind me askin' off-topically (I'm doin' my best to learn the scripting ways)

[elmangakac]

when I get that, the enemy is set to use a skill that you've deleted from the database. That is a configuration error though. no doubt about it.

MY PROBLEM PERSIST!

I create a new project ... i put the last version of BLIZZ ABS... i create all the skills and enemies again with BLIZZ abs config.exe... i configue the enemies only with existing skills.... and the problem still there

When?:

-If My character use a skill... and the enemy its attacking ... the RANGE RADIUS appears and the error crash my game...
-If My character use a skill... and the enemy its attacking with a projectile...the RANGE RADIUS appears and the error crash my game...
-But if the enemy dont do anything in the map.... the RANGE RADIUS can appear and the skill works...

the crash issue appear in this line of GAME BATTLER 3 Script

I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO T_____T

Please please people...


you have to help me....

PD: Sorry abour my english.... im from CHILE

[Magus]

I've done it! I finally did it. I created a boss battle in the blizz-abs. It looks like it was created using XAs, but using BLIZZ's enemy projectile, and some complicated custom move route, I finally done it!

Without a doubt, it took me some work to get it to work properly. But man I gotta thank blizzard for making such a user friendly abs.

Anything is possible with it... now to hone on my boss-creating skills. (on top of that... working on design..)

wow! Why dont you make a Demo? 

[Sase]

The animating tab or the movement tab in the manual didn't cover this, so I'll have to ask here:

Can you use a Character sprite for the 8-way movement (custom for upright, downright, upleft, downleft, you get the point)? If I can, how.

[Aqua]

You could probably pull it off with eventing.
Use conditionals to check which directions are pressed, and change the graphics accordingly


Lol... posted this on the wrong topic at first...
Yay for mod powers :3

That could be easy but I hate setting it off with a switch every time a chat window pops up (because that way you could change the sprite even when talking).

By the way I think you can remove your own posts without moderating powers (at least I have the Remove button)

[RoseSkye]

How do I check if summons are in a party?
Also how do I make summons use skills?

[(Hexamin)]

I know you can make summons use skills by setting their AI in the menu Blizz set up.

As for the other question... I know not, and am suddenly curious about it.

(The characters you are using for your summons have the skills you want them to use set up in their class right?)

[RoseSkye]

Yes they do.

I looked inside the script. I picked up a few things from looking at the default RMXP scripts.... its surprisingly like eventing. I am now able to make amateur script systems... however, I didn't see anything familar inside Blizz's Scene AI_Behavior that allows me to bypass the main character (actor 0) when changing AI.

Can someone aid a Rose out? I'm on the brink of making a l337 pet system.

[(Hexamin)]

Are you trying to set up predefined AI's for pets?  I've wondered this too.  I'll look into the script too!  Maybe we can figure something out.

[RoseSkye]

Yeah. If there was a way to change the pet's allignment system that'd be great too.

[Hellfire Dragon]

Is there a way to check if the player used a certain skill against a certain enemy? The only thing I could find in the manual was checking if the player attacked/used skill against a certain enemy event. I want to check whenever the player uses a skill against a certain enemy (enemy ID in the database) and then call a common event whenever that happens but I don't want to have to go and put an event on every map the enemy appears on.
So can this be done?

[RoseSkye]

The only thing I could find in the manual was checking if the player attacked/used skill against a certain enemy event.

So can this be done?

How can you answer your own question and not realize you answered your own question.

Yes it can be done, you just explained how.

[Landith]

I think he meant like the actual enemy in the database, not the actual event. That way you could set up certain skills that act differently to certain enemies and not the same to other ones. Like lets say there was a ghost you couldn't see, you could use a skill called 'reveal' to reveal the ghost but if you used it on something else like a tiger it wouldn't work.

[(Hexamin)]

The way I set up my enemies, I have a "template" enemy, and just copy and paste him with skills calling common events or affecting the enemies in certain ways.  If you did that, and just added some conditional branches for the specifics, it might initially take a little more work, but then all you'd have to do is copy and paste one enemy, then change his name accordingly.

[RoseSkye]

Like lets say there was a ghost you couldn't see, you could use a skill called 'reveal' to reveal the ghost but if you used it on something else like a tiger it wouldn't work.

Exactly. I mean its the person editing the game who assigns the graphics for the event.

Parallel Process + trigger +  eventing = What he wants.

The thing you just described can easily be made if you ma.. hold on let me show you.

Spoiler: ShowHide

[Hellfire Dragon]

Okay I got it Rose, still would've been easier to check the enemy database ID though

[(Hexamin)]

hmm... well, i know its still going along with the thing you don't want to do... having to put code into the event, but... its simpler.

Spoiler: ShowHide

Then when you call an event, have it flip a switch that calls another common event, and that new event will be able to read $game_variables[1] as the enemy's database id.
