[XP] Blizz-ABS

Priceless. xD

What changed between 2.71 -> 2.74?

And can it finally be truuuuuuuue?
I don't need charasprites for drops?

Oh winkio, you are my savior, I can continue updating now <3

[winkio]

drop character sets were made optional in 2.71

2.74 has an unfinished version of the combo system for people to mess around with - although it's not built into the config app yet.  Just take a look at the included Part 1 script for instructions.

There is a random bug that's popped up on me, and it is so OBNOXIOUS!!!

While running or sneaking, you can jump fine when facing up, left, or down, but you cannot jump at all while facing right.

You can jump to the right ONLY at normal speed: holding the run or sneak buttons disables it entirely.

I'm pretty sure it was working the last time I used it, so if something changed in my computer to mess it up then...dang.

Has anybody else experienced this?

It happens with the latest BABS I might add.

I also get this error while trying to use BABS 2.74

Spoiler: ShowHide

What I REALLY wanna know about is the jumping bug, and if there's a possible fix to it. Far as i'm concerned it RUINS gameplay

[winkio]

1.  I'll look into the jumping bug ASAP

2.  As per Part 1 of the script, add these lines in the Weapons, Skills, Items, and Enemies modules:

def self.combo(id)
      return 0
    end

EDIT:  Jumping works fine for me.  Send me a demo.

[Shining Riku]

Thanks Winkio. I really appreciate your help.

I hope it's not just my computer, the jumping bug...
I don't get any error windows it just doesn't work.
If it IS my computer then i'm screwed 

[winkio]

As I said, post up a quick demo.  Another quick test you might want to try is to holding down random buttons (spacebar, /, P, and ') while trying to jump right and see if it doesn't work, because it could be something with your keyboard.

[Shining Riku]

Ok, i'm going to set up the demo now

My computer's awful and hates compressing stuff....so i'm gonna try figuring out a way to get this to work. I'll have it up soon as I can but that may be half an hour @_@

EDIT: The bare bones demo.

I included everything that makes it mess up on my computer but cut out all the unnecessary stuff. All you'll see is one of the debug rooms I had and all the items cut out but one

With this new release, is there better support for SDK 2.4 than the previous releases?
I really need to know, I've been looking for an ABS that works with my project all morning, and 2.71 failed to do so. I tried XAS an hour ago and it was working fine until i received an "Unknown method > for class bla bla bla (That's outrageous).

[winkio]

@Riku:  I'll take a look

@Sephiron: It's the same support as previous versions - 100% compatible.  The SDK (version 2.4) is included in the development project as a test, and there are no problems.

EDIT: @Riku, I can jump in all directions, sorry, but it's probably a problem with your keyboard.  Changing your jump button might help.

Oh, well then the problem is most likely because i have a script incompatibility of some sort. I remember using Blizz-abs a while back, and i loved it. It's alot faster and easier than XAS, and i didn't need any manuals at all to use it. I was sorta hoping i would never have to resort to XAS. Thanks for this release! Glad to know that some people don't just abandon their projects after a few years since the initial release.

[Shining Riku]

Thanks again Winkio!

I did as you suggested and played around with random buttons but it didn't do anything. I also unplugged my keyboard, blew into the connector, and plugged it back in.

I didn't expect the last one to help but I did it anyways lol. You never know @_@

[elmangakac]

Mode 7 does usually not work with Blizz-ABS. If it does, it's probably a miracle and a unique combination that won't work with anything else. So yeah.

Thanks for your help -___-!!

A lot of keyboards simply can't handle certain three button combinations. You might have to either find another keyboard, or use a gamepad.

[legacyblade]

Ya, that happens a lot with older keyboards. Playing lost vikings via emulator on my friend's old keyboard was nearly impossible. It's your keyboard, not the script or the computer.

[Shining Riku]

Wow. My other keyboard could handle it and it was older. @_@

I'm gonna have to see if it's still functional

Guys, you've been a great help! Thanks for your time! *levels up*

EDIT: Used the old keyboard I had. IT WORKED!
My baby works 

So glad I didn't chuck this keyboard.

The buttons are so smooth from being used lol

[Sephiron]

Hey, i can call the pre menu perfectly, but when i open the normal menu i get an RGSS error on my SDk.

Any help?

[winkio]

line 4509 in SDK 2.4 is a comment in my version.  Either post the line or post up a demo.

[Wizered67]

Wait a minute......
Did you just say in your version??!!

You have SDK!!!!!!

just kidding, lol
