hey can someone explain Picture Movie Scenes script to me? i wanna do like an intro thingy. but i get confused reading the directions for that script.
like when it says
"#   If you want to use this scene an intro before the Title, you have to apply
#   the syntax mentioned above in the Main script. Just change the
#   $scene = Scene_Title.new
#   to the desired syntax and don't forget to set its returning to Scene_Title."

do i edit the script named "Main"? cause i was told by a friend to never touch that script or I'll ruin my game haha.

[Blizzard]

You shouldn't touch it if you don't know what you're doing. But since I left exact instructions what you need to edit, you will be fine if you follow them. In other words: You can modify it without ruining your game.

Hey Blizzard, someone is using your script to show off on youtube and isnt crediting you...

[Chiefstah]

hey Blizzard thanks for the help. sorry to be a bother but i have another question. are you able to play background sound along with background music at the same time with the picture movie scene script?

[Blizzard]

I haven't build that in already? O_o I'll do that ASAP.

@mumerus: Thanks, I just posted there. :3

[Calintz]

Hey everyone...
Blizzard, just how far has this script come since the beginning of all the sites changes??

[Blizzard]

Not too far. I had barely time to work on it. I think that v6.0x was still on the old CP site.

[Calintz]

Yeah, but still...That means I need to update sometime.

[Punn]

Ideas:
Counter state (able to change percent of doing a counter and how much percent of the damage will be returned)
Absorbing HP/MP weapons
Discharge (absorbs all the damage for the same battle, then releases the total amount of damage given to the user, ie, if a enemy attack Jason and cause 5000 and another enemy hit him and causes 1000, then when Jason use Discharge it causes 6000 damage regardless of defense and resistance)

[GAX]

Heh, as soon as the stuff I'm waiting to see is put into Tons of Addons, I'm gonna go crazy ^^

Chaotic Fury is using v. 6.02, and it's doing pretty well at the moment.

Keep up the good work Blizz-man, be expecting a big thanks in the credits for the demo...which I better get my ass working on, eh?

[Blizzard]

Lol, yeah. I'm currently revamping Blizz-ABS Config for 2.0. It will have a much better object model standing behind the application and be made much better for future expansions. I will also implement a full reader and writer for Ruby's Marshal format which I will use to save the cfg files. ^_^ It might even support a multiple document interface.
After I'm done I'll work on Blizz-ABS 1.99. Then comes a new Tons and some fixes and extras for a couple of other scripts (like the compatibility plugin for CLRS and Blizz-ABS <3). And then I will continue working on CP. ^_^ When Blizz-ABS 2.0 with the new Blizz-ABS Config comes out is not decided yet.

[Ryex]

oh blizz I'm not sure if this question ask been asked already but how easy is it to extract individual add-ons form this script so you can use the ones you want and avoid compatibility errors from others??

for example I managed to De-SDK a pixel movement script but it has issues with tons,  it throws an error when the pixel movement script tries to check passibility.

[Blizzard]

You can just delete the code of the add-ons. That's why every add-on was separated.

[Ryex]

Really? none of them use part of another?  well that makes it really simple! thank for the help!

[Blizzard]

Minimap uses Quick Passability and Hud can use the Bars, but that's already it.

[Blizzard]

Update to v6.54b.

[Fantasist]

A small error in 'Status Effects as Icons' where draw_text gets a nil for the string (which is the enemy name), somewhere around line 3367 in Part 1.

end
    if enemy.states.size > 0
---->text = enemy.name<-----
      s = enemy.states.find_all {|i| $data_states[i].rating > 0}

EDIT:

Something wrong with Passability addons (Quick Pass. Test => minimap)


A bug with Blizz-Art in Tons of addons, making an error with STCMS when trying to change bar opacity:

  def bar_opacity=(alpha)
    @bar_opacity = [[alpha, 0].max, 255].max
  end

[Blizzard]

That problem with enemy name must be a custom script. enemy.states.size couldn't be more than 0 if enemy.name doesn't work.
