Minkoff Animated Battlers Enhanced - Help [RESOLVED?]

[CrimsonInferno 35]

I'm trying to get this script to work. Its Minkoff's of course.

Do you see the girl with green hair on the right of the screen? Where your party goes. I'm trying to change her into....look below Minkoff's image.

 

Into this little guy.

Into one of these. Now, I know what you're thinking. `Crimson, you can't use VX characters as XP characters.' But I can, I did and I will.

I don't know how I'd go about changing the green hair girl to my blue haired guy...

 

If this can't be done for VX characters, how would I go about doing it with XP generated characters? I've tried my very best to read through the comments on the other forums and they said mess with variables or something in the script - I can't do it Y.Y

 

If it can't be done for Minkoff's script, than I am willing to use Sideview Battle System Tankentai XP.

 

The script is sooo confusing to me right now. I barely have time after school to write in my novel and than sit down and learn scripting. That'll have to wait when my novel is done before I can actually learn.

 

So, anyone have any help they can offer a girl who doesn't know shiz about the script?

 

P.S

The people on the other forum said I had to switch some parts around in the script...I don't know if they were messing with me, but I'm not sure...

[CrimsonInferno 35]

Yes. A few questions. But my main concern is:

 

Could I try the VX character thing and see if I do it right by putting it here to be checked?

I think I get it....but to be sure, I'll have to test and post. Will that be okay?

 

Thank you for helping, Nisage. Not a lot of people like helping me or others...

[Nisage 31]

Sure, that's ok. You're welcome, and I like to help. I see on XP/VX sites questions that haven't been answered and I see the answers to those questions the either the same site or on others. It's sad :( So I'm doing what I can to help out, evne if it's only a bit since, if I had any questions, I would like them to be answered (nicely and truthfully of course, not like how you were answered on that site you mentioned a few posts ago). Oops, got a bit off topic, sorry about that.

[CrimsonInferno 35]

Well, I know this forum has more class and nice people in it than any other forum I've ever been too...there are only two good forums that I'll ever like to go to; here and FFE.

 

S'okay, I get off topic a lot actually. lol

I'm gonna edit this post with the image when I'm done, kay? :)

 

EDIT:

 

Like this but with a color behind him? How do I make this character a battler?

[Nisage 31]

FFE? That's a new site to me. For the color behind him yeah, since when I imported him intp XP, the background was black, so any black he had is now transparent, which makes him look....... Well anyway I'll put him next to my Kung-Fu Girl and see if they both move the same. -Few moments later- Looks pretty close, one row looks like it's is a bit to much to the right. Hard to tell but I think it might be rows 3 and 4 that are off, 1 and 2 seem ok. A battler is tricky, either someone makes one from scratch, recolors one to look close to the Sprite, or use the Hero Machine 2.5

But not many use the Hero Machine for some reason. Probably do to the lack of poses.

[CrimsonInferno 35]

Sweet! I can handle making it perfect :)

But is it possible to cut the life size battler to just have a sprite of my character? I really don't like the life size avatars, scares me lol

 

So, when I make my little blue guy perfectly aligned, I can just go into the ACTORS part in the XP control panel (whatever its called lol) and click battler and make it into the battler? I know how to make him into the walking character, I did that a while ago. I've actually converted a lot of VX characters in XP character very easily :)

 

EDIT:

OH! I see! The only problem I'm facing now is that he doesn't have a death pose when he dies and color hue problems, but I can easily fix that.

Any idea on how to make my little blue dude (and later more characters) have a dead pose?

 

EDIT: 2

Alright, the dead pose will come later. I guess my questions have been answered...? I dunno...

I'm making this a resolved thread now, since Nisage helped me because I know nothing about it :)

 

I'm gonna try to learn how to make cut scenes now!

[Nisage 31]

You know how you give a character a Sprite in RMXP? That's all you do, the Script uses their Sprites for the battle. I had it set up where the Kung-Fu Girl (really should name her to make it easier to type :P) had nothing in the Battle Graphic in the Actors tab in Database. Also, they already have a dead pose, the script takes the Sprite and turns it, making them lie down on the ground. You just need to convert the VX Sprites into XP Sprites and that should be it. I'll play around with the script to see if there's anything else.
