Devil_Silver:

The problem you describe is inherent in the original Tilemap class. Fortunately, I've managed to create a replacement that synchronizes the autotile animation in connected maps. It will be part of the next release.

You guys (Flameguru and poccil) are absolute geniuses. I love your system, it has inspired me to get back into game making using your starter kit as a base.

What was once an empty shell of a game can now become complete, thank you :)

You mean, you're actually making all the move animations?

Damn... that's awesome!

If you need any help, I'll be glad to assist you. I'm fairly solid at Photoshop, so I'm useful for anything graphical ^.^

It's in PokeBattle_Move and it's an array called PBTypeChart

The types go in order (as they are defined inPBTypes) from top to bottom and left to right.

0 = No effect, 1 = Not very effective, 2 = regular damage, 4 = Super effective

So for your new type you will need to add a new line at the bottom of that list with the relative numbe, as well as an extra entry in all of the other lines stating how effective those types are against your new one.

I hope that was thorough enough, I always worry that I'm being too tedious with details.


*EDIT* Actually I've noticed a few weird things about this, there don't seem to be enough entires in the chart... I don't know whether it's just me but there are 18 types (including the ??? one) and only 16 entries in each line...
Click to expand...

Thanks, I understand fully now :). It's line 78 - 94, so that's 17, not 16. But there should be one more type, shouldn't there? And I don't think ??? counts as one....

There are 18 types. (including ???)

  • 1. Normal
  • 2. Dragon
  • 3. Flying
  • 4. Ground
  • 5. Fighting
  • 6. Rock
  • 7. Ghost
  • 8. Psychic
  • 9. Dark
  • 10. Fire
  • 11. Electric
  • 12. Water
  • 13. Ice
  • 14. Grass
  • 15. Steel
  • 16. Bug
  • 17. Poison
  • 18. ???
I'd like to say thanks for making such an indepth and realistic battle system and sharing, causing the 'pokemon community' to grow closer together.

I can help in photoshop if needed. No sense in everyone paying if only a few can.

Edit: In the typing script, right above the type chart, there is a physical/special section that controls which are special and which are physical. The numbers are equal to the PBTypes script.

Look at how the character sprites are arranged in the graphics that come with Essentials - you must have a 4x4 grid of sprites, in different frames.
If you mean the trainer battle sprite, the game shows the whole picture in battle anyway.

$PokemonBag.pbQuantity(PBItems::POTION)>0

I get this error, and I can't seem to fix it.

You mean STARTERPASS rather than POTION, right? If so, add an item with the internal name "STARTERPASS". If you did so, try selecting "Compile Data" from the debug menu or restart the game while holding CTRL. If you still have problems, please send me a private message rather than posting further here.

Just wondering... where EXACTLY do I find this "Pokefonts.zip" package? I would really like to change the font...
Click to expand...

It comes with the Pokemon Essentials.

Question:
How may I add Items? I see how in Notes.Html, but it's a little confusing, could someone put it in easier terms?

Thanks.

Well you can use Pokemon images for example the doubled D/P size. I tryed it with 160x160 Pokemon but poccil I don't think it's recommend kauz the images doesn't fit with the Summary Screen or in Battle. You would have to change all to D/P Images and that would take a loooooong while. So this featre isn't really good. (It is good but not for the actual scripts/pictures)

hey poccil i like your custom move mechanism but i suggest it isn´t possible to add all the dp moves... because some of them require changes to the battle system... and i think it´s only possible to add moves which take damage to the opponent and not changing the status or somethin like that.
Maybe you can change the battle system and add the dp moves... :)

Learn to script them yourself - it's not that hard.
Search for a RGSS guide on Google, and get used to it.
Then, look in the PokeBattle_MoveEffects script and have a go at making some more effects.
