[Archive] Pokemon Essentials: Starter Kit for RPG Maker XP

[ChaosLord]

Sorry to bother you guys but i have another question. How do you make that Pokemon follows you like in Heart gold? :S

Last I checked,Pokemon Essentials doesn't have that feature.The only one kit that does is Venom 12's starter kit.

Last I checked,Pokemon Essentials doesn't have that feature.The only one kit that does is Venom 12's starter kit.

Venom uses Help14's script in his kit. You can just find the original script and drop it into whatever version of essentials you have (and of course following the directions for its use in his thread). For the most part, Venom's kit is, from what I can tell, a compilation of many different scripts provided by different users, putting it all in one simple package.

Hi what is wrong with bad dreams ability?

Spoiler:

for i in 0..1
@battlers.effects[PBEffects::BadDreams]=0
end
for i in 0..3
@battlers.pbOpposingSide.effects[PBEffects::BadDreams]+=1 if isConst?(@battlers.ability,PBAbilities,:BADDREAMS)
end
for i in 0..3
if @battlers.status==PBStatuses::SLEEP && @battlers.pbOwnSide.effects[PBEffects::BadDreams]==0
@battlers.pbReduceHP(@battlers.totalhp/8.floor) if @battlers.pbOwnSide.effects[PBEffects::BadDreams]==1
@battlers.pbReduceHP(@battlers.totalhp/4.floor) if @battlers.pbOwnSide.effects[PBEffects::BadDreams]==2
if !pbOwnedByPlayer?(i)
if @opponent
pbDisplay(_INTL("{1} is being tormented by the foe DARKRAI's Bad Dreams!",@battlers.pbThis))
else
pbDisplay(_INTL("{1} is being tormented by the wild DARKRAI's Bad Dreams!",@battlers.pbThis))
end

Okay guys, but Venom can you send me the script so that i know? I don't wanna bother download it because i still wouldn't know where is the script and stuff..

I really wanna make it available that Pokemon can walk with you.

I found several new bugs in essentials, before listing I am trying to fix they because is better to list they with their fixes!
One of they is the Rain Dance/Sunny Day bug that incorrectelly put they damage, but I found a very strange line:

 if weather==PBWeather::RAINDANCE
   if isConst?(type,PBTypes,:FIRE)
    damage>>=1

What did the "damage>>=1" line mean?

I'm having a bug and I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem or could help me with it. In the battle scene, when you choose which move to attack with, if you are on the top right move and hit the right arrow again, the cursor will move to the next move, but it will still use the second one. I have been trying to fix this all day, but to no avail. I always seem to mess things up more. I believe the error is in PokeBattle_ActualScene and has something to do with the method def pbNextIndex. I would appreciate any help or advice.

I also noted this before:

Move Cursor Glitch
Versions: All
How activate: Have a pokémon with 3/4 moves, press up when selecting a move in top.
Effect: The cursor goes down, but the move selected doesn't change.
How fix: Unknown

my autotiles wont show up in game! they are there in RPGXP, but when playing the actual game or playtesting they dont appear. I have no tiles over them, just grass underneath and it isnt x'd out on the database or anything. Any help?

Checks the passability and the order of tiles. If this won't work check the "Options" menu if the "Custom" is selected

How do make the game allow you walk behind trees; it either makes me walk on them or disallows me to walk behind!

-is there an event to solve this?

In tilesets put the passability "O" and the priority at least 1.

Anyone know how to check the happiness of a pokemon in the party when you don't know what slot its in?

pbChoosePokemon(1,3)
$game_variables[ZZZ]=
pbGetPokemon(1).happiness

Where ZZZ is the number where you want that value be store. You can also change the "happiness" on code for the other PokeBattle_Pokemon atributes like pokerus, level, exp, item (number), etc... , checks the advanced topics on essentials documentation.

Okay guys, but Venom can you send me the script so that i know? I don't wanna bother download it because i still wouldn't know where is the script and stuff..

I really wanna make it available that Pokemon can walk with you.

 if weather==PBWeather::RAINDANCE
   if isConst?(type,PBTypes,:FIRE)
    damage>>=1

What did the "damage>>=1" line mean?

It's a combination of a bitwise shift and an assignment. It's basically shorthand for:

damage=(damage/2).floor

Bitwise shifts deal with binary numbers. If you knock off the last digit of a binary number, you've halved that number (just like when you knock the last digit off a decimal number, you've divided it by 10). That's rounded down, of course. The "1" part means you just knock the last 1 digit off.

Other examples:

• damage>>=2 means to divide by 4 (knock the last 2 digits off the binary number).
• damage<<=1 means to double the number (same as damage*=2). Here you're adding a digit (a "0") onto the end of the binary number.

Surprisingly I can't find anywhere on the Interweb that actually defines this function; it's just listed in tables with no explanation of what it actually does. It makes sense, though, when you know what ">>" does (bitwise shift down) and you relate that to how it affects the damage of the move (i.e. it must change the value by itself, hence the "=" part). It's literally a combination of ">>" and "=".

How do i put a different music for a pokemon trainer battle? It just plays som,e random crap.

Anyone had any custom Pokédex/Status screen/Bag screen/Item PC screen script?
I personally prefer the ones that can support big moves/abilities/item descriptions

Hi!
I have a problem. I believe that I use the Pokemon Essential of January 2010.
I saw this: https://pokemonessentials.wikia.com/wiki/Summary_screens
and I want to fix the Experience bar and I added this (in blue):



But, Error in the Summary Egg!

I did not put this because the RPG MAKER say Method Error in Summary Info:
drawMarkings(overlay,80,40,72,20,pokemon.markings)

How can I do that it works well?

Have you done right? Im my version this is working with Experience bar fix, but may be for January Version.
Testing your problem lets me found another bug ofr 3th April 2010 version (and not the lastest ones)! In PokeBattle_Pokemon, after the attr_accessor group put "attr_accessor(:abilityflag)" or the game crash when you receive an egg for Day Care!

Thank you Maruno! I asked several people but only you know the solution!

Here two ways:
-Use the event command "Change Battle BGM" (for the next battle only)
-In trainernames.txt edit the Field 5 (for every time that yor battle versus this trainer type)

I've been wondering, I've downloaded the latest version and no matter what I do, I cant set a map to ''outdoor'' with the metadata or else it'll crash. I even tried with the Kit alone and it crashes as soon as you get to a map with ''outdoor=true''. And Also I can't get the running shows to work. (I am using the script to add them and everything.
So I was wondering what's was up with that.

Thanks.

One Question:
How can I do that it could not gain experience in a place that is not the Battle Tower?

Hey!
I found a bug about the Experience bar bugfix:
https://pokemonessentials.wikia.com/wiki/Summary_screens

If a Pokemon is of level 100 this happens:

 

[Nickalooose]

Anyone know what this error is about, it comes up when i click PokéGear in the menu, this error has never existed until now!

i cant tell you what version im using because i downloaded it so long ago... this is irritating me so much as im trying to release a demo...

What I want to do is show the trainer wearing different clothes based on what he or she has equipped. I also want to change the way the trainer command on the pause menu works. I want it to show what the trainer has equipped for their clothes and allow them to equip different clothes. Does anyone know how I would go about doing this? If it's too confusing, I can post a mockup of what I mean, and if this doesn't belong here, I can make a new thread for it.

Move Cursor Glitch
Versions: All
How activate: Have a pokémon with 3/4 moves, press up when selecting a move in top.
Effect: The cursor goes down, but the move selected doesn't change.
How fix: Unknown

I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem. Do you have any idea how to fix it?

 

[bj117]

Well, at default, the actor's all blank. For actor data to be there, a script command needs to occur to define what the hero will be (Such as a boy or a girl).

Looking at the intro event in the example game, that function appears to be:

pbChangePlayer(0)

The number goes from 0-3, 0 being PlayerA and 3 being PlayerD

So you need to make a Call Script that does that script command. You can edit specific names and sprites of what that player choice would be by going into Metadata -> Global within Editor.exe.

If all seems lost, just follow what the example game's intro is like.

I'm having what I think is the same problem in that my character in the example game is invisible. I can see the 'splash' around his motion when I move him but not the character himself. In the instructions in the quote I can find the global metadata from the editor, but do I add the pbChangePlayer(0) code here or somewhere else? Where do I look to see how the example game's intro is setup? I am not familiar yet with how to make a call script.

Update - It may be that I should be asking a different question as I understand that I'm supposed to talk with Professor Oak at the beginning of the intro to get a character and this isn't happening.

You should have a map called Intro by default in Essentials, which has the player's starting position and an event at the top left that handles the intro functions (i.e. the speech, selecting your gender, entering your name). The event has to be on autorun, and the end of the event should include a transfer player command to send them to where you want them to start playing from (like the player's house). So as long as you have pbChangePlayer(0), pbTrainerName, and a transfer player command, your intro event should be fine. And if you don't already know, the script command is the last event command on the 3rd tab.

Hello again, I've got another problem.
When a Pokémon is poisoned, when you walk around for long enough he finaly gets back to his normal status but the text saying he recovered says ''{1}'' (number in the party, first Pokémon) instead of the Pokémon Name.

I've looked around quite a bit but couldn't find anything yet so I'm asking here.

Thanks
