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

1. Get the error message and show it to us. The error sounds like it might be poccil's fault, but I'm not going to spend forever trawling through the scripts if your error message has the problem line number in it.

2. Yes. It involves changing pbGetCurrentRegion to depend on a game variable (0=National, 1=Region 1, etc.), and then to change that variable elsewhere quite simply. It's up to you to add the "Change region" option wherever you want it.

Well, it will be later. I can´t find the line on the errolog.txt, and I can´t use rpg maker on this computer, since it's public(from a café internet).

If I want to set up a trainer player I have to find the map: Intro, but where can I find that map?

If it wasn't deleted, then it should be the first map on the bottom-left of RMXP.

Is there a reason that the AVI script doesn't support XVid encoded AVI Files? This is really frustrating because it will add a lot of unnecessary file space if I can't encode my AVI files. Any idea what can be done to solve this issue? Any help would be great...

I thought about adding a whole new "species" for each Pokémon, but then again when the player gets their national dex, there will be 100-200 duplicates of the Pokémon that are in my region.

Also, I would probably need to end up having about 100-200 return false codes if there is 100-200 seperate colored Pokémon, right?

Well, thanks for the help.

Adding species is a bad way to go about it. I mean really bad.

I told you you can use alternate forms.

What you can do to alleviate the dozens of "return false" lines is to put all the species that will have further alternate forms (that won't be shiny) into an array, and then write a few lines of code that checks through that array and returns true/false depending on if there's a match.

Alternatively, a much easier way would be to look at the form number itself. If it's not zero (i.e. it's an alternate form) then return false (i.e. there's no shiny version of it). You can then make exceptions for Giratina and Wormadam and so on, which can have shiny alternate forms - there's only about a dozen species with alternate forms, so it's easy enough to do.

Me and Luca posted a bunch in his Merry Christmas thread, check there, I got it to work eventually. Although, I'm not bothering with animated trainers.

I did check there. Actually I just figured out everything exept the transparency? I don't get it. no matter how I import the graphics, they still have the colored backround. I tried to change the color, nothing. The first and second frame have the same names and I don't know if that is causing the problem but I don't see how you can change it. Idk. If you can tell me how you got the transparency of you battler graphics to work, I would be greatfull.

Download Paint.NET. Open your graphics in there, and use the magic wand tool to delete the colored background. Save as a PNG and it should save the transparency.

I have paint. Thats how I make my graphics. I havent tried to use a white backround if thats what your saying but I'll try it.

No, I said, "Paint.NET". It's a completely different program.

It's like a free version of Photoshop. Just use the magic wand tool to select the background you wanted to be transparent, delete it, and save the whole thing as a PNG.

Well... this is weird. I installed RPG Maker XP on this public ocmputer and nothing is wrong with the pokédex this time. I went to the second region of mine (since I have two regions)and then the pokédex showed up good. Nothing was wrong. I don't know why, though.
Could the problem be my computer?

Pokemon Essentials is very fickle. Once, I fixed a problem just by copy-pasting my whole project to another folder...

Pretty Nice Starter Kit for RMXP!

I may try it ^_^

 

[mackoo]

Mine Pokemon Essentials is also weird.
It saves game in C\Users\<MyUserName>\Saved Games, not in folder of the game. But on other PC's it works normal...

Oh, ok. Sorry. Thanks! I have a hard time paying attention sometimes. Thanks for the help.

It's okay, I forgive you :P. Hope it works out for you.

How do you get the hg/ss menu for your menu in the game?

How do you get the hg/ss menu for your menu in the game?

Obvious answer, you script it yourself after learning how to script.

So I am trying to check the tileset in Playtest but I get this error:

Exception: NoMethodError
Message: undefined method `tileset_name' for nil:NilClass
Game_Map_:34:in `setup'
PokemonMap:662:in `getMap'
PokemonMap:882:in `setMapsInRange'

Game_Map_:49:in `setup'
PokemonMap:573:in `setup'
Scene_Map:212:in `transfer_player'
PokemonDebug:343:in `pbDebugMenu'

Is it something having to do with the tileset? That's pretty much the only thing that makes sense to me..
