Custom Animation Move (Elite Battle System)

So for anyone that wants my primal reversion animation (nothing major)

[PokeCommunity.com] Custom Animation Move (Elite Battle System)

Spoiler:

ill update this post when i figure out how to set up different signs like the official games.

the files for it are in the .zip below; put them in "Graphics/Animations" the last one is empty to show no symbol currently.

Good! Maybe i will draw something to change these circle (like original games).

Also, you can put this:
Code: 
  def pbPrimalAnimation(attacker,pokemon)
    if !(pokemon.species!=383 || pokemon.form<1) && !CUSTOMANIMATIONS
      return GroudonAnimation(attacker,pokemon)
    elsif !(pokemon.species!=382 || pokemon.form<1) && !CUSTOMANIMATIONS
      return KyogreAnimation(userindex,targetindex)
    end
  end

  def GroudonAnimation(attacker,pokemon)
	blablabla
  end
  
  def KyogreAnimation(attacker,pokemon)
	mimimi
  end
Always when 'pbPrimalAnimation(attacker,pokemon)' is called, will be called one of them...

EDIT: Also, if you want the symbols:

thanks! managed to figure it out; had to turn on the opacity stuff for it as its disabled(?) now shows image as shown in the original message; script updated; if you can make something for it could be cool to stand out more but not 100% needed (even figuring out how to make the circle black/dark would help) but again would stand out with a different animation

Do you still have the .zip? I don't see it in your post anywhere.
 
kinda stuck with locating where the weather animations are/where their handled. any idea? besides the first bit in EliteBattle_Animations;

Code: 
case weather
    when PBWeather::RAINDANCE
      return 1
    when PBWeather::THUNDER
      return 1
    when PBWeather::HAIL
      return 3
    when PBWeather::SANDSTORM
      return 4
    when PBWeather::SUNNYDAY
      return 7

beyond this i cant really find anything about the animations creation

It's actually Essentials that handles the EBS animations for weather. The only tweaks done to EBS is when to invoke it, and how to position the viewport. This will change in a later iteration, but for now the weather animation is actually being borrowed from
Code: 
class Weather

So If I wanted to change how busy the snow animation is in EBS where would I look in the script to change that?
 
I'm not sure if anyone will do this, but can anyone make a script for surf? That would be dope.
 
I mean, no one is posting animation scripts, so yeah it's kind of dead. If you want to make move animations, I suggest using the default Essentials Move Editor. To see default Essentials animations, go to Settings, and set "REPLACEMISSINGANIM" to true. If you need more help with the Essentials Move Animator, watch Thundaga's video, he knows it all.

Also because a complete reboot of EBS is being worked on (called EBDX), which may make the current system obsolete imo. The new system comes probably when Essentials v18 does.

Wait a minute, is essentials v18 already out?

Wait... No... My whole life has been a lie.

What exactly is EBDX then?
