Avy's MZ Stuff

I replied a week or so ago that I love your animated objects and here you are with more. :kaojoy:
Now I just gotta hunt down your tutorial on how to show specific frames so I can use all 8 frames for opening that pot.

Edit- found it! Animations with More Frames

thanks for the reply! As for suggestion, maybe statue versions of the rtp characters?

I don't know if you're still taking suggestions for advent, but if you are something I've been thinking about for my maps are there are certain items I like the MV version of better, and some I like the MZ version of better, but its hard to mix and match them on the same map and have it look "right". Something like a MZification colorwise of MV RTP and a MVification of MZ RTP so the two could "play together" more nicely would be amazing imo.

But that also might be too big for an advent thing, so figuring this is a longshot suggestion.

It is a bit late, but I have actually written up a full tutorial on that - the only difference is that MVs colors are not as muted as FSMs, but otherwise, the same stuff applies:
RTP and FSM - How to make styles match each other | The Official RPG Maker Blog

That is an awesome tutorial!

Made this stage battleback for a request:

That looks awesome! Could you maybe create a few other curtain colors?

I made these for a resource request and I must say, I am really happy how they turned out:


Here stood a little ramble about how annoying it would be to make anthro parts for the generator with the technical limitations and my experience with people not being willing to put pieces together in gimp instead for example. I really wonder if someone ever used my mermaid base or if the little tutorial that came with it and the little extra steps made it not worthwile. Sigh.

No, don't be like that! I'm always looking for new bases, and if I may be so bold, I like to make the clothing myself if I can. Your extra steps and tutorials are always worth it!

There were two other things that came from requests, animated sand tiles.
First is probably more a wavering quicksand:

Second is a stream, but due to autotile limitations only works in a straigh vertical line:

I use your Mermaid template! (screen shot from my debug testing area)

More Anthro people please :)

I just want to say that I am super grateful for you Avery! I'm getting into RPG Maker and was a bit taken aback at just how many things were missing from the RTP (especially the emosets) and how many things could be added to it. A lot of the options I found quickly were paid, and I don't have 50 bucks to easily drop on new assets. I'm super thankful you've been putting out such high quality images for so long, and I might actually look at your tutorials, despite graphics being about as far away from my strengths as possible, since it seems like you have five dozen really well made ones! Last thanks: Thank you again! I'm super glad that I found you early on in my RPG Maker days. I hope you have an awesome year and enjoy the holidays!

Hey @Avery , I included the library tileset, that you made in one of your Advents a while back, in my game. Thought you might like to see a screen shot of:

Oh my god I love it! Thank you for showing!

did you use editing software for the lighting?

I'm using one of the Lighting Plugins; Community_Lighting_MZ.

Here is the link if you are interested:
MV - Community Lighting MV & MZ

is it hard to learn?

Well, I don't know what your experience level is when dealing with Plugins. It is by far, not the most complicated Plugin I've ever used, but it is also not super simple. It takes a little messing around with but I would say it is not hard to learn.

ok thank you
