Demo (Script included)

How to Use

[1] Settings
  Edit CC::pMS.
  CC::pMS::LAYERS decide how many layer it use and how does it appears.
  LAYERS[6] is Array for the animation. Set [] if you don't need the animation.
 
[2] Prepare Images
  In default, file directory is ./Graphics/ParallaxMaps/
 
  Filename format
  (1)without animation
  map[@map_id]_[name][type]
    ex1. 'map1_gnd0' is used when you enter map#1 and 'changer_var_id'  is zero.
 
  (2)with animation
  If LAYERS[6] is Array of Numeric, format will be;
  map[@map_id]_[name][type]_[anim_position]
    ex2. [1,2,3,2] and "map1_water0_1" -> "map1_water0_2" -> "map1_water0_3" -> "map1_water0_2"
 
  The script loads images automatically when you enter the map.
  and if required image is not found, nothing happens.
 
[3] Cache
  This script uses cache for speed. It can be heavy load for memory.
  Call "Cache.clear_parallax_map()" to clear cache manually.
 
[4] Remarks
  This script check files only when you enter the map and not again.
  So, even if you change some variables in the map, PMS don't react and change images.

This is EXACTLY what i was looking for :) . Thanks :)

Hmm... So I can achieve the same effects with this script as with DMO - LIQUID & PARALLAX SCRIPT but I can ALSO have normal parallax background?

By normal I mean the parallax background you put in your maps properties it and it can loop horizontally or vertically and it scrolls with a different speed than the rest of the map etc.

With DMO - LIQUID & PARALLAX SCRIPT you couldn't do that since you'd have to put your parallaxed MAP in to the parallax backround inside map properties.

Also can I adjust the Z position of the Events if I want to have some events above the TOP layer (like birds etc)?

Thanks so much for this awesome script! :rock-left: :D :rock-right:
 

Setting it anywhere from 101 to 200 works perfectly. BD

Looks like this:

I've been wondering... is there a way to make the top layers a little translucent when the player goes underneath?

I actually modified the script so I can determine each event's Z position separately if I want to :)

Nice idea, care to share? Perhaps CC_Yellow might even want to check that out. ;)

Also... any idea about this:
