Event Show Graphic Error

Adira · 2018-10-22T14:53:24+0900

Hello again! I've got a bit of a problem and I've tried to search for the solution but no such luck on finding anything. I might just be googling it wrong though. OTL;;; Okay, first off, I started a brand new project to make sure none of my plugins were causing the problem. As for my problem, I have two events, Event 1 is named Scene 1, Event 2 is named NPC 1. In Event 1, I use Set Event Location to move Event 2 onto the main part of my map. Then in Event 1, I select Move Route, pick Event 2, and select Change Graphic to a NPC I want to appear on the map. However, they are forever stuck in this position: I've played around with the features, but I can't get them to stay in the TURN DOWN position. I've turned walking on and off, tried to make them step forward and then stop walking, I've also tried check marking Direction Fix. All of which has resulted in them just remaining in this position. I'll attach some more screenshots of my exact event setup in hopes someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong. Thank you so much to anyone who can provide me with some answers. ♪

It's a bug in MV.
Here's a workaround in steps.
Step 1. Give the event any character graphics.

Step 2. Click on OK
Step 3. Save/Run the game
Step 4. Close the game if ran.
Step 5. Remove the graphic from the event

Step 6. Click on OK
Step 7. Save/Run the game
Step 8. Close the game if ran

I'll report this bug.

What is the bug? I looked for your bug report but couldn't find it. This issue happens with just one NPC event in my game as well, that starts off with no sprite.

Maybe because it's either not been posted yet or is under moderation just like any other thread in MV improvement boards?

Ah, forgot about moderation there ...

A bug really? Wow, I had no idea. Ugh, what bad luck. I was using this for all of my scenes to keep my map clean and organized by using the same NPC event for different characters coming in and out. Regardless, you have given me a work around while hopefully the problem is being fixed. Thank you so so much, for that and even taking the time out of your day to report the bug. I really appreciate it!

It sucks you are having the same issue. I hope for both of us and anyone else wanting to use this method that the problem gets patched up soon. Cheers!
