OcRam MZ -plugins

OcRam · 2020-09-04T01:22:49+0900

Introduction This is the main thread for all of OcRam RMMZ -plugins! NOTE: ALL OcRam MZ -plugins are RETRO'able to MV! RETRO thread (for MV): Click here Spoiler: MZ Demo -project video Terms of Use: Click here OcRam_Core is required by all other OcRam (MZ) -plugins. Purpose of this plugin is to keep code base minimal, optimize memory and CPU usage. OcRam_Battle_Core This plugin provides battle features like action sequences, substitute behaviours, animated SV enemies, enhanced damage popups and much more! This is also required by other OcRam_Battle -plugins. OcRam_Battle_Troops Ever tired to create troops for all possible enemy variations? Or needed to form random encounter with 1-4 enemies from this enemy pool? This plugin will save you from creating thousands of troops! OcRam_Time_System will add highly customizable Time System to your RMMZ -projects. Includes map/menu clocks, dynamic seasons, months, weekdays and much more! OcRam_Weather_System will add highly customizable Weather System to your RMMZ -projects. Includes weather pools, enchanced RMMZ weathers integration to Time System (not required) and much more! OcRam_Movement will enable diagonal and pseudo-pixel movement for you RMMZ -project! Supports all default input devices: gamepad, mouse/touch and keyboard! OcRam_Events allows you to streamline your eventing by creating event bases! Only 1 place to make changes globally! Or need to spawn events (like loot chests, projectiles etc...)? Autofill speaker name and face with emotions? And much more! OcRam_Followers Actor toggling with designated hotkey(s), commands to (re)locate followers, enable or disable followers follow (QoL for cutscenes)! Apply move routes, balloons and animations to any follower! Lost Vikings style puzzles (where you need to toggle characters) and MUCH MORE! OcRam_Audio will give possibility to play several BGS at the same time. Events may emmit also DYNAMIC sounds with desired radius and other parameters! Create example rivers, camp fires, beach etc... It's nice to hear the closer you are the louder you hear (also possibility to AUTO PAN!) OcRam_Lights will add light layer to your RMMZ -projects. Light sources comes with all possible colors (and can even rotate colors) and several types (flickering, pulsating, fire, normal, strobo, flash light etc...) ...Oh and events can have multiple light sources! OcRam_Layers display ultra fast parallax layers or dynamic scrolling/looping tiled layers (even in title/battle for fog, sandstorm etc... effects). This plugin also offers plugin commands to show, move, tint, rotate and erase pictures! OcRam_Title_Shuffler How cool would it be to show different locations from the game world in title screen?! OcRam_Layers and OcRam_Weather_System is highly recommended to utilize full potential of this plugin! OcRam_Title_Info This plugin will enable you to show various information in title screen! Example: Your game version, Copyright info, Website and even allows JS eval! OcRam_Indicators OcRam_Labels has evolved to OcRam_Indicators and swallowed also OcRam_Messages (as known in MV) in the process! This plugin also provides some extra options for player to choose if labels, messages and/or indicators are shown! (Options can be hidden with plugin parameter) OcRam_Passages this is must have if your game has several floor levels (bridges, cliffs etc..) and want to easily create in-depth effect. Easily prevent event interacting between different floor levels but it is also possible allow interacting for desired events at any level. Even AUTOTILES can be drawn above player! OcRam_NPC_Scheduler Ever wanted to create a town where townsfolk lives their life like going to market, pub and their job-/hangout places? But probably don't want to go out if there's storm or blizzard going on? OcRam_Star_Tile_Fix All who have used larger than 1 tile sprites, have propably strugled with star (*) tiles. This plugin will sort star tile z-index by y axis! No configurations needed - This is plug'n'play plugin! OcRam_Local_Coop This plugin allows up to 4 players to control their own party member! All players can interact with events, call menu and participate in battles. You may use this plugin to create some awesome coop dungeons (Lost Vikings style), which are also playable in single player mode with OcRam_Followers! OcRam_Map_Transfer Give map notetags to tell maps which map they are connected to. Make your transfers easier - especially if there are several connection points between maps! Includes also new type of transfer "Scroll" (Old school Zelda like)! OcRam_Credits This plugin adds new Credits scene to your RPG Maker project! Each category may have it's own background. Fallbacks to plugin default BG and after that fallback to previous scene bitmap snap (like default menu). OcRam_Misc This plugin should cover all those 'minor' things, that I thought won't need own dedicated plugin for it. Like features 'pixel perfect rendering', JS eval on items/states, CE on ma…

But I want to be Month Day, Year.

Thank you for the message,

You need to set light bg in order to any light sources to show up.

Put this command in "autorun" event and then call "Erase Event"

Thank you for the message,

Can't replicate this issue. Are you using any other plugins?

I have no other plugins active. no Script or plugin calls. Can I send you a github link?

Is this wrong thread because your project was for MV? And I don't have 'Core' -plugin for MV.

For some reason Array.remove polyfill fails.

Quick fix is to delete/comment following code block:
Code:
if (!this.remove) { this.prototype.remove = function (itm) { let i = this.indexOf(itm); this.splice(i, 1); return this; }; }
This is found around lines ~349 to 354

Awesome stuff, great to see you port your things over.

Out of curiosity, have you considered also implementing lightmaps and lightobjects in your light plugin?
(Lightmap being an image that is used as light overlay for the map, lightobject being an image that is attached to an object)

I'm asking because I've been looking for an MZ lighting plugin, but I've got an entire arsenal of custom-tailored light effect images I'd like to use. (I've been using Khas Lighting in MV for that reason)

I have considered those + WebGL + real-time shadows, but first things first =)

Still in progress: OcRam_Movement, OcRam_Local_Coop, OcRam_Messages + other small plugins and I'm thinking about quest journal also... Then I'll focus on next gen Lights.

And thank you for the compliments.

Realtime shadows. :wub

They're gonna be tricky, though. I've spoken with a couple other devs who've also made lighting plugins (though not with images) for MZ and they've run up against the engine limitations. Doable, but hardware hungry and depends on how much variables you use to calculate the caster shadows.

But if you can manage it, that'd be incredible. :D

Can you add another weather effect? I was thinking falling leaves for autumn?
