Pre-made (Yanfly's) Action Sequence Sharing and Discussions

@KingKraken Uhm i might check for it but i need more infos, could you post the code you used to flip chars and battlers sides along with a small video of the issue?
Also, do you use YF's visual state effects?

Yeah, I have the Visual State Effect pluggin. I started using it hoping it would have a positioning fix, but haven't found one. As far as what I used to flip the battlers, I'm using Yanflys Battle Engine Core, and set the sideview actors to

• Home X: screenWidth - 16 - (maxSize + 2) * 105 + index * -82
  
• Home Y: screenHeight - statusHeight - maxSize * 50 + (index+1) * 45 - 32
  

Here's a video of it: http://kingkaijuice.tumblr.com/private/150269349655/tumblr_odcpf3quFB1qj4e56 you can see the defense down debuf and the "disarm" one pop in every once in awhile, only to shoot to the left.

Hi everyone, i got a few ideas for the action sequences of tiamat that The Amazing Yanfly made a video about.


I did not find any thread on Tiamat`s skills and sequences, so i tried to copy them from what i saw in Yanfly`s Tiamat video that he made with the animated battler from the Great  Ækashics.


I hope it`s okey taht i post my  sugestions here, If anyone is interested :

So Yanfly just patched the Side view enemies plugin and that fixed the issue for me! Thanks for the interest!

Is it possible to ONLY craft weapons without seing Items or armor in the window?
Example I wnat to make cooking - only a window wiht cooking recipies?
I got hammer and anvil- I wnat to only make armor.

Uhh i suppose this is the wrong topic to ask such a question XD
Still, have you been using this plugin? http://yanfly.moe/2016/01/15/yep-58-item-synthesis/


Because it might suit your case.


That's good news! ;)

Hey all, I'm back again with another issue! So I'm trying to use the action sequence used in Yanflys Gamble Strike Tips and Tricks as seen here: http://yanfly.moe/2016/07/25/tips-tricks-gamble-strike-rpg-maker-mv/

And it's just not working for me. I pretty much just copy+pasted the code he uses for an example and copied the skill specs as he has them in the video. Yet, the only thing that will happen is that initial whole action, that charges the skill. But after that, nothing happens whether it's a miss or hit. Any insight? Could it possible placement of my plugin orders?

Edit: fixed it with an hours worth of back tracking!

I have the same problem like this.


I made few skills where it probably work, but sometimes the maker ignore the if condition.

My actor missed the enemy but the animation etc apears anyway! :((

I'm having a quite complex problem:

There's a character which uses a series of skills called as "elemental coats", which grants non stackable elemental resistance states.


There's also a skill called "Psychic Slash", which originally deals neutral damage.


There's even also another skill called "Elemental Sharpening", that affects the Psychic Slash, in the following manner:
 - Instead of dealing one damage instance, the skill deals two damage instances: a neutral damage one, and an elemental damage.


 - The "Elemental Sharpening" state is removed after the the Psychic Slash.


With this (poor) contextualization, here's the code for the Psychic Slash:


<damage formula>
var skilldamage = 80
var basevalue = a.mat
if (a.isStateAffected(81) && a.isStateAffected(82))
{
skilldamage *= 0.5
}
value = ((1 + (a.level * 0.08))*skilldamage)*(basevalue/b.def);
</damage formula>

<setup action>

end

animation 155: target

end
if (user.isStateAffected(74) || user.isStateAffected(79))
animation 156: target
force element: 7
end
if (user.isStateAffected(75) || user.isStateAffected(80))
animation 157: target
force element: 8
end
wait: 5
action effect
wait for animation

end
</target action>

<follow action>
remove state 82: user
</follow action>

<finish action>
clear battle log
immortal: targets, false
perform finish
wait: 30
</finish action>


Problem is: The first "if" "if (user.isStateAffected(82))" is being completely ignored, but i can't find why,

Okay so upon asking Yanfly himself he suggested I come here and ask:


I'm sure you all have seen this before: where the actor more or less punts the foe off screen, leaps after them(going off-screen)the scene fades out, fades back in, and reveals the monster(s) in a seemingly different location followed by the actor(s) leaping on screen and them performing a series of attacks which ends with them punting the monster to the right(sending them offscreen again) and then the actor jumps off screen, the screen fades out once again and fades in once more with the party member flying back to their default position followed shortly by the monster bouncing back into theirs.


I'd just be happy with a simple "actor kicks them off screen, followed by the actor leaping off screen after them along with the scene change" action sequence as long as you can tell me how to edit it so I can make the actor send them flying in whatever direction i choose,change the scene, and add extra animations/actor movements in between these kicks. I've looked and looked and looked and looked and looked, but I've found NOTHING that tells me how to accomplish this.


If you could post it here and tag me so I know you're talking to me I'd be forever in this thread's debt.


*Prepares to wait for an etnernity* 

@deathsia It's quite complex to explain within a forum post, but Vibrato had a series of video that teach how to do that (if you can get past his Google-Translate English)

Well, I don't have exactly that, but I have the Vibrato tutorial to make it yourself if that helps? Part 3 is in the spoiler below!

The problem with this video is that he "tells you what he did" not "how he did it"! Telling us how he did it would be posting the full action sequence. What really ticks me off about this guy is that he thinks that his action sequence is "his own" when its NOT his and he has no right to hide it, its Yanfly's engine he's using. Yet he doesn't even show it to us and don't even tell me that those fragments of the whole action sequence for a grand total of 2 two seconds(not even the complete sequence) is enough to duplicate the effect becuaseits not.


He thinks that becuase he managed to make a cool sequence that everyone wants that it makes him special enough to have the right to hide it and horde the information on how to do it. This is why I asked if someone could post the full action sequence becuase I KNEW someone would link this guy instead of being able to provide it.


Or if its much bigger than just the action sequence, he should post a demo with just the action sequence, states, and sample skills that use them. We don't need to have the graphics, sounds, or music.


*continues to wait for an eternity... *

Hey there guys! Im wondering if there's a way to change the damage formula mid-sequence. For example, I have a three-hit skill and the last one acts as a finisher and deals more damage. Im pretty sure there is some code somewhere that can let me do so. Thanks.

@deathsia so you want somebody to spoonfeed you despite how to do what you wanted to do was already explained in the video? 

I've been having trouble with animation mirroring: how do you set up a state to mirror on actors (it uses text so it displays normally on enemies, but when used on actors its reversed and weird).


<Custom Apply Effect>
target.startAnimation(59);
</Custom Apply Effect>
<Custom Remove Effect>
target.startAnimation(59);
</Custom Remove Effect>


This is what I have for the application.

You imply that I'm trying to be lazy which is hilarious given the amount of time,effort,and money I've invested in my game which grand totals to nearly 3yrs. As for the video, I'm assuming you're talking about the japanese he has in the video which probaly explains it ten times more clearly than his "google translate" which is hard as hell to understand but I don't speak Japanese. PLUS, its not spoonfeeding, its sharing your action sequence for the benifit of others who may not be as savy with the code as they are.


Not all of us are C++,Javascript, and <insert X programer skill here> experts who can program an OS if we wanted to. :/


So if you aren't willing to help me out, don't attempt to discredit me or attempt to disuade people from helping me.


Thank you. 

Have you thought of inputting what he actually input in the note box? As far as I recall, those codes in the notebox aren't google translate (I hope we're looking at the same video). I'm sorry but that's just how I see it, every time you posted and you whined about no one willing to help you do action sequence like his. 


You see, I really want to make a game like Megaman Legends, but you don't see me knocking Kenji Inafune's door asking for his source code. 

Is the text part of the animation?


Animations are 'reversed' when used on actors from enemies since its coming from the other side (left to right) where when an actor uses it on an enemy its normal (right to left). When you make an animation its assumed to be used on an enemy (right to left). So when an effect is used on an actor it reverses the image. If the text is part of the image it will also be reversed.


What you could do if that's the case, is take the image, make a copy, reverse it and save the copy as a separate file. Make a copy of the skill and use the new reversed image for the new skill and assign that new skill to the enemy. That's a dirty method but would work. There's probably a code version to set the animation to forced to be mirrored or not mirrored, but I don't know what it is off the top of my head. 

Has anyone else come up with an issue involving the battle log not appearing? I did some checking and for whatever reason, it's Yanfly's Battle Engine Core that's the cause of it.
 


Everything is set to True. I don't see the skills used text or any of the text for the states in battle at all.

One thing to make note of, is that I have my player characters and enemies on opposite sides than the default. Doing this has caused issues for me before(all of which were fixed with updates to the plugin). Is it possible that moving my actors to the left had somehow moved the battle log to the left as well?
