    awww I'll wait maybe someone that an expert with this can do this for me : )
    Or just practice. I've been trying to improve with the Action Sequence Editor tool that Yanfly features on their website because of how easy it is to work with.

    Link to that editor:
    X http://actionsequence.cf/

    It seems the tool is down, taken over by a scam download page. Don't go.
  2. so how do i have actor walk over to a party member o.o?
  3. Good luck then. Sry that I couldn't help. I am also a newby in this xD. That throw friend action sequence was my 3rd attempt :D
  4. Hello! I'm trying to make a neat "ranged attack" action sequence, but I'm having trouble with one aspect of it.

    I want to make the user draw his/her weapon, line up their attack, hold the post for several frames, as if they're carefully lining up their shot, and then fire. The problem I'm having is, I can only seem to get the user to draw their bow, and then quickly fire an arrow.

    Basically, I want to hold the actor on this frame for a specified amount of time:

    Is this possible? Much appreciated!

    Ok, I'm sure there's a much cleaner way to do this, but I like the effect so I figured I'd share. This basically emulates (close enough, anyway) a typical Dragoon Jump from any of the Final Fantasy games.

    Here's the Jump effect:

    Spoiler
    <target action>
    camera focus: user
    zoom: 110%, 30
    wait for zoom
    move user: forward, 48, 12
    opacity not focus: 0, 20
    wait for opacity
    se: Wind10
    float user: 600%, 10
    wait for float
    opacity user: 0%, 5
    wait for opacity
    move user: target, front, 5
    wait for movement
    opacity user: 100%, 5
    wait for opacity
    float user: 0%, 10
    wait for float
    motion attack: user
    action animation
    shake screen: 3, 9, 10
    ani wait: 5
    action effect
    immortal: target, false
    Wait 30
    reset zoom: 10
    reset camera: 10
    jump user: 200%, 10
    move user: home, 5
    face user: forward
    wait for animation
    wait for movement
    </target action>

    <follow action>
    zoom: 100%, 60
    opacity not focus: 100%, 60
    wait for opacity

    </follow action>
    And as addition I also came up with a little multi-bounce for an AOE jump attack which I think is kind of fun:

    Spoiler
    <whole action>
    camera focus: user
    zoom: 110%, 30
    wait for zoom
    move user: forward, 48, 12
    se: Wind10
    float user: 600%, 10
    wait for float
    opacity user: 0%, 5
    wait for opacity
    move user: targets, back, 5
    wait for movement
    opacity user: 100%, 5
    wait for opacity
    float user: 0%, 10
    wait for float
    action animation
    ani wait: 5
    shake screen: 3, 9, 30
    jump user: 200%, 10
    move user: targets, front center, 5
    wait for movement
    face user: target
    motion attack: user
    action animation
    ani wait: 5
    jump user: 200%, 10
    move user: targets, front head, 5
    wait for movement
    face user: target
    motion attack: user
    action animation
    ani wait: 5
    action effect
    immortal: target, false
    Wait 30
    reset zoom: 10
    reset camera: 10
    jump user: 200%, 10
    move user: home, 5
    face user: forward
    wait for animation
    wait for movement
    </whole action>

    <follow action>
    zoom: 100%, 60
    opacity not focus: 100%, 60
    wait for opacity

    </follow action>
    Like I said, I'm sure someone can come up with a much cleaner and shinier way to get this done as this is a Work in Progress, but I love this thread so much I wanted to contribute something.

    Hey man I just checked your Action Sequence and I think that this here is alittle bit more smooth. The character also turns face to the back of the enemy. Check this out I just changed your Action Sequence alittle.

    Hello. This looks like a simple 1 hit spell cast on the enemy? There are some misspelling parts and missing </> to close the starts. Here is your action sequence if it's still not posted by someone already enjoy ;)

    Is this possible? Much appreciated!

    I found this bit of code in Yanfly's Weapon Animation plugin:

    Code:
    Yanfly.WA.Sprite_Weapon_updateFrame = Sprite_Weapon.prototype.updateFrame;
    Sprite_Weapon.prototype.updateFrame = function() {
       if (this.isCustomGraphic()) {
         var w = Math.floor(this.bitmap.width / 3);
         var h = this.bitmap.height;
         var sx = this._pattern * w;
         var sy = 0;
         this.setFrame(sx, sy, w, h);
       } else {
         Yanfly.WA.Sprite_Weapon_updateFrame.call(this);
       }
    };
    
    Yanfly.WA.Sprite_Weapon_update = Sprite_Weapon.prototype.update;
    Sprite_Weapon.prototype.update = function() {
       Yanfly.WA.Sprite_Weapon_update.call(this);
       this.updateFrame();
    };

    It seems relevant to my question. Is there any way I could use something from this bit to override the frame cycle of a particular motion?
  9. Sorry to double post - but I wanted to share something, and I didn't think editing a post made two days ago would be the best way to do it!

    Regarding my previous question, Astfgl66 came up with an awesome solution, which can be » viewed in this thread «

    It allows you to essentially start and stop motions at will in an action sequence, which can give some really cool effects that weren't possible before.

    In my case, I initially wanted it to create a ranged action sequence where the user can draw their bow, and hold it out as a "bow creaking" sound plays, and then fire - but there seems to be a lot more that can be done with this, and some imagination.

    Here's a WIP of the ranged sequence. Note how the bow stays out as the sound effect plays...



    (Edit: Don't mind the placeholder FFXI music... :))
  10. Out of topic. Is this a place for requesting action sequences?

    Hmm, if it's okay; anyone could make a special visual sequence for critical hits? If a critical hit (ranged/magical/melee attack) is successfully landed, the camera will "focus" on the damage receiver.

    For example :


    The critical hit sequence sample is on 0:37-0:39

    Nice find bro! I've been looking for something like this for some of my skills.
  12. Hello. I'm having trouble with a Jump skill in my game. I've followed everything in Yanfly's tips & tricks video (HERE), and have all the right plugins. When I do a battle test, it actually seems to work perfectly at first. But after the actor has successfully jumped and landed once, if I then try to use the skill again, the actor does not ever land and the battle does not end, even if the enemies have all died. I just have to manually exit the test window.

    On top of that, all of my actors become suddenly able to target and attack ally actors with every attack when they weren't able to before the battle became stuck as never-ending. Any thoughts or suggestions on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.
  13. Hi, so I was trying to solve a problem where I wanted to execute custom code only once per ability use on multi-target abilities (something the skill core eval note tags don't seem to make allowances for) and since the solution involved the action sequence system, I figured I'd share it here.

    Note that this is (to use Yanfly terms) "lunatic mode" territory, so if you're not comfortable with javascript, this is probably useless for you.

    Code:
    <follow action>
    if (function(user){ yourFunctionHere.call(this, user); return true; }).call(this, user)
    </follow action>

    1. Replace yourFunctionHere with your own function
    2. Avoid having a colon anywhere in the function parameters because it trips up Yanfly's sequence-parsing regex and the whole thing will probably explode.

    So yeah, hopefully this is helpful to someone. ;)
  14. Hi, hopefully this is the right place to ask this question, but does anyone know how to activate Yanfly's In-Battle Status Window outside of using a party command? I'm currently using Lecode's LeTBS so that's not possible and I want to set it as a top-level actor command. Not sure where in the code I would have to make changes.

    Link to that editor:
    http://actionsequence.cf/
    It seems the website is down? any ideas where there is another place for it?
  16. Anyone know if it's possible to make the character stay in place after finishing the sequence, rather than moving back to starting position?

    If possible, I want my skill to follow up with chain commands from moghunter, without having to jump back to the start before continuing.
  17. I realise this has been asked before, but I've been scouring the internet for a solution and cannot for the life of me find one. So I'm hoping someone out there can help.

    Put simply:
    Enemy Attacks > Code snippet to change Home X/Y Positions > enemy moves to NEW home position and stays there until next attack.

    What I'm looking for is a more dynamic battle system that gets the player thinking a little bit more. With the combination of Yanfly's AoE plugin, I want the player to have to think about where they are going to use their skills since the enemy keeps moving to a new position after each turn. Granted I COULD just have the enemy troops set up to be out of range of each other to make for a more difficult time hitting multiple targets with AoE Skills(Which makes up for 99% of my skills), but I think having the enemies reposition themselves mid-battle would make for a more interesting battle experience all round.

    If this requires an additional Plugin to achieve, then hit me up with a message, at this point I'm willing to commission someone. As long as I can then share it with the community after, I'm happy!
  18. Hey guys! Drifty from Driftwood Gaming and I just wrapped up an awesome action sequence game jam and as a result we have a sizable action sequence text file to share with everyone!!! It may be updated in the future so make sure to check it out from time to time to see if it has grown
    : D
    You can find it all right here, we both hope you are able to use them in your games and find this helpful. All code included is under the creative commons license with attribution (remember to credit the amazing people who contributed to this compilation document when you use their work, their names are listed with their action sequences in the text file. :) )

  19. Hi RPG maker forums! Yanfly's site linked me here for help on the Turn Order Display plugin. But I think my question is rather simple. When selecting the color values for the border and background color what number corresponds to what color? can I use the ##### web ID formula? Text would work too right, but I need to do two shades of the same color for would adding the words 'Light' or 'Dark' before the color effect it?
