The Free Archives (Formerly Animations Archive)

hadecynn · 2016-01-19T09:49:48+0900

6/15/2020 Today we're happy to announce the revival and rebranding of the former Animations Archive. As many of you are aware, the free resources we've posted here have become hard to get a hold of over these years. To solve this issue, we've decided to put everything on itch.io where they'll be more permanently available and easier to manage. The Free Archives will be released periodically and will contain remastered versions of free assets released since 2016, experimental prototypes, and other assets crafted by Dreams Circle that do not fall into our flagship brands. These assets are designed for game production but can be used for anything as long as the Terms of Use are followed. Note that whereas the old Animations Archive releases were set to 20FPS, these remastered assets have all been made at 30 AND 60 FPS, so they're perfectly compatible with all of our paid assets (Animations Collection and Animations Select). Without further ado: The Free Archives Vol.1 by Dreams Circle dreams-circle.itch.io Enjoy!

● ARCHIVED · READ-ONLY

In the case of skills that target all how does the game know to use it on each enemy or to just use the animation once?

In the Animation window, under "Position", setting it to "Center", "Head", or "Feel" will cause the animation to play once per enemy, setting it to "Screen" will make it only play once. Note that this means you could have a screen-wide animation that only targets one enemy/ally.

Ah I see.

Good Morning RPG Maker Forums!

Today's release is one of my personal favorites so far (and not just because it took me the longest to make). There are only 2 component sheets, but in reality there are 4 separate parts. Due to the way the animation is split into two phases, the first half and the second half can already be used independently. I figured it would be better to leave them in the same sheet because you could then use the second slot in the Animation engine for a completely different sheet to make your own effects. I know that each component actually isn't just one special effect, but given how many layers there are in this animation, we'll start from here, and if people REALLY want each effect on its own, then I'll think about it.

You need to archive these or put them in a blog so that it's easier to find and install these lovely animations.

Hehe, the Flare animation looks like the animation for Flare from FF14. Awesome work!

This is breathtaking work! Thank you for sharing. Is it possible to do your take on a single meteor?

The effect is the easy part... Implementation in MV? Not so much...

This is amazing. Now I can make my crashing ship!

But yeah, I have to try and see if I can pull it off :)

Note that the version contained in the json file will not work on every screen resolution/enemy size. Chances are you'll need to adjust accordingly. Please don't ask me how to do it for your game.

I have no idea what the Animation.json is, but I will figure it out! Much thanks, hadecynn :)

It's in the data file. It contains all the data for the animations of the game.

This is some amazing work. Hate myself for not saying so when I found it a few days ago. Gotta give you credit where you deserve it.

If I might give an idea, perhaps some emblems that erupt upwards from ones feet, sort of like those pesky trap spells from The Elder Scrolls games.

My other idea would be sideview only but sending a flock of birds or a horde of bats at the target from a centralized point. Sort of like a druid might send his bird friends or a vampire his bat swarm at the enemy.
