Heart-Pumping Action!

[Necrile]

This should be actually a simple script, but can some one make it so when one character's hp falls below 10% it plays a heartbeat? Also...if you could find a heartbeat sfx, thatd be great! Thanks in advance!

Search "Heartbeat wavs"

Sound-effect wise.... Check out A1 FREE SOUND EFFECTS A Heartbeat effect and a heartbeat monitor sound effect will be found there. Love that word... FREE!

 

[$t3v0]

No such thing as FREE. Somewhere down the line...to some extent...you're paying for it.

 

[DerVVulfman]

Lifted from their website:

Non Profit / Personal Use: Everyone can download and use the sound effects for FREE... any School, Church, Student, Teacher or Non Profit Corporation can use the sounds for free in any Home, Event or Classroom Project.

Commercial Use: Any Commercial use of the Sound Effects requires permission from A1 Free Sound Effects. We will grant you the right to use any of the sound effects with any purchase of Our Commercial CD.

To download it, you pay for your internet. Or someone does, at least. Thus not free (as Stevo meant).

Precisely what Prexus said.

There's also Hollywood Edge. Though the last time I got a 'heartbeat' file from them, it was pathetically low in volume.

These MP3 samples are provided free of charge and offer just a brief taste of what is available in the Hollywood Edge libraries.

... um... 'Royalty' free. http://www.dubealex.com/asylum/style_em ... n_wink.gif[/IMG]

Thanks! I found a really good heartbeat FX, so can anyone supply me with a script?

 

[$t3v0]

couldn't you just do it with conditional branches?

class Scene_Battle
  alias low_health_se_play_update_phase4_step5 update_phase4_step5
  def update_phase4_step5
    low_health_se_play_update_phase4_step5
    for target  in @target_battlers
      if target.is_a?(Game_Actor) and target.hp <= target.maxhp / 10
        $game_system.se_play(RPG::AudioFile.new(file, volume, pitch))
      end
    end
  end
end

replace file with the filename (in "")
volume is the volume
pitch is the pitch

you may leave out volume and pitch if you want

untested but it should work

Sorry, to say, but i got the error on line 7..maybe its because i changed it to bgs? heres what line 7 currently is: $game_system.bgs_play(RPG::AudioFile.new(medical006, 100, 50))

 

[Trickster]

replace file with the filename (in "")

$game_system.bgs_play(RPG::AudioFile.new("medical00 6", 100, 50))

 

[DerVVulfman]

Um, is your filename medical00 or medical00 6. You have a space in there.

Removed rest due to error.

Edit: Typed as he posted... :D

 

[Necrile]

Thanks, trickster! Well...now there arent errors, but its not playing my heartbeat at 10%...any ideas?

class Game_Party
  def all_healthy?
    for actor in @actors
      return false if actor.hp <= actor.maxhp / 10
    end
    return true
  end
end

class Scene_Battle
  alias low_health_se_play_update_phase4_step5 update_phase4_step5
  def update_phase4_step5
    low_health_se_play_update_phase4_step5
    if $game_party.all_healthy?
      if $game_system.playing_bgs.name == FILENAME
        Audio.bgs_stop
      end
    else
      if $game_system.playing_bgs.name != FILENAME
        $game_system.bgs_play(RPG::AudioFile.new(file, volume, pitch))
      end
    end
  end
end

also replace FILENAME with the bgs sound effect you are playing

 

[Necrile]

Im getting an error on line 15 saying undefined method "name".
here is what is on that line:
if $game_system.playing_bgs.name == "medical006"

 

[Trickster]

Ok, heres a fixed version

class Game_Party
  def all_healthy?
    for actor in @actors
      return false if actor.hp <= actor.maxhp / 10
    end
    return true
  end
end

class Scene_Battle
  alias low_health_se_play_update_phase4_step5 update_phase4_step5
  def update_phase4_step5
    low_health_se_play_update_phase4_step5
    if $game_party.all_healthy?
      if $game_system.playing_bgs != nil and $game_system.playing_bgs.name == FILENAME
        Audio.bgs_stop
      end
    else
      if $game_system.blaying_bgs == nil or $game_system.playing_bgs.name != FILENAME
        $game_system.bgs_play(RPG::AudioFile.new(file, volume, pitch))
      end
    end
  end
end

Ok, now it works...just one problem...the battle music is too loud. One last request. Can you make it so when heart beat is playing, to put the Battle BGM to 50%? If you dont want to, i understand.
