hey i need help with rpgmaker vx and selecting a enemy

[coldenhas]

ok well in my game you start off not knowing your name but after talking to your father in your basement you learn you name but afterwards when you try to go up stairs you're supposed to fight your first boss but when i try to set them as a conditional variable it doesn't have any enemys to be selected.  so what do i have to d to get an enemy to be allowed to be selected?

i also have a second question can you make it so you loose your first battle but continue the game (like golden sun if you ever played that game)

That must be a dangerous house; the guy gets amnesia while he was asleep, and the basement is rife with monsters.

If VX hasn't totally gutted the battle processing option, there should be a box you can check that says "continue if defeated" or something like that. VX isn't my strong suit, and I'm avoiding it because it sucks so bad.

So bad.

o ok. what would you recommend then?

If you're alright using VX, I say more power to you. It's not impossible to work with, and some prefer it over XP. Its controls are much simpler to use, at least, making it easier for entry-level game makers.

Going from your first post. Story aside it sounds like you have an event that appears to block the stairs, a monster in this case, which is only visible and able to fight if a switch has been toggled on. But then you go and confuse me by using the word selecting. At this point I think that you are already in a fight with the monster and can't select which one you want to fight. So which is it?

If you are indeed trying to get an event to appear and it is not appearing because of a switch. We will need some screenshots of the event that activates the monster event and the monster as well. What I mean is, if event "A" enables event "B" we'll need to see both event "A" and event "B". The actual event pages if they are light.

If all else fails you could produce a demonstration of your project and upload for someone to look at to provide more help. From this end though it's a little muddled on what you are trying to do.

Good luck with it coldenhas! :thumb:

Enemy appear is what you are using to start the fight? That's something used inside a battle. Not something used to get into a battle I don't think. You want battle processing which is on the third page on the left at the top instead.
