Possible or Impossible? For RMXP

[Amber Dragon]

I'm using rpg maker XP and i've reached a point in creating my game that.. If these things are impossible, i'll either have to change huge parts of my story, or abandon the game for a different medium.

Please reply stating if these are impossible, or if they are possible, please assist me in making them possible, or link me to a site that may have a script already made.


1. Making specific characters (actors or monsters) COMPLETELY immune to ALL magic
2. Making specific characters (actors or monsters) reflect magic
3. Making certain spells target ALL monsters AND players. (think "flare" in final fantasy 6)
4. Making two characters take damage from one spell (ie: if one spell hits one character, they both take damage.)
5. Make a spell only damage certain types of monsters, and do no damage to other monsters

1. As long as the actors MDEF is higher than double the skills power, he will be immune.
The strongest magic skill (as opposed to state & weapon skills) has a power of 220.
So, if the actors MDEF is higher than 440, he will be immune to the magic skills.
2. Possible, but would need scripting. I've seen this asked before, but am unsure if a script exists.
3. Possible. You might be able to do this with events. I'm sure it can be done with scripting.
4. Possible. Pretty sure this needs script as well
5. This can be done with elements. If you notice the default elements there are a few called "vs Monster Type"
So, if a skill is aligned with "vs Undead", and a specific monster has a weakness (Element Efficiency A or B) he will be damaged more.
If the enemy has a strength (Element Efficiency D, E, F) he will be damaged less. E = 0% meaning no damage. F = -100% meaning
a spell or weapon of that alignment will actually heal him instead of damaging him

oh wow, thanks. looks like i was backwards on the last point there. and i know someone who's good at programing languages, i hope he knows something about scripting.

but in case he doesn't, do youknow of any scripts that may contain what i need? or know of a guide that will help me with that? or know of someone who might be interested in being hiered on as a scripter? (for real money)


but anyways, this is really great, i was worried i'd have to abandon my game for a different medium.
