RPG Maker XP Combat System

[Latros]

Just wondering if a Link To The Past (Zelda) style combat system would be viable for RPG Maker XP?

If not, crap.

If so, 1) Is there one existing that would be relatively simple (I have only basic programming knowledge) to implement into my personal game?
2) If there isn't one existing, would it be very hard to make my own?

Some of us hate random battles like the plague <3

Swing your sword, if it makes contact with the enemy sprite / object, it would damage / break it.

Projectile magic that could damage foes, projective arrows, same deal.

As well as NPCs having all of those things.

This is very possible.

I'm not so sure about NPCs, but all you have to do is search for an action battle system or an ABS.
Hmmm... XAS might be too hard for you - I don't know of the other ones. Blizzard or Mr. Mo's maybe? O.oa I'd search for one of those.

I've seen some done with events, but I'm sure that's pretty hard.

P.S. I hate random battles as well. ^_^

Good luck!

Okay I checked those out, going to see what I can fool around with...

I LOVE XAS but its in a different language!! Is there an english version anywhere?

Try blizzard ABS, it's far superior to XAS in all ways.

You can find blizz abs here:

Hey check out my site

You'll find a translated version there along with a PDF with walkthroughs and an explanation of how the system works and how to go about making new stuff

I have to disagree on you with that one. If your looking for a zelda game, go with XAS, if your looking for a strait up Action RPG, either is good. Blizz Abs supports multiple heroes while XAS focuses on one hero and does it well.

Hi guys, I just looked at this thread and downloaded the XAS system. How do I implement it into my game? Do I just work on from the file given or do I hae to just copy/paste every script?
Thanks

The instructions are there on the site: http://xasabs.wordpress.com/installation/

You can do either. Start with the demo & build your game, or copy the scripts to an existing project.

Be Well
