Have you tried Ratime's Dynamic Shadows script? It works wonders for creating shadow effects once you get the hang of it.

Wouldn't it be less hellish to just take the sprite dj provided and add it to every sprite that would need it? :|

Ouch... brain hurts...
Not saying I'd do it.... too much right now... Insight instead.
Both Selwyn (I think) and Linkin_T wrote some bitmap drawing tools, that include geometric shapes... ovals... transparancies... etc. Due to the 'hack', only one remains, but it could help:
If... with this collection of drawing systems... you could create those same 'ovals' under each sprite (in the Sprite_Character class?). Possibly in def update right here:
Just remember that you may want it to be semi-transparent. But with over-populated areas... risk of lag.

@cw = bitmap.width / 4
@ch = bitmap.height / 4
self.ox = @cw / 2
self.oy = @ch
endJust remember that you may want it to be semi-transparent. But with over-populated areas... risk of lag.
If that adds a solid colour shadow, it's not what I'm looking for. I'm looking for a script to place the charaset under the player, and events that have
in them, so I can place softer shadows under them while leaving them on index colour. If we added the soft shadows to all the charasets, they would become much to large in filesize.
Code:
