I don't know how to make animations in VX, but in XP you can create them in the database.

It's very similar, but there's two differences:

1)  You can only use one set of animation graphics.  (On the other hand, it is extremely simple to combine two sets of graphics with any paint program that can handle .png files.)

2)  In XP, the default allows both actors and monsters to have animations for skill use and for skill effects, which I consider a substantial improvement over VX.

actually i want soemthing like where the player goes up to the enemy and do a little atk sequence 
slash from left, right, up, down, then a finisher

...Okay.  Since that's not the default in VX, you might have made that a little more clear. 

Anyway, it's pretty easy to create something like that in XP.  There's even a way to do it without scripts, although it's hardly perfect.

This skill animation sequence is part of the SBS Tankentai Script.

The only way to do this in XP is with an battle script that allows it.
I have this one

Side Battle.txt

But is quite Hard to Configure new moves...

I'am converting the VX SBS Tankentai 2.99 to XP in a way that the confings works exactly the same way, so its possible to use skills moves made for VX (Like the Bubs' Custom Skill Animations that you mentioned), I just making small bug fixes.

The bad thing is that I making it completely in brazilian portuguese, and well... i'm not willing to translate it x] so...
And I've already tested the Bubs'custom skill and it worked perfectly juts with copy > paste.

 

[brainsmoe]

guess you wont share it? i could read and translate myself

@brainsmoe
i've just posted it on an brazillian forum, you can get it there.

If you translate you can post it, but don't forget the credits to me and the VX version author. ;D
