[VX] Changing Maximum Level

[tofurkey]

Just wondering if there was a way to change max level either via script or something else. I'm looking to set my max level to 50, and I did find a script that Akin wrote for someone else, but from reading the script it seems that it simply renames all levels past X rather than stopping EXP gain completely. I'm assuming this wouldn't be too difficult to script, especially if it's just a stopping EXP gain. If there's any way to do this from the database, please let me know as well. Thanks!

Open up the Script Editor and go to the script labeled 'Game_Actor'.  Go to line 582, which should look like this:

    level = [[level, 99].min, 1].max

and change that to this:

    level = [[level, 50].min, 1].max

And there's probably a better way to do this, but I'm a scripting noob, so...
Go to line 523, which should look like this:

    @exp = [[exp, 9999999].min, 0].max

and replace the 9999999 bit with whatever the total experience need to reach level 50 is, so by default:

    @exp = [[exp, 1413646].min, 0].max

That will prevent all characters from reaching more than 1413646 experience, so if your characters level up at different rates, it's not really logical.  Unfortunately, I can't think of another way to do it, so sorry. :/

No, no, this is all that I was looking for. Thanks much. I'm not at my VX computer atm to see if it works out, but this doesn't seem like it would be very problematic.

Can't you change it from the database?

doesn't vx have that feature?

Nope.  There's the inital level and experience curve options, but no max. level. :/
