XAS Action Rpg System (Secret Of Mana Styled)

[Link in Pink]

Oh yeah the Overdrive system is great. I think I might modify it a little to show different animations with the different characters. (if I can, I'm not much of a scripter =P)

 

[Dark-Kyo]

Hey Link in Pink is there a script that you can change the keys.
Like if you dont want to use the keyboard arrows.

 

[Link in Pink]

For that you might have to rewrite one of the default scripts, because XAS uses the default movement buttons (Up, Down, Left, Right.)

There might be a script out there that let's you tamper with the controls. I'm not sure if there is one, though.

 

[Dark-Kyo]

I think so to.

Hey, with the help of khmp and legancyblade I edited the system of XAS to make it so you can change the the tool that a weapon uses. This opens up alot of new possiblites such as Upgrades, Profiencies, Combos, and more. I copied Moghunters HERO EDITION and put the edit inside the battle field mode. Combo sword, and Bronze Sword Uper are the new weapons i put in, press the sign to upgrade the Bronze Sword Uper.

The edit is simply this:

Open your script editor, F11. Go into the script, "XRXS - XAS", rename WEP_ID_TOOL to this $weapon_tools. Then fly down to line 1941(or the line that says: weapon_tool_id = XAS_BA::WEP_ID_TOOL[weapon_id] ) change that line to this, weapon_tool_id = $weapon_tools[weapon_id]. Now to change a tool assigned to weapon do this:

# weapon_id - the id of the weapon you are trying to change.
# new_tool - the id of the tool to be used when the weapon is activated.
$weapon_tools[weapon_id] = new_tool

You can do that through an event if you want using "Script...".

quoted by KHMP

Also the upgrades aren't just damage, its speed, armor percing, hit rate, range all becuase it switches the tool of the weapon.

Wow Awesome man! I love the ADDS!

 

[Souloux]

Could someone translate the 2.0 version? or does it work the same way as the original?

Could someone translate the 2.0 version? or does it work the same way as the original?

Basically, yes. The main added feature is the Overdrive and charged Skills.

And kudos to you, Bullet Darkness! That's great!

 

[adelaidechoc]

XAS system is great! A bit harder to configure, and a lot harder to figure out what he/she is saying in v2.

But definitely worth it! :thumb:

 

[cairn]

once I have the time I'll translate it, it shouldn't be that hard,

 

[Link in Pink]

Xiderowg is an amazing scripter. I wish I could see a huge vault of all his scripts. O_O

 

[regi]

You can, they're all on the same site, 'cept the only problem is they're in Brazilian Portuguese  :tongue:

 

[legacyblade]

Ok everyone, I'm back, XD

First, I respond to StarGGundam2

Yeah I already know how to add things to the menu. How I have it, you can still have more than one person in the party, and switch between them at will. You can also choose places in which to call the changing the party, since you can switch between your active party and your "reserve members". Just not sure how to check if the next person in the party is dead or not, and how to see how many people you have in the party.

@Bullet_Darkness, dude I have to try this out. I'm glad you got it working.

@Regimos, yeah, that is annoying, but it dosen't make it unusable for english people. I don't speak any language but English, and a little Elvish, but I'm able to use the script without problems.

@everyone. I got a script that's very useful for XAS. Don't you hate that if you don't keep looking at your HP, you can die without knowing you're near death? Well with this one, you can have it play a sound, and flash the screen when you're low on health (you can turn off either screen flashing or sound). Just think to the Zelda games for an example.

hey, Bullet_Darkness. The file is unavailable, I suggest you upload it to sendspace.com, it's less of a hassle to dload from anyways

 

[Link in Pink]

Niiiice.

Say guys, is there any script out there that can add more frames to a Character Set without screwing up XAS?

 

[Star]

@ LiP

If you ever figure out how to show different Animations with Different characters with OVD system, let me know, I'd love to be able to do that with my characters.  I've already created an OVD for one of them, with it's own custom Animation

@ Legacyblade
The warning system is nice.  But it's something I don't want to use, since I find it incredibly annoying to hear that dinging sound while I was playing Zelda games like a Link to the Past.

@ Everyone. The V2.0 is totally rad! I love it, and I upgraded right away

lol "rad"! I love it XD

Well I found something that kind of works. It's a script by Gubid that makes only the actor's frames increase, while events stay the same. However the frames play slowly even though my character is running fast. Check it out:

class Game_Temp
  attr_accessor :new_frame_count

  alias more_frame_temp_init initialize

  def initialize
    more_frame_temp_init
    @new_frame_count = 4
  end
end

class Game_Character
  def update
    if jumping?
      update_jump
    elsif moving?
      update_move
    else
      update_stop
    end
    if @anime_count > 18 - @move_speed * 2
      if not @step_anime and @stop_count > 0
        @pattern = @original_pattern
      else
        if self.is_a?(Game_Event)
          @pattern = (@pattern + 1) % 4
        else
          @pattern = (@pattern + 1) % $game_temp.new_frame_count
        end
      end
      @anime_count = 0
    end
    if @wait_count > 0
      @wait_count -= 1
      return
    end
    if @move_route_forcing
      move_type_custom
      return
    end
    if @starting or lock?
      return
    end
    if @stop_count > (40 - @move_frequency * 2) * (6 - @move_frequency)
      case @move_type
      when 1
        move_type_random
      when 2
        move_type_toward_player
      when 3
        move_type_custom
      end
    end
  end
end

class Sprite_Character < RPG::Sprite
  def update
    super
    # If tile ID, file name, or hue are different from current ones
    if @tile_id != @character.tile_id or
       @character_name != @character.character_name or
       @character_hue != @character.character_hue
      # Remember tile ID, file name, and hue
      @tile_id = @character.tile_id
      @character_name = @character.character_name
      @character_hue = @character.character_hue
      # If tile ID value is valid
      if @tile_id >= 384
        self.bitmap = RPG::Cache.tile($game_map.tileset_name,
          @tile_id, @character.character_hue)
        self.src_rect.set(0, 0, 32, 32)
        self.ox = 16
        self.oy = 32
      # If tile ID value is invalid
      else
        self.bitmap = RPG::Cache.character(@character.character_name,
          @character.character_hue)
        if @character.is_a?(Game_Event)
          @cw = bitmap.width / 4
        else
          @cw = bitmap.width / $game_temp.new_frame_count
        end
        @ch = bitmap.height / 4
        self.ox = @cw / 2
        self.oy = @ch
      end
    end
    # Set visible situation
    self.visible = (not @character.transparent)
    # If graphic is character
    if @tile_id == 0
      # Set rectangular transfer
      sx = @character.pattern * @cw
      sy = (@character.direction - 2) / 2 * @ch
      self.src_rect.set(sx, sy, @cw, @ch)
    end
    # Set sprite coordinates
    self.x = @character.screen_x
    self.y = @character.screen_y
    self.z = @character.screen_z(@ch)
    # Set opacity level, blend method, and bush depth
    self.opacity = @character.opacity
    self.blend_type = @character.blend_type
    self.bush_depth = @character.bush_depth
    # Animation
    if @character.animation_id != 0
      animation = $data_animations[@character.animation_id]
      animation(animation, true)
      @character.animation_id = 0
    end
  end
end

class Interpreter
  def upgrade_frames
    $game_temp.new_frame_count = 6
  end

  def downgrade_frames
    $game_temp.new_frame_count = 4
  end
end

At the beginning replace the "4" with the number of frames for your character.

If someone can fix the slow-playing fame situation, you'll be my hero.

EDIT: Never mind I figured it out! Simply find the line that says:

if @anime_count > 18 - @move_speed * 2

And replace the "2" with how fast you want the frames to go!

Good find!

Thanks, dloading now!  :smile:

-edit

That air slash skill is kind of odd...the slash stays in place for awhile after you attack, XD. But that "combo sword" gives me an idea. I haven't even looked at the code, but would it be possible to use a different attack charset for each swing, and have it hold the end of each pose for a certain time before changing back to the normal sprite and reseting the "combo counter"? If you don't understand what I mean, think of how link attacks in the newer zelda games, or the attack combo system in kingdom hearts. That would make this system woop!

 

[Bullet_Darkness]

I haven't played zelda or kindom hearts in awhile(too much 'no more heros') so i don't really know what you mean but, the different sprite for each swing is possible, all i am doing is switching the tool of the weapon every time you attack, and puting a common event which after a second puts the weapon tool back to the original. So all you have to do for switching the animation for each swing is chaing this line for ever tool that is in your combo.

  SELF_MOTIONS[action_id] = "to_change"

And if you want to know how i did the combo i just made each of the tool combo a paralell event that changes the weapon's tool, and switches on a combo paralell common event that waits 20 frames then puts the weapon's tool back to the first one.

The air slash is just for the fun of it, i was having fun bombarding the enemy with a lot of them so they were stuck
You can probably use what link in pink found to increase the speed of each swing.
