Zoom chara
- Thread starter From
- Start date
If Mode-7 is not what you're looking for, then you'd need to describe what else you would like to happen... if you just zoom the character at the top few rows, it'll look extremely off in terms of perspective, both because the character scales for no apparent reason, as well as because the tiles stay the same.
Basically the script should work like this:

and when the character moves toward the top of the screen, becomes smaller:

I do not know if the Mode 7 works in this way...
I made this change on XP, but I can not VX...
Thanks Blue for your reply ^^

Mode-7 works in a way that additionally scales the tiles, meaning characters AND tiles will be in the correct perspective... like this:
(think of the palmtrees as characters, as both are events)
There's a few very good Mode-7 scripts out there that work like a charm... and it would definately look more realistic than just scaling the character, I'd think.
Of course, it's up to you in the end... I can try to put something together if you want (as that shouldn't be too hard), however you need to tell me if you want the character to scale gradually or after a certain distance... (I really can't quite imagine what you want to do with it, so I'm having a bit of a problem seeing the details here... ^^ )

If you want I have one with pixel movement but it's not super easy to configure :
Code:
class Game_Map
Maps_Depth = {}
# To add depth to a map, you must write below :
# Maps_Depth[id] = [max, min, factor, origin, default]
# id => id of the map
# max => The maximum zoom is used to limit the increase of the characters. (in %, 1 = 100%)
# min => The minimum zoom is used to limit the decrease of the characters. (in %)
# factor => The zoom factor is the value which the character zoom will be increased by when he moves of one tile verticaly. (in %)
# origin => The origin of the zoom is the location on the map where the characters will have their default zoom. (in % from the bottom)
# Below the origin the zoom increase, over it decrease.
# default => The default zoom. (in %)
#
# Example :
# Maps_Depth[1] = [2, 0.2, 0.05, 0, 1]
