ZTBS Battle Question

My question is how can I add graphical battle pics to the Zenith Tactical Battle System. What I mean is of you look at shining force, when you choose to attack or be attacked the screen switches to an animated battle.

How would I go about integrating this? Would I add another scene or call a window? or hard code it into the battle scripts?

One idea I had was to set up some variables to check which battle gfx to show when you attack or be attacked. If this is the route to go, then please let me know.

I'm working on this for the next version of the ZTBS, so you can either wait for it or see if someone will do it for you.

Basically what is required is that everytime an attack is dealt a new window will become active in which by a determined variable will match up the characters attacked to those about to appear in the cut scene.

I will try and get the new version out as soon as possible, but for now i'm preoccupied.
 
Well thats the idea that i had, I just wanted someone, or you, to confirm if I was on the right track. While I will wait for the next version, I still will give it a shot and then compare notes when it arrives.

thanks mac
