#rpg maker help

[g0blinwitch]

Okay I'm kind of at the end of my rope. I've been trying to make it so that when the npc lands on the player it switches to a "landing" sprite, but it does this instead:

I've asked other people, but they've been unable to help. The coding for the event will be under the cut, but if anyone can help it would be much appreciated

where the event is

pages 1,2, and 3

Does anyone know how to make lil pixel walking sprites for characters for RPG Maker? And if so could i please request a tutorial 👀 asking for reasons....

I think I’m starting to realize that the current project I’m working on is going to be stupidly hard to do entirely alone. Or, at least, that it is going to take a good, long while. That doesn’t mean I’m not still going to try making it, I just might be stuck doing a lot of test and side projects that are way smaller scale before I can get to “long super polished rpg horror game”.

Anyway— if anyone has any resources for the engines 2003, XP, or VX Ace, that would be very helpful. I have found a video on the coding language Ruby recently, but besides that a lot of the specific questions I’ve been having end up either not on the forums or unanswered on the forums. I’m also probably turning to asking on Reddit, even if it’s a little awkward.

*looking at isat ss discord* my power of being silly got out of control

or how I tried understanding rpg maker basics by literally trying to do one (1) thing I really wanted to see ever since seeing Loop unused sprites lying on wiki months ago

the reason I mentioned isat ss discord was simply bc guys were the first people who saw me trying to draw close to pixel sprite face sprite for Loop to,,, do something at some point just to see how it works

and nope I'm not making this into anything, but I really like the fact that I managed to do this

(now with video post edited into this sentence!)

i like how rpg maker is mostly known for producing games that aren't rpg's

Default Actions

Not sure how comprehensible this will be, but hopefully it helps

im not great with rm2k3 so this is pretty unoptimised ):

Things needed:

Default animation (sitting in this case)

Default Switch (called [USE]None in this tutorial)

Variable for the button input (called Use Effect in this tutorial)

If the action is toggled, you will also need:

Toggle Switch (called Is Sitting in this tutorial)

Sprites in the final state of the action (sitting and standing in this case)

This will be a common event with a parallel process trigger and no condition switch

Sprites needed (visual demo):

Sitting (Called: “Full Yoshika Sheet Three alt, 7”):

(this is the most space efficient way of fitting them, at first i had left and right directions separately)

Standing (Called: “Full Yoshika Sheet, 1”):

~~~~~~

First, you'll need to set up key input processing for the key you'll use for the action:

(this is found on page three)

You will need a conditional branch for when the input variable is pressed (in this case it's the 1 button, so the variable will be equal to 11)

(This branch doesn't need an else statement)

Inside this branch, you will need another conditional branch to check if the Default Switch is on

(This branch also doesn't need an else statement)

Inside this branch (sorry there are so many nested branches T-T) you will need a conditional branch for the player's direction (unless the direction doesn't matter)

(This branch also doesn't need an else statement)

The final nested branch is for toggle effects and it checks if the toggle switch is off

(This branch does need an else statement)

For sitting down, you need to:

Set move route to Wait (I did 3x)

Hide player character

Change player sprite to sitting (or whatever your default is)

Show animation

Unhide player character

Set move route to Wait (repeat) (So the player can't move while sitting)

Set the input variable back to 0

Turn on the Toggle Switch

What it should look like:

The else section is used for standing up, and you need to:

Set move route to Wait (I did 3x)

Hide player character

Change player sprite to standing

Show animation

Unhide Player character

Set input variable back to 0

Turn Toggle Switch off

What it should look like:

You need to copy/paste this for each of the directions (don't accidentally paste it into the previous direction, it won't break the code or cause an error, but it'll not work for that direction)

~~~~~~

And then you're done :D

Hopefully it was understandable :3
