RPGM Coming of Age [v3.5] [Crazybat]

[Crazybat]

It is built into the maker? Never even looked for that... Been just procrastinating lately... Converting vx to mv like that would make it much simpler to convert to renpy (for me at least)

It came with MV in the form of a dlc script.

I actually found a script somewhere on the internet, but that gave errors halfway and crashed and didn't covert everything.
So I was looking for another script till a found a post somewhere there was a script included with MZ (made by shaz) that did the same. That one worked for me and didn't crash. So it's kinda funny it has already been on one of my drive the whole time.



There are actually two it seems.

Dear producer, hello, I like your game very much. I have been playing it from the version starting with 2 until now. I would like to give you some friendly suggestions. Are you considering releasing a new work? Please don't misunderstand me. I just think that the completion of this work is already very high, and some inconveniences caused by the backward production tools make it very inconvenient to play [I still cannot use the fast-forward function, it crashes as soon as I use it]. I have played many games of this type, but in terms of gameplay and richness, your work and [Succulence] are the insurmountable mountains of this type of game. It can be seen that you have put a lot of effort into it, so I sincerely suggest that you consider using new development tools to develop a new work, or a remake. This is a small suggestion from your fans.

What do you mean with a new work? A new game?
I have no plans for making a new game. I'm just trying to finish this one.

I've no clue why fast forward is crashing for you. I've never heard of that one before.
Other then the random can't draw bitmap crash.

I'm in the middle of attempting a conversion to RPGMAKER MZ which hopefully will get rid of that.

For some unknown reason, the game crashes instantly when I press [Ctrl]. This has been bothering me for several versions, which is why I asked if you would be updating to use a new engine.

ive faced this issue as well, other than that i came up with a silly idea for content that could be used to fit in somwhere. the guy who comes in the library asking for robbers bank book and new location which is the bank, you could put it in one of the empty buildings already set up. he would hilariously pull up to the bank where he meets the mc, she could be working there as an assistant, janitor, receptionist or secretary. and then hed rob the bank but he meets her and events happen.

Hi Guys just wanted to give an update on how attempting to convert the game to rpgmaker MZ is going.

So the first thing I needed to do is find replacement for functions that I used scripts for, so I can "convert" those function to work similar in MZ.

some of the most important scripts I used and found replacements for:

Spoiler: boring Scripts/Plugins talk

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

So far I've tested and "converted" the game to a point somwhere in week 3. (May's shame was around 69 )

Took a bit longer then I'd have liked, partly because I also made some "under the hood" code changes for certain events like the photo shoot and nurse events and a few others. Now that I don't have to worry about old save compatibility I wanted to clean the code up a bit and make it more consistent.


Made a lot of smaller changes/optimizations like no longer needing to "buy" the dress for the library job.
And some changes to May mother shower event. (added a few cg)

The goal is to try and keep these to a minimum tho, since it costs time which could have gone to the converting process.
I try to write down a list of things "to improve" so I can come back to them at a later point perhaps.

Also "wasted" plenty of time on debugging or simply trying to figure out where I left a certain piece of code that I created years ago.

So there's progress, but it feels kinda like a two steps forward one step backward progress sometimes.

Cool! thanks. I'll take a look next time my anime binging ends

- A word wrap script

Make sure the text gets automatically cut at the end and continues on the next line.
Without this you'll have to manual insert a break or the text just keep going off screen.

- Text skip. Fast forwards text mapped to a key. Although I find works pretty good/fast in MZ so it's a nice to have.

-A Questlog script

This was was quite a struggle I think I tried 3. I struggled a lot with the 2nd script that I tried
Just leaning out how to update objective/track them etc cost me quite some time.

At one point I couldn't even get it to work for 1 quest, since It kept trowing an error
and after a few hours wasted and failing to figure out what the problem was left me frustrated and without a working quest log.

I just went looking for an another Questlog script. I found one that was easy to work with, but still quite tedious to configure due to the plugin (scripts) structure in MZ.

Lots of clicking.. where in the rpgmaker vx ace script is was just a matter of having a properly formatted piece of text that you can copy/paste and adjust.

Also the code to call the quest log is all over the place so that need to be changed in every event which calls the quest log


- A conditional choices script.

This is a very useful script which I use to "hide" certain choices until certain conditions are met.


Another script that I was looking into and could be veru interesting is an ingame phone menu.

This was the last script that I added for testing and unfortunately there seems to be conflict with the conditional choices script.
So I've disabled it for now and might need to look for another condition choices script/plugin that doesn't conflict.

Learning how to use all the new plugins/script can be quite time consuming.
[/SPOILER]

If you were talking about MV I'd have some ideas but MZ... Never messed with it.

Text Skipping is actually normal in MV by holding the button down rather than pressing. YEP allows wrapping have no clue if it or my other thoughts are made for MZ

Yeah I found some plugins for MZ for those functions. Seems to be working for now, expect for a little conflict between the conditional choices script and some phone script that looked cool.

Bro how to unlock the subway free roam quest?

Bro how to unlock the subway free roam quest?

If you're asking you're simple not far enough in the game yet. It's will be available almost near the end of the subway events.
Out of the top of my head you'll need to see the "toy's" (stage3.3.x) variants at least a few times. (You can check the recollection room how far you've progressed.

Getting constant crashes at the exposure scene on the lifeguard tower after reaching 30 exposure. Tried reloading several times, but happens every time :/


*edit: looks like it doesn't happen anymore after starting the lifeguard job.

Never seen that one before. Do you have a save game just before this happens? If so could you upload it, so I can take a look?
Just zip it and attach it.

 

[Neliel95]

This should be the save file.

 

[Crazybat]

This should be the save file.

Ok I checked it out it indeed crashes. I did some investigating and it seems you're on a branch of the event where you haven't worked as a lifeguard yet. That's very rare and likely the cause no one reported this before.

It was just a small type in an icon.. I fixed it. Just extract (and overwrite) this file into the data directory.

I confirm. The game crashes at this point. Can you post the fixed file somewhere else? I can't access the site where you posted it.
