Author's Notes

I have been thinking about Fable 2 recently so I decided to write this.

Restrictions

Check the header of the script.

wow nice script doctor
but I don't have project in VXA
but it good for my collection

Thanks 

I'm utterly new to VXA/Scripting so am trying to avoid scripting too much until I understand it all more, but this one just sounded too cool to pass up, however I'm having trouble getting it to work.  I tried reading over all that, but I'm not a coder on the best of days so am pretty lost.
I read the wee mini-tut on the boards and have your script pasted in its own section, just above main and haven't changed anything, but I'm just not seeing the effects in game.

Is there something I'm supposed to be editing and have missed, or am I likely just being crap at scripting?

Cheers in advance, and kudos on the cool script

Odd... I'll take a look at it, in the mean time did you try the demo?

Not yet; I've got a few to get through!  I wanted to avoid VX versions to avoid the temptation of buyin' it, but now I finally have it I want t try get my progress back to at least where it was in 2K3 so I can slow down and focus on learning more and finding out why I keep brealing all the scripts I try!! QQ

Alright just let me know when you try the demo.

And for DTs script I was setting up events to trigger random battles so I could test it.  Monsters weren't high on my priority list so I just made a quicky monster and set it for a random encounter event (thinking that test plays might not have it).  Does that mean there's a problem otherwise or that it just doesn't apply on event-based encounters?

Actually I tried multiple things and I frankly can't figure out why it doesn't work for your game.


DoctorTodd, would you mind looking at this?

Things I already tried.

• Copying the original script here to replace the one that was in it.
• Comparing the databases from your demo and his game. Aside from using different characters and having a few things changed in the Vocab. Nothing should break your script.
• Playing around with some settings, to no avail.
• Multitasking from random battles to evented battles

I think the most likely problem is that he is using a custom monster as his troop encounter.
That's what I think anyway.

Well, as scary as it sounds for experienced scripters to be baffled, it's at least a bit reassuring that it's not (neccessarily, I hope) just a huge cock-up on my end

Whatever the outcome, cheers to both of you for your help
Hopefully it gets resolved, cuz it's a damn nice sounding script and I'd love to have it in my game~

Ya I'm pretty confused. 
I tried putting it in a new project and it worked, I did encounter an error where it's not displayed during the first turn which I will hopefully fix soon.

Well, just to ease any concerns you may have about the script, it's...working suddenly. o.o
Just loaded up another test run to make sure an item event I had worked fine and during a random battle started getting experience for each hit.  I'm assuming the script works on giving as much exp per hit as the monster is designated to give?  If so, appears to be working fine now, will make a mention if it stops again.

Hope it sticks, 'cuz it's a fun script.  Especially like the option to turn off the message   Cheers again, you two~

Well it's good to hear it's working now! 

I'm not sure if whatever made it work has made it buggy or if it was intentional and I'm just missing patterns, but it seems to be playin' up a bit.

The exp never seems to be applied on the first turn
Second turn a couple of messages come up, I think this is some delay from the first turn, but on one-turn wins, there's no exp at all.
Am almost certainly getting exp from enemies attacks as well, unless the script is giving them exp for attacking me and displaying it.
After a few turns, the exp starts ramping up hugely, almost doubling up each turn.  Went from 86 (the set amount), to 150ish to over 200xp per hit over three turns.

Thoughts?

(also, got your game over menu script too; brilliant wee script )

In that case I have to do some major revisions to the script, I'll try to get on it right away. Glad you like my game over script. 

Hopefully it's nothing major!  I tried looking over it all for anythin' I'd understand, but scripts really arenae my language

I'll be keeping an eye on this though

Sorry to go off-topic, but are you Scottish Brady?

We're the only country I know of that types in its regional accent and dialect.

Aye...y'know I've never really thought about that before...seems natural to me, but now you mention it...cannae think of another place that does that...unless they do it within other languages o_o'
