Ambush BGMs

Ambush BGMs
Version: 1.0
Author: modern algebra
Date: April 20, 2009

Version History

• <Version 1.0> 04.20.2009 - Original Release

Description

This script will allow you to set different BGMs to play depending on the ambush conditions of the battle. Thus, if it is a pre-emptive attack (heroes have the upper hand), you can set it to play a different BGM from the regular, or if it is an enemy surprise attack, then you can set it to play still another BGM.

Features

• Allows you to have different BGMs play depending on the ambush conditions
• Can set a separate BGM for both party surprise attacks and enemy surprise attacks
• Can change these BGMs at any time in-game with a call script

Screenshots

This script has no graphical component. Just test it out.

#  Description:
#    This script makes it so that preemptive battles and surprise battles can
#   have different BGMs playing than regular battles.
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#  Instructions:
#    Insert this script above Main and below other custom scripts.
#
#    You can set the default audio files for this at lines 49 and 50. Just
#   change the words in quotes ("") to the names of the BGM files you choose.
#
#    To change the bgms for preemptive and/or surprise battles during the
#   course of a game, all that you need to do is use the following codes in a
#   script call:
#
#      $game_system.preemptive_battle_bgm = "filename"
#      $game_system.surprise_battle_bgm = "filename"
#
#   where "filename" is the name of the BGM file you wish to change it to.
