Title: (Aveyond-related q's) How to make movie/cut-scene & bigger characters?
Post by: Toasty on January 10, 2011, 03:03:29 PM
So I'm using RPG VX to make a game, but I would really like to characters to have the same size as the characters in the Aveyond-series...
Here is the sprite size of a sprite in RMVX:

And here are the sprite size from the Aveyond-series:

I really hope you can see a difference between the two sprite sets...
How do I do that? Plus, it means that I have to make the sprites from scratch, doesn't it?

------------------------------

Another thing; any one remember the intro to Aveyond:Rhen's Quest? Where Talia is almost crushed on the top of that cliff? Like this link shows (ignore the talking man): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtgNesNvGhg (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtgNesNvGhg)
What I want to know about this, is how do I make the long scene where the butterfly flies over the land? I want that in my intro, but without the butterfly...
I'm gonna need the maps right, obviously? Unless, it's the same case as in Rhen's Quest - the map from the intro video is never used in the actually game.

I think it's hard to describe, when english isn't your preferred language, but I tried.
Hope you understand what I mean, and if not, I'll try to explain it in another way :)

Thanks in advance

Aveyond was made in RMXP
Those are RMXP templates.

Also, as far as cutscenes go, I suggest you brush up on eventing, seriously.

How do use rmxp templates in rmvx then?

And I know how to make cutscenes, but I have my doubts about making the whole "movie-over-the-land" thing...

Awesome and Amazing website that can tell you everything you need to know about using RMXP sprites in RMVX (http://tinyurl.com/6hgzngx)

As for flying, look into the phase (iirc) toggle that makes an event/player move through everything as though there's no collision.

Wauw that was a cool link :D
And ok, I'll try that phase thing... gonna post later how it worked out...
Thanks

[EDIT]: Ok so, I've got the movie-thing working. I used the "Scroll Map" function under the 2nd tab in the event maker.
But how do I get it triggered without the Player in the screen?
