What is this script?
This simple script allows you to have a battle background instead of the abstract background which is the default for RPG Maker VX. Simply define the Background filename in the customization section, along with your Map_ID.

- Simple

Looks good. You're way ahead of the game, aren't you? 

Nice work.

They don't even have this in VX 0.o?

God, without you VX would really suck.

VX draws the Map background, blurs it, stretches it out, then loops an abstract effect over it.

Dude...
You don't even need to have this to make it to where you can see the background in a fight
I'll show anyone how!
Thanks,

What's the "battlefloor"?

[Silent Insanitys]

I use KCG_DayNight scrip and some of my maps have [DN_VOID] in it to turn off the scrip. Because of this the background scrip gets confused when I put in the map name. Here is an example.

Inn Basement Level 1[DN_VOID] => "gallery_67409_516_25151",

Can you fix this please?

Map ID and Map name are not the same thing ^^

Simply define the Background filename in the customization section, along with your Map_ID.
