.gif Animations
Hello,

I've been messing around VX Ace for quite some time, and got around a lot of hurdles with the minimal scripts possible (only have 1, and it's to have more control over the text).

But, I'm doing an H-VN, and it's possible for me to add some small animations on the H-Scenes, however, I know that VX Ace doesn't accept .gif files, so I tried to find a script for that - http://www.rpgmakervxace.net/topic/281-gif-animation-sequences/

I don't understand how this works >_> can someone write me an example below, or explain me how this works? How do I start a gif, let it loop while I show text, and then stop it when I want.

I hate to be such a noob >_>
:templars:

This script is bad. I'd suggest using a set of show picture commands erasing the image before it and placing all of those commands within a loop bracket. This should be done in a seperate event from your text event. I'm not sure if it will continue to loop, but I know I was able to make a Show Balloon command work and loop this way.

Ok, there is a very similar script that does that for me and is very easy to use, the downside is that, I'll have to export the animation frame by frame >,> I'll try it out to see how it works then. Maybe will do a... 6 to 10 frame animation!? I think that's enough.

The first script also required everything to be done frame by frame.

Oh ok.
Anyway, I took your advice, made a 20 frame H-Scene and tried to make a way to fit the loop and the text flowing at the same time.
After some trial and errors, I got it right... it's a mess, but, it works and it's fluid, with no need for scripts.

Since it's such a crazy way to do it, I'll probably just do like, 3 of these, for the main H-Scenes, everything else, goes with a normal CG.

I already liked RPG Maker for VN's, but with the stuff I'm creating now, I'm loving it, it's just a shame that the resolution is capped so low >_>

Thanks again!

Oh also, Kurashi, I supose I cannot link my work here (on steam forums) once I finish right?
I mean, it's an Echii game, but it has H-scenes...

No. Mature content cannot be directly linked here. You can indicate that it is finished and ask others to go elsewhere if they wish to see it however you cannot directly link it here.
