Animated Sprites during battle?

[BrainOoze]

I noticed in the trailer that during the battles, the sprites are static. Is it possible to have them animated?

Are you talkling about a Side View Battle System? You can check the side view battle ON on the systems page so battles will take place with a acting sv character rather than a front screen view. Every character you create in the generator has a potential SV battler sheet complete with several different action poses whic you can assign to skills you make for them. I would check your built in helps and tutorials about that stuff.

Since you don't seem to own MV on Steam, I'm guessing you're asking as a prospective buyer?

By default, enemies are static but the player's party members are animated. It's possible to animate enemies using a plugin; Yanfly's one is the most popular and is pretty simple to set up; you can check out the video here showing it in action: http://yanfly.moe/2015/12/13/yep-44-animated-sideview-enemies/

Just for information, plugins are essentially just another kind of file you copy into your project's folders, much like images/audio. They add to, or override, the base code so you can do more stuff. Some offer configuration options, too, which are all handled within the main editor.

Thanks for the replies. I am a prospective buyer and I will purchase in the near future.
