Follow the installation instructions. Particularly the third step.

With this (and ZUD) I am strangely unable to edit sprite positions in the debug menu of certain Pokemon and forms.

For example, Mega Venusaur is not able to be edited, and some Pokemon like Zacian don't appear (this does not happen if I remove the plugin). Could you possibly look into this?

Are you talking about editing the Dynamax sprites, or the normal ones? Because one is intentional, and the other isn't.

EDIT: NVM, I fixed it. Redownload ZUD.

Cool, thanks! Sorry if I explained it weird haha

Hi, I'm having another strange issue with sprite positioning.

Some Mons like Regional Forms, Morpeko, Aegislash, etc. will not keep their edited positions from the Debug editor. I know this was the case for the Mega Evos (you solved that) but what do you think would cause this? I am only using ED and ZUD.

This would be a ZUD issue, not Essentials Deluxe. This plugin doesn't edit the sprite positioner at all.
However, I don't seem to replicate this issue, so you'll have to be more specific about what you're doing. For the record, I tried editing the metrics for both Articuno and Galarian Articuno, and both were properly saved.

Lucidious89 updated Essentials Deluxe [v20.1] with a new update entry:

v1.0.7 Update

• Fixed a bug related to the effect of G-Max Steelsurge being checked for even if the ZUD Plugin is not installed.
• Added the :trainer midbattle key. You may set this to a battler index to set which opposing trainer should appear on screen during dialogue. This is only applicable in double or triple battles with multiple opponents. This may be used to specify which trainer should appear on screen during dialogue, even if their Pokemon wasn't the one who triggered a...

I'm having trouble figuring out what value is expected when for the 2nd variable when using tailwind
I have it set up as the following in my code

"afterLast_foe" => {
:team => [PBEffects::Tailwind, x]
},

For "x" I've tried integers from 0 to 5 and ":Self" as well as ":side" and I keep getting an error

I'm having trouble figuring out what value is expected when for the 2nd variable when using tailwind
I have it set up as the following in my code

"afterLast_foe" => {
:team => [PBEffects::Tailwind, x]
},

For "x" I've tried integers from 0 to 5 and ":Self" as well as ":side" and I keep getting an error

The accepted values for the :team key should be:
1) A valid PBEffect that affects one side of the field.
2) A value for the above PBEffect to be set to (boolean or numeral)
3) A string to act as a message for the application of the PBEffect (optional).
4) A value of "true" if the above message should refer to a specific battler name, rather than depicting a text for a team, such as "The wild Bulbasaur" rather than "The opposing team", for example (optional).

However, your error doesn't have to do with the values you're inputting, it's due to the fact that you need a second pair of brackets around your values. The effects entered for the :effects, :team and :field keys are entered as a multi-dimensional array. So it's an array that itself contains its own arrays (one array per effect).

So it should look something like:

:team => [
   [PBEffects::One, Value, Message],
   [PBEffects::Two, Value, Message],
   [PBEffects::Three, Value, Message]
]

Obviously, if Tailwind is the only effect you want to apply, then you only need to have one array for that one effect. However, it still needs to be contained within the overall meta array that contains all the effect arrays.

 

[mark2826]

Oh I see. I went over you'e tutorial and you did show that for a single array.
It works now. Thank you for the help.

v1.0.8 Update

If you are using the ZUD Plugin, please update that plugin to its latest version (v1.0.5) as well.

[RidgeBoy]

This is awesome!!
Is there any way to change the text-color during mid-battle speeches?
I tried using
:speech => ["\bLet's Fight!"]
But it seems \b doesn't turn the text blue like in other events.

Was just hoping to make it a bit more clear who is talking when the text appears.

Lucidious89 updated Essentials Deluxe [v20.1] with a new update entry:

v1.0.9 Update

Apologies for the back to back updates, but it's come to my attention that the version I released yesterday accidentally included some out-of-date files that didn't actually do what the patch notes said they would do. I've rectified this with this update so that all the appropriate files are now updated. I've also made some final tweaks in preparation for the release of a new plugin.

• Reuploaded files included in the 1.0.8 update that were accidentally uploaded in an out of date...

v1.1 Update

Apologies for yet another update, but im preparing to release a new plugin, which means it's time to yet again update Essentials Deluxe for compatibility purposes.
If you are using my Improved Field Skills plugin, you must also update that plugin to v1.0.1.

• Updated compiler and other miscellaneous code in preparation for the release of the Legendary Breeding plugin.
• Moved around some code so that the Improved Field Skills plugin is compatible with future plugins I...

I'm having some trouble understanding the syntax on how to deploy certain effects. I'm trying to apply a Foresight at the beginning of the battle, so that the enemy team's Ghost-type can now be hit by Normal moves.

I'm trying to look over your examples to understand the pattern. You have this in the example tutorial for the wild Rotom:

      :effects => [
        [PBEffects::Charge, 5, "{1} began charging power!"],
        [PBEffects::MagnetRise, 5, "{1} levitated with electromagnetism!"],
      ],

What does the 5 in both the Charge and Magnet Rise lines mean?

Similarly, I was looking through the PokeCommunity thread on this, and saw you helping someone with trick room

:field => [
     [PBEffects::TrickRoom, 99, "The dimensions were twisted!"],
     [PBEffects::MagicRoom, 99, "All Pokémon's held items lost their effects!"],
     [PBEffects::WonderRoom, 99, "Defense and Sp. Def stats are swapped"],
     [PBEffects::Gravity, 99, "Gravity intensified!"]
 ]

... and you said that it had to be listed out this way. What does the 99 mean here?

I know Trick Room is a "field" instead of an "effect but I tried copying the Trick Room example over for my case of Foresight as follows:

      :effect => [ [PBEffects::Foresight, 99, "All Pokemon were identified!"] ],

But afterwards, my Normal type move still doesn't hit the Ghost-type.

Can you elaborate on the syntax of the effects examples and how I would go about deploying Foresight?

This is my full script call in MidBattle_Config

I am calling this using:

TrainerBattle.dx_start([:RIVAL_Artie, "Artie", 0], {}, :ARTIE_FIRST_BATTLE)

Just for some additional context, I have a Ghost-type regional Minccino so that's why the text says Minccino but the choice of Pokemon isn't the issue.

Lucidious89 updated Essentials Deluxe [v20.1] with a new update entry:

v1.1.1 Update

• Fixed a bug that would cause a crash when returning to the field after equipping or removing an item from a Pokemon through the party menu.
• Fixed a bug that would cause a crash only if setting midbattle trainer speech as a string or an array, rather than as part of a hash.
• Fixed an error that would make it so that effects that apply to one side of the field wouldn't be set on the correct party when setting it as part of a midbattle hash.
• Thoroughly updated the plugin...

The errors that i though to be with ZUD plugin, are from essentials deluxe. Here is a small video about it: https://www.mediafire.com/file/o0dw2t5hkbjbc4e/essentials_deluxe_errors%2Cbugs.rar/file

1- I've tested this script without the ZUB plugin, just for testing, and i only edited the plugin settings nothing more.

2- As you can see, an error pops up when i tried to use a move in battle + something wron with the bag too, but in outside of battle, when i go to the bag "9" an error and crash appens + the screen transition when changing the pokemon is a little bit weird.

Can you host the video somewhere? I cant open this file on my phone, and im on vacation so im no where near my computer. Even just a gif or screenshots of the error would be fine.

Also, have you installed the latest version of both plugins yet?

Just from the description you're giving me, im really doubtful that this is an error with the current plugin.


Edit: NVM, i got the video to work.

The error is due to you using an outdated version of Enhanced UI. Update that plugin.

The bag display issues seem like theyre just a graphics issue. ZUD comes with replacement graphics for the interactable bag plugin. Make sure those are all installed.
