[Jedahjony]

Hello, I'm currently experiencing an error with ebdx when enabling custom animations that make the Pokémon move it makes the pokemon suddenly double in size, the same thing also happens when the shiny Pokémon animation plays, any idea how to fix

I think there is a scale option in configuration file.

I think your problems is with animations maybe?

Check in the EBDX code if you have something like pbWait(2) or wait(). If you find it change the value to 0.05 or similar values. And try again.

Is there a way to add gifs? I tried and I get a error message saying that EBDX doesn't support gif support

 

[trainered]

The trainer sprite always goes out of bounds whenever the battle is finished. Are there any solutions to this?

No, not exactly. In v21, they've made it so that way the game speed isn't dependent on the framerate like it use to be. However, EBDX still uses frame-by-frame animation for their move animations, battle entry, etc (since it was before v21). So when you play the game at like 150 fps, it becomes ridiculously fast.

So, I essentially just copy and paste the code for the tick system from the wait function already in essentials v21, did a few slight adjustments and well, it's now going at the normal speed even at such high fps.

Luka will probably come up with a different method cause it was a little not-so-great, but that's my temporary fix.

Hi, I have this problem, please tell which places you copied the code tick or you could be more specific from where you made the adjustments for this temporary fix?

Thanks.

Mind sharing a more full on process on how to achieve this? I'm kinda new to Essentials but interested in using EDBX

Please tell me someone has a fix for this. I'm getting the same problem and I've been trying to fix it for 3 days now but couldn't do it.

Ok so, I already made a very scuffed solution for this.

Basically, you make an event that's set to trigger on Parallel Process and you put this script in it:

EliteBattle.set(:nextBattleBack, {"backdrop" => X})

X being the string of the Battle Environment you're using. In my case it was: "Cave"
Remember to put the " " too.

Is it possible to get some more detailed instructions on how to do this? Kindly appreciated.

New to essentials and EBSX, and this is not the exact same solution but this works as long as you have your monitor set to the same refresh rate the game reads in (mine runs it at 240 fps and it adjusts the battles to the correct speed).

The wait function to change is in \Plugins\Elite Battle DX\[000] Scripts\Battle Scenes\Scene Camera. You can copy over the tick system or just do add a super simple:

fpsmult = Graphics.frame_rate/60 # Define this in any method you use it in
frames_to_wait = fpsmult*frames.to_i

The wait function is in Battle Scene, just before the section "# start the initial scene animation".

This fixed everything for me except the animated trainer sprites, then (also in Battle Scene) right after the section "# start the initial scene animation":
change the first @vector.inc you find to:

@vector.inc = 0.1*fpsmult

I also changed the first 3 "self.wait"s in this section to "self.waitfix" and redefined the wait function back to what is was before (aka no fpsmult)

I'm sure there's a better way to do this, but it's pretty quick and works well. Hope this helps!

The trainer sprite always goes out of bounds whenever the battle is finished. Are there any solutions to this?

Yep! Just go to Plugins\Elite Battle DX\[000] Scripts\Battle Modifiers\Scripted Battles, then:

comment out/delete this line in pbShowOpponent and pbHideOpponent:

moveEntireScene(x, (speech ? +2 : -1), true, true) if i%k > 0 || k == 1

the copy and paste this over the bottom of pbShowOpponent (bold underlines are all I changed)

for i in 0...20.delta_add
k = 20.delta_add/20.0
#moveEntireScene(x, (speech ? +2 : -1), true, true) if i%k > 0 || k == 1
@sprites["opponent"].opacity += 12.8.delta_sub(false)
@sprites["opponent"].x += x/20 if i%k > 0 || k == 1
endx = @sprites["opponent"].x
@sprites["opponent"].y +=0 if i%k > 0 || k == 1
endy = @sprites["opponent"].y
@sprites["box1"].zoom_x += (@viewport.width/16).delta_sub(false) if speech
@sprites["box2"].zoom_x += (@viewport.width/16).delta_sub(false) if speech
self.wait(1, true)
end
@sprites["opponent"].x = endx
@sprites["opponent"].y = endy # + (speech ? 2 : -1)
@sprites["box1"].zoom_x = @viewport.width if speech
@sprites["box2"].zoom_x = @viewport.width if speech

It's not perfect but looks way better. I did this with ESBX ported to v21.1 but if you're on a different version, just find pbShowOpponent and pbHideOpponent; the solution should be similar. Hope this helps!

i don't know if only i have this problem, when a pokemon is evolving i have a blackscreen after level up and before the evolution for about 5 seconds

I also have the same issue, did you manage to fix it?

I also have the same issue, did you manage to fix it?

pbWait(x) changed from frames to seconds in v21.1. Just divide x/100 in the section where it takes to long and it should be fine

Great! Works like a charm, thanks a lot!

How beautiful... Now I wish we got animated sprites for every Pokémon, but beggars can't be choosers.

 

[Cautioncrazy]

Anyone else having issues with bases not showing during battles?

 

[SomebodyRandom]

Will this unofficial port be updated to fix the issues with pbwait and stuff like that
