RPG Maker Custom Battle System [Dragon Blade 4][Rpg Maker 2k3]

[MrRevoltRed]

Have you found someone to translate your dragon blade games?

[setsitaru]

Very, very impressive my friend.

[FBIMaker]

OMG, this is just amazing, downloading now... *.* thanks for making it :D

[Zitil01]

Will this work for RPG maker VX?! This is perfect!!!!!!

[Zrokky]

@Zitil01 I made this in RPG Maker 2003 ^^

[Valiusonline]

I think the battle system is good but somewhat split between focus as in there are several areas to pay attention on in all battles and the music would annoy me to no end for every encounter but how you encorporate the battles from free roam to fighting is great.

I can see alot of work has gone into this game and it has paid off!

[Pr0udDragon]

How...the heck...did you make this with RM2k3!?!? Great job!!

[krisugraund]

Very nice work, this is great battle system :)

[MarkHajdukSplit]

The name is VERY cliche, but with the battle system, graphics ect, It looks amazing!

Traditional rpgs (like with dragons) can be good in a nostalgic way though. I want to play this now that I've seen the preview, but if I just glanced at the title then I wouldn't have bothered... original names please ppl!!! :L

[HiddenAbilities]

Amazing, how long did this take?

[Cavage]

I want this battle System for VX!

[chris18911]

downloadlink from maker 2003?

[Kaktusz4]

Üdv!

Letöltöttem és kipróbáltam a demot. Már a db3-ban is tetszett a real time BS, ahhoz képest ez több szempontból is jobban tetszett. Nem csak sétálgat a karakter, hanem fut ha elküldöm valahova, próbálja kikerülni az akadályokat, a terep ugyanaz mint ahol harcba keveredtünk, a támadások is elég jól néznek ki, ezek mind igazán tetszettek. Ezek mellett még számomra pozitív hogy az a fránya fájdalom is eltűnt DB2, 3-hoz képest, ami sokszor billentette a mércét igencsak az ellenfél előnyére.

[Kaktusz4]

@Kaktusz4 Még amit írni szerettem volna, csak nem fért ki: Az egyetlen dolog ami még jobbá tehetné a harcrendszered (legalábbis szerintem) ha távolsági fegyverrel szemből is lehetne támadni és nem csak oldalról. Na meg a barlangból végtelen számú nyálkák előbukkanása néha kicsit sok.

[Zrokky]

I don't mind, good luck with it :)

The music is from the anime called Nogizaka Haruka No Himitsu - Opening (can't remember the title of the song -_-), you can find it here on youtube ^^

[Allztah]

nice Battlesystem *_* i'm trying myself on a similar one if it's okay =)

Anyone knows the songname in the intro and the victory screen?

[priris]

@Allztah try looking at digital devils themes.

[csakesz182]

je jóez :D

[Seshoumaru9001]

O.o

[NeoTifasRevenge]

You really should put some of the bad voice acting from Star Ocean 2 PSX in here LOL :) "Craud has advanced forward!!!" and who could forget... SPICULE!!!!!! hehehe

[SweetyGirly88]

This is alittle bit like Grandia :D

[Zrokky]

@SweetyGirly88

Yeah kinda', but Star Ocean's battle system inspirated me to make this ^^

[SweetyGirly88]

@Zrokky Star ocean forever xD love it :D got star ocean 1- 4 haha

[Clarishu]

@Zrokky

That battle system is the best.

[123ackbar]

how do you battle like this?

[Zrokky]

@123ackbar

It's not really hard, you only need to use the basic RM commands. Search google for RPG Maker bs tutorials, I'm pretty sure you'll find some useful stuff ^^

[123ackbar]

@Zrokky wow, thanks man :D

[huntingdragon]

I think its a good battle style but I think the little screen after a battle sequence is not needed. However I think u could use it in a side-view battle system.

[DraikRoan]

Oh look its the forest chipset I edited lol.

[Idiotldol]

WHAT THE FUCK?

This is awesome, much cooler than rpg maker xp? all the hits whit out going in battle

[PhoenixSora9aOs3]

where can i find those awsome tiles?

[Zrokky]

@PhoenixSora9aOs3

Go to charas-project for the chipsets ^^

[kiker56489]

@Zrokky can you tell me how to make a battle system like that! please! ill do anything!

[luigi400000]

the hole time i was saying, "WOW! this is rpg maker xp?!?!??!!??!

[Zrokky]

@luigi400000 Nope, it's RPG Maker 2003 ^^

[luigi400000]

@Zrokky *twitches* to cool....

[cloud7184]

Crap my translate program broke and told me it cant translate hugraim now it only translate japnsse

[whoryhobopowers]

Holy crap, I applaud you for this.

This is a beautiful battle system

[kagetoranese]

This deserves a freaking award. One of the most original combat systems I have ever seen on RPG maker.

[LeslieNstrat]

I know you've heard this a million times but can u show how to make a relative party ABS? not one exactly like yours that be stealin your genius lol but how to have your partner or others follow as well as fight with you...I'm pretty damn good at eventing in rm2k3 but not this good lol

[Zrokky]

@LeslieNstrat I made this battle system myself whitout useing any tutorials or such. The "source" is private ^^"

About the bs, it's like a caterpillar system whith a menu system. You tell the characters which event to follow, and when they are 1-2 steps away, they perform an attack. It's not so hard to make a system like this but takes a lot of time to make. I spent about 2-3 months on this one and I'm still adding new stuff to it.

[LeslieNstrat]

@Zrokky oh ok i understand, but just one last question...i know melee and magic systems, hp, and mp but i don't exactly know how to get my partner to follow the enemy event, any help with that? thanks

[Zrokky]

@LeslieNstrat You can set a variable to store an event X or Y coordinate.

If you set a variable to the Hero event's X coordinate and subtract the Enemy event's X coordinate, you get the distance between the two events.

If this number is smaller than 0 -> the Hero event is left to the Enemy event and needs to go right. If smaller than 0 then the hero event needs to go left.

Do all this with the Y coordinate too and there you go ^^

[chrisall76]

@Zrokky that looks

pretty cool!!can i ave the code

so i can use it for my

game.i want it were i can battle without going on

the battle scren.

[Zrokky]

@chrisall76 Thx, but no, this is a battle system I made myself and is private ^^"

Try to make your own, there are tonns of tutorials on the internet that might help you. Or use other public scripts if there's any.

[chrisall76]

@Zrokky well thats ok.now i

know i can make my own battle

system.also,where do i download the game?

everytime i click download

it gose to a domain website

[Zrokky]

@chrisall76 Sure you can. It's not hard at all, just needs a lot of your freetime and some experience. It's basicalli a common caterpillar system combined with a menu-system and there's tonns of tutorials about them on the net ^^

My website (and all my projects) are down at the moment. I'm working on a new website. It'll be ready in a few weeks I guess. You can find a link to my "under construction" site in my youtube profile.

Some links in the descripsions of my videos are dead.. :S

[chrisall76]

@Zrokky yea im learning

how to code in c++ to make a code.

[rayhaku]

Your music sounds like megaman lol but I like it

[ninjaguru17]

Gah! If only there were some tutorial. I know how to event quite well on rm2k3 I just haven't the slitest idea on how to make something like this! I know switches variables, etc... and have been using it for years TT^TT you are of the gods...

[joshtr1001]

pretty epic battle system. also, this game should be on dsi ;D

[Shokukumi]

Incredible <3

[hxckid1988]

I think KOTOR, FF XII and XIII, and something like this combined would make the best RPG battle system. Yours kinda reminds me of chrono trigger mixed with grandia with FF XII

[Krometion]

wonderful shit

[YggdrasilLotus]

question i thougth of using this sort of battle system in my up coming project u inspired me and my friends alot already into making a game =P but the question how dous this system work at intesif boss fights ?

[caneida]

How did you create a battle system like that? If I knew how to do all that programming and coding...I'd make a crazed out battle system

[Zrokky]

@caneida

I simplye used the basic event commands :)

You can move events, draw pictures to the screen and such.. this bs is just the combination of these commands + lots of experience with rpg maker ^^

[caneida]

I know the events. But..the pictures to the screen and such...I don't know how to do...

T-T T-T T-T

What's twice as sad is....I've had rpg maker for maybe 3-4 years

[Kiyamlol]

@Zrokky why u really mastered event commants then ^^

when i used to do this stuff i failed miserably to make em work for my drawings :(

[SquareTales]

@Zrokky lol as i know you cant spin pics in rpg maker vx....  can you tell me how you spinned those flower thingys in the EXP scene

[Zrokky]

@SquareTales Sure, there's a "rotate" option in both show picture adn move picture commands. If you check it the selected picture will rotate. After that, you can simply move the rotating picture with the "move picture" command.

[Sancleo10]

hogy csináltad ezt a battle systemet? nagyon cool! a saját játékomhoz kellene

[Zrokky]

@Sancleo10

Hy,

MInden teljesen saját fejlesztés, de a scriptek nem publikusak ^^"

[ninjaguru17]

are we allowed to use this? I mean besides demo is there a game proj demo?

[Zrokky]

@ninjaguru17

Sorry, but no. It's a battle system I made it myself, for entertainment purposes only ^^"

[Lugia625]

Will this work for rpg maker xp? Besides the script, what do I need to make it work?

[Zrokky]

@Lugia625

It uses only the basic event commands in RM2k3 so I'm pretty sure you could make a system like this in RMXp too ^^

I made this system myself so I'm not sure you'll find any scripts like this on the net :/

[ScytheAzure]

when this demo started the music right at the start i reconize but cant put my finger on it, what is it? good system by the way

[rokiux325]

I see awfuly alot of potential in this. probably one of the best rpg maker games i have ever seen.

BTW were those little fighter 2 sounds i heard?

[Zrokky]

@rokiux325 Thx ^^

I'm not sure. It was in a "voice pack" found on the net some years ago.

It's probably LF2 :)

[Kenshin2511]

deserves atleast 200k views

[Railkune]

I played this. Fun as crap lol. You did a great job on this.

[Zrokky]

Thank you ^^

it's just the demo, I'm sure the full version is going to be much better.

[Railkune]

I know the full version will be better lol. This is so good. We can easily tell you put a lot of work into this. Bravo work. You deserve it.

[ninjaguru17]

this..... IS AWESOME! I WAS looking for a custom abs for my zelda project, but this would work fine totally epic 5/5 faved subbed

[HuMiL1At0r]

i want that battle system at RPG MAKER VX.. anybody know how?

[LordShiru]

@HuMiL1At0r You can do it. The game uses RPG MAKER 2003 so there's no Ruby scripts. It means that you can do it in events.

The game is awesome :).

[Railkune]

Use events. All the Rpg Maker Programs can use this if you know how to event out all of the stuff.

[Zrokky]

Yupp, it's made with the basic event commands (move events, variables, swistches, pictures, lots of fork conditions-s etc..), no patches or anything ^^

[deluxedookie]

wow you sure know how to use rpgmaker2003 like the back of you hand.

gave me more motivation.

[Renkay141]

and this is y I say 2k3 Rpg is better than Xp or any other

[IUsePivotALot]

How do i get that battle system?

[Zrokky]

I made this myself :)

Make your own or you can search the net for some bs tutorials ^^

[Kokoru88]

IM making a zombie game and i need a battle system like this but im on a time limit of about 4 weeks is there any possible of making a CBS liek this that wont take long?

[Zrokky]

I'm not sure about it. This battle system took me about a month to make and it's not ready yet.

There will be a lot more skills, conditions, animations and stuff..

If you know how to make a system like this, you can make it in a few weeks, but it would be take much longer if you have no experience in making stuff like this ^^"

[Kokoru88]

well I successfully made a melee attack its a litte glitchy and you get attack first most of the time but it's a start ^^ but thanks anyways oh and very nice game by the way Itried downloading the english but it said it was invalid )=

[Psychlonic]

How much text is in your games? How much time would it take to translate if you were to find a willing translator or two?

[Zrokky]

Tonns of text :3

(It has about 2-4 hours of gameplay, and it's just the demo version.)

I think the translation could be made in a few hours.

[phlim2]

wow... i'm amazed that RM2k3 can do this :P

[declaration963]

i don't have rm2k3 rtp and the maker, can i play the game ?

[Zrokky]

Yes, you can, but you have to speak Hungarian language to play this game.

[aphelias]

Don't keep someting like this to yourself share it with the world! Make the rm2k3 world a better place.

[RefrishX]

nice game,

but it seems that you're not good at playing your own game !

[Zrokky]

Lol, I played like that on purpose..

you know, for the video to show you guys some stuff from the bs :)

[cincai5609]

Is the script available to use in RPG Maker VX? and can it work on more than 2 characters? It's cool!!!!!!! Admire it so much!!!

[Zrokky]

Nope, this is a battle system script I made myself. You can't find any tutorials or anything and the scripts are private, sorry ^^"

This system can handle 4 main characters, 1 pet (yet), and about 6 enemies + a lot of extras like fallings, throwing stuff at other characters and so :3

I'm using RM2k3 but I'm sure this (or a similar) battle system could be made in RmVX too.

[Bl1nd845]

How do you display numbers on the screen? I can't believe you assigned a graphic and an event for absolutely every number from 0 to 9999 D:

[Genshyu]

Probably an RPG Maker hack

[Zrokky]

Nope, it's just some rm scripts, no hacks, patches or anything :)

[louieisanan]

woah!

Epic!

[reido66]

Question: What is the game's storyline?

[Zrokky]

In short,

Mark (main character) and his whife goes on a honeymoon trip taking a space-battle-ship (of course there is a great space war, but they don't give a damn..) when some bad dude plant some bombs everywhere on the spaceship and detonates it.

After the explosion Mark opens his eyes and finds himself alone on an unknown planet. He can't remember anything after the explosion or about how did he got to that planet, so he's about to begin a trip to get some clues.

[Zrokky]

It's just the beginning of the story, but it's not 100% yet :3

If interested, you can download the english (or more like engrish :S) version of "Intro and Battle System demo".

Check video description for more info.

[Veilgan]

look like chrono trigger.... pretty gud

but the victory song is too "great" for a simple battle

[poloroid2290]

exactly my thought! XD

[spatchycat]

what program is this?

[Zrokky]

It's RPG Maker 2003 ^^

[spatchycat]

where can i get that program?

[C1l3nX3]

On the internet, just use google to search for it.

[BeanieGamer]

WOW!

[RebirthedKarma]

Looks cool! Do you mind if other people use your battle system, as long as they give you credit? I really like it.

[Zrokky]

Let's just say, I created all my games, scripts, and most of my graphics as well. I don't really like the idea of other people using my stuff I've been working for years (so I coded all my games) :S

Of course you can make your own system that looks like mine if you want to, but don't take my stuff pls. ^^

[LupinAKAFlashTH]

How do you get this result with RPG Maker 2003 (2k3)? You can't script in the game, theirs only the event system.

So how do you code the game like this? Lot's of pictures (for menus and HUDs), I would guess, but come on! I've tried doing something like this!

I'm not saying it's fake, but it's hard to believe you did this on RPG Maker 2k3.

[Zrokky]

Download it and see it for your self :)

Check out video description for dll link ^^

[FATofBMS]

oh lol i was gunna ask you how you can add this to your game but you created it yourself. I understand! But how do i make my own battle system? Do i have to be like SUPER genious and professional to do it? or can you give me a link that teaches how to do it?

[Zrokky]

I can't give you any tutorials because I made this battle system myself (whitout using any tutorials or help ^^)

It's not hard to make a battle system.. (at least not for me :) ).

You might find some tutorials on the net, try to google it, or visit GamingWorld-s forum, you might find some useful stuff there :3

[Zrokky]

A játék demója két napja került fel a weblapra, ha érdekel lesd meg, lapunkról letölthető ^^

//

The demo version of the game was released 2 days ago, yet it's only available in Hungarian language :(

[gus0509]

Woah! Did you script this? It's far better than the awesome Tenkentai Battle System!

[Zrokky]

Thx ^^

Yeah, it's my own battle system and it's going to be much more better in the full version of the game :3

[gus0509]

your welcome, I'l lenjoy watching your other videos. Have a look at my RMVX ones.

[knightblazer008]

This battle system is really good. You just gave me an idea on how I want to make my battle system to play out like. Thanks dude. ^^

Awesome art by the way. Are you into anime and manga?

[Zrokky]

Thank you ^^

Yeah, I'm an anime and manga fan. I like drawing anime/manga style drawings too :)

[UTUBEiscrappness]

it's ok i guess

[Zrokky]

It's just a battle system demo plus the intro of the game ^^

The demo version is going to be released in a few days/weeks, but only in Hungarian language :(

[iGaSega]

Hmm thats a custom tile set also...

Nice work!

[hxckid1988]

Can they do any speacial skills or magic? Ranged weapons? also nice job with somehow allowing them to chuck rocks, kudos.

[Zrokky]

Sure they can, but not on this video :)

It was an early preview with just some basic stuff. In the game, you can give them a some better weapons like bows and boomerangs or granades etc etc..

There's the healing magic and a hiding skill in the Demo version, but nothing else yet. + some other skills for the enemies.

Of course, there will be a lot of other skills/special skill and stuff in the full version of the game ^^

[RikuCotton]

does this work for rpg maker vx?

[Zrokky]

It's rm2k3 but I'm sure this system could be made in vx too.

I made this system btw ^^"

[RikuCotton]

aw, mah, GAWD! that is awesome!

[DboiKidCrisis]

Do you understand how amazing this is yourself?

[Wisserg]

this is crazy !! nice work men ! , how did u change ur battel system ?

[Bryn67]

I HATE Philippinen MALE AND FEMALE

[WillyFoxpitt]

awesome

[konner02]

I couldn't download it, and the site is not in english, what's wrong? Tell me when the website is up again, ok?

[Zrokky]

It's an hungarian website and the game itself is hungarian too. One of our forum members translated this Intro and BS demo into english ^^"

At the moment there are some problem with our webserver that's why you can only see an error message :(

I'm not sure when will they fix this problem.. yesterday it worked for about 2 hours and now it's down again.. It's been down for a week now :S

I'll leave a message here once the server is back online.

[Zrokky]

The site is online again, get the link at the video description ^^

[Yeuyo]

Where to download, I can't seems to download it.

[Zrokky]

Our webserver was temporarily down for a week ( from Mar. 9 to Mar. 16 ).

It seems it's working now, check the link at the video description ^^

[Renkay141]

in the turn thing(lower right corner0 why are there 2 different collors of hair of the chars?

[Zrokky]

If the character's head is normal then the characher damaged an enemy, if it's red the character recived the damage.

The numbers are there to show the amount of the damage :3

[Renkay141]

oh I got one problem(I played the game and is frkin AWESOME!!!)

but how did you got the sound to work?u know...the background sound... for some reason I can't hear it

[Zrokky]

The game uses midi files. Go to the Windows Sound Settings and try giving some volume for the midi Synt or SW or what it's name.

[Renkai141]

ya...that's the problem I got Ubuntu T_T wich 4 sum reason I can't read Midi Files wich sucks

[XXXArchXAngelXXX]

dude how did you create the character sprites?

[Zrokky]

I made them with IDraw ^^

I make all my characters for some years now.

[XXXArchXAngelXXX]

where can i download it its super cool!!

[Zrokky]

IDraw? Don't really know, I downloaded it few years ago from an hungarian RM team's site.. Try google or GamingW.

Don't except too much, it's a normal graphical program that similar to windows paint :D

You need some skills or experience or whatever. There is another program called Chara maker EX. You can make normal RM character sets with it and it's really easy to use.

You just click on some pictures, faces, clothes, hair style and there you go, you have a charset ^^

[Fakaaal]

this battle system reminds me of growlancers battle system

[Zrokky]

Hmm, not sure, haven't played that.

I'm a Star Ocean fan and its battle system inspirated me ^^

[srbrunoaf]

You almost died to a bunch of slimes?

Just kidding, nice battle system...

[Zrokky]

Thanks mate, don't forget a horde of slimes are dangerous ;)

[TheRexion]

Totaly cool!

[SoaFugibyashi]

OK WOW! i so want to play this! and i want a system like this in my game! with some minor tweeks .... how is this done?

[Zrokky]

Check out video description for download link :)

The source of the system is not public ^^

[Renkay141]

okay WOW how u do this??

[dragonscar101]

nice

[moonlightguardian]

mada mada dane

[yangusis]

I need to know before I test this out. Is the cbs free-movement, or making commands e.g. attack [target], move there, etc? [btw i wrote this with my wii :D

[Zrokky]

You have to select each character and give them commands (Like move to position or attack an enemy).

In the full version the characters will act on their own if not selected.

So you don't have to command each of them, they will help the others fighting evil etc etc.. :D

But that will be the full version and this is just some early demo. Check it out, it's available in English version too :)

(it's not a professional translation, but it's better than nothing ^^)

[szlatyka]

Zrokk-mester újra nagyot alkotott... Szívem húzz vissza hozzád, ó te csodálatos ATB, eme rendszert pedig ki értheti, mégis oly kickass, hogy ki kell próbálni!

[Zrokky]

Ne nyajjá' kiscsávó', inkább nézz be a fórumra, mert már rég jártál arra :D

[szlatyka]

Nem nyalok csak véleményt nyilvánítottam XD amúgy letöltöttem az angol verziót (ami közben mutálódott magyarrá) és BULLSHIT, mi az h bs-próba és félórán keresztül megy az intró?! XD

[Zrokky]

Az úgy van elnevezve, hogy "Dragon Blade 4 - Intro AND battlesystem demo" ;)

Mi a gond az angol verzióval? o_O

[szlatyka]

Semmi XD félrelestem XD de az intró akkor is kicsit hosszú lett (én meg a bs-t lestem volna csak meg és már idegbeteg voltam a végére XD)

[Strizx]

Man i don't understand the speak... And i don't know where i can find the english version but can you send a message?

[Zrokky]

Check the video description for the download link :)

(At the right menu. Above the related videos there is a text "Download the English version:" and a link)

[b4mbooch4]

jó kis játék.a zenét te írtad hozzá?

[Zrokky]

Köszönöm,

Nem, grafikus vagyok, nem zenész :)

Ha érdekel, ezt a Magyar nyelvű játékbemutatót letöltheted a weboldalunkról.

A linket megtalálod a youtube-s profilomban ^^

[Soyawannabeamasta]

Very nice! I'm intrested in a release! I still have Dragon Blade 3, very nice game! Very great graphics! Keep it up!

[Zrokky]

Thx! :)

To download this game check out the video description (at right above the 'Related Videos' block) for the download link ^^

[Soyawannabeamasta]

Very Nice! Can't wait to play it!
