Bug Report

This is a page dedicated for bug reports.
When reporting a bug it’s important to add the following information.

  • Maker version
  • Script/Plugin name and version.
  • List of other Victor Engine Scripts/Plugins being used.
  • Error message (if the game crash). For RPG Maker MV, press F8 and send a screenshot of the console error message. (please, don’t paste the error message here).
  • detailed info about the situation that caused the error.

IMPORTANT:

  • This is not the place to ask for support. If you have a issue with a script/plugin, ask it on it’s own post. To keep this area clean (wich is very important to keep track of wich bugs are fixed or not) only actual bugs will be approved.
  • Incompatibility issues are not bugs. There are scripts/plugins that will simply not work together, I will check if the incompatibility is minor, but if it’s something major, specially if the issue is caused by the other code, there is not much I can do. It’s very improdutive to spend time messing with something that is working fine alone, just because a specific plugin/script not created by me is conflicting with it. You can post incompatibilities here, but they will not be prioritary.
  • Don’t report compatibility issues listing dozen of plugins/scripts from other authors together. Filter wich plugins/scripts are causing the issues with the Victor Engine before reporting. If you post a list with 10 or more scripts/plugins from other authors, don’t expect me to find out wich ones are the issue. Remember: I didn’t do those plugins, so I have no idea of what they are about, so I have to study them. You don’t really expect me to study 10 or 20 different plugins/scripts from different authors to solve a issue that is not caused by my code alone, right?
  • Provide links to plugins/scripts from other authors. Assuming that you followed the above instruction and found the plugin/script that is causing incompatibility, provide a link to the plugin/script being used. If you have the it, you know where it came from, so make my life easier by providing a link to the source. The easier you make it for me, the higher is the chance for me to looking into the issue and trying to find a solution.
  • Reports with insufficient data will be removed without notice. Finding a bug can be hard, so help me to do so by providing all information you can. Like I said just above: The easier you make it for me, the higher is the chance for me to looking into the issue and trying to find a solution.
  • Bugs solved will be kept here and will be tagged as solved, repeated reports will be deleted without notice
  • Currently, my priority will be solving issues with the RPG Maker MV plugins. RPG Maker VX Ace scripts bugs might take longer to be solved, unless they are major issues.
  1. Minor Bug Report

    Maker version: RPGVXAce Version 1.02a
    Script: Terrain States v 1.02 (For RPG Maker VX Ace)
    Other Scripts used: None (Script tested on a new project)
    Error: No crashes but Script won´t work

    Problem:
    In line 141 to 144 the terrain_tag and region_id got mixed up

    def execute_floor_state
    setup_terrain_state($game_map.note, $game_player.terrain_tag)
    setup_terrain_state($game_map.tileset.note, $game_player.region_id)
    end

    Fix:
    Simply swap them

    def execute_floor_state
    setup_terrain_state($game_map.note, $game_player.region_id)
    setup_terrain_state($game_map.tileset.note, $game_player.terrain_tag)
    end

    PS: Awesome scripts Victor! I´m glad that I found your new Homepage. I was a little shocked after the old one went down.

      • Hi Victor,

        thanks for the update. After reconfiguration my map and tileset note tags, I found an issue with the states not triggering. It is a simple mix up like before.
        To fix the issue you need to change:

        Line 196: get_terrain_id($game_map.note, terrain_tag)
        change to: get_terrain_id($game_map.note, region_id)

        Line 202: get_terrain_id($game_map.tileset.note, ,region_id)
        change to: get_terrain_id($game_map.tileset.note, terrain_tag)

        I checked the script with only the Basic Module (v1.35) and terrain states (1.02) active. Now the region and terrain states are triggered.

    detailed info about the situation that caused the error.
    Attempted to use a Jump command upon a foe, and then it crashed.

    As a side note, it appears that Charge Attack is incompatible with Yanfly’s Battle Core and the Action Sequences, as it appears to not be able to charge while using the plugin, or actions.

    Like

    • Thanks for the report, i’ve made a small change on the Basic Module, update the module and tell me if your issue still happens.

      About the compatibility, i don’t know how the action sequences works, but if it overwrites the Window_Battlelog.startAction, then there is not much to be done. since the defaul behavior of this function is vital for the plugin to work. I will take a look if something can be done about that.

      Like

    • Ive made a small fix on the Charge Actions. In my tests it’s now working with the Battle Core, although the timing for adding/removing the charge state is different (not much can be done about it)

      • Ah. It’s a shame it doesn’t fully work, with the timing and all. But oh well, that’s how things are, I suppose.

      • Depending on your needs, this shouldn’t be a issue. Only on some corner cases this is actually relevant.

        Like

      • Well, despite the changes, it still seems as if the charge action won’t work, as if it never even makes the attempt to try to create the Charge State at all.

        It doesn’t even register on the Console on my end, but perhaps I should keep searching for the answer, or just give up.

        Like

      • It’s strange, I tested here with the Battle Core and the 3 Action sequences and it is working fine. Can you post your setup? Maybe there is something wrong with it, or maybe it is confliction with other plugin?

      • Sure!

        VE Basic Module 1.08
        VE Charge Actions 1.0

        This is as narrowed down as I got, and it still produces the error.

        Like

      • I this the order of the plugins on the Plugin Manager? If so, try placing the Charge Actions bellow the YF plugins. Sometimes the order of plugins is relevant, specially for those wich overwrite functions (such as the Battle Core does).

        I’m using 24 different images with all those digits. The total weight of all of them is 1,55 Mb. When you disable the SFonts plugin, there is no loading screen and the game works perfectly, so I think is a bug of that plugin.

        While my lag wasn’t heavy as yours, using your fonts really caused a freeze when starting the game (about 1-2 mins), this was because your fonts were bigger than the ones i used to test. with some being the triple size.
        Anyway, i’ve updated the plugin, check to see how things run for you. A minor freeze might still happens, but it shouldn’t last more than a few seconds.

  5. Bug report. Animated Battlers for MV…Version 1.0 worked totally fine with my game, but when I updated to 1.01 it stopped working in my game…It says “Undefined is not a Function”…and then when I use the debug console, it says that the error is on line 2117. When I go to that line of code I see this.updateMotionRefresh();

    It only works if I comment out that line. But of course the characters face the wrong way. It also has some compatibility issues with Yanfly Battle engine. Tried putting it above and below that script and got varied results..I went back to 1.0 because it’s what’s working for me at the moment..I did try it in a new game though and it worked fine. Not sure.

    -Plugin: VE_DualWield v1.03
    -Other plugins used:
    VE_BasicModule V1.21 (obviously)

    Plugin works great with one exception: If a Character equips 2 Weapons he instantly stops receiving TP with normal attacks. Still receipt the normal amount if defending or if nothing / shield is equipped in offhand.

    Neither a crash nor an Error message but for me who works greatly with Combat-Techs it greatly weakens a Character to a point that Dual wielding becomes useless.

    Hello Victor

    Thanks for this great Plugin, it works great with only one problem: as soon as I equip one of my Characters with two weapons he stops receipting TP’s for normal attacks. He still receipt some if defending or if hit by enemy or if he has only one weapon or a weapon with shield equipped.
    With this a Dual wielding Character could use much less Combat-Techs which makes Dual wielding rather useless ;-(
    FYI: I also tried “fixing” it by using Yanfly’s Plugin for alternative TP’ gaining but even there a Dual wielding Character was only gaining TP’s by defending or getting hit
