Thank you for responding!

I disabled all the other plugins just to be sure but it continues not to work.

I don't really have any experience with debugging so bear with me if possible... Pressing F12 when I'm in the F8 debug menu while focused on the dev tools or the game does nothing which is strange as I thought it was supposed to reset the game.

I'm not sure what you mean by pointing the plugin list at the Pro version, could you elaborate?

By Example command, I meant the one in the help file(I obviously made a lillypad event):

Example:

PlayFocusedSE Frog event=Lillypad volume=80 fadeDistance=5 fadeRate=10

- as in it's not that I wrote it wrong. Please let me know if you need any more info.

This is the F8 menu, hopefully helps a bit.

Sending plugin list just to be sure...

Thank you again.

Sorry, I meant F8. Mixed up my commands.

That at least points me in the right direction, but I don't see the error on my side. Perhaps something got corrupted in your download. Can you open the plugin in a text editor and look for the line that defines the playFocusedSound function? It'll be line 155, the one flagged in the first picture. It should look like this:

AudioManager.playFocusedSound = function(xCoord, yCoord, args, type, eventId = -1) {

If that's not what you see, let me know what you do.

And if the plugin is corrupted, try downloading it again.

Hi, I downloaded the plugin again and no luck so far, same goes for the line in the .js file - It's precisely as you wrote it. Can't really think of anything to do to be honest. :/

Edit: small progress since i accidentally clicked the plugin in file explorer

---------------------------

Windows Script Host

---------------------------

Script: C:\Users\Adam\Documents\Games\fuckass\js\plugins\Jay_FocusedSoundEffectsPro (3).js

Line: 155

Char: 78

Error: Expected ')'

Code: 800A03EE

Source: Microsoft JScript compilation error

---------------------------

For some reason the part after eventId is being troublesome it seems.

If i try to delete the part after EventId, it results in another error on the line 264 char 46.

I am So confused

I get the same error when I double-click on the file, but that's now how plugins are supposed to be used anyway. It sounds like your version of RPG Maker's JavaScript interpreter doesn't recognize default parameters... but why it wouldn't I can't begin to fathom, as I've never had that problem.

Alright guess it doesn't matter and I'll just try and work around it, I dunno, still can't believe that this is the only plugin that's done that so far with plenty others.

Hey I was wondering if this is an issue, do you think I would have problems with your other plugin - soundtrack manager for RPGMV? Really would prefer not to waste my money but I cannot find these things anywhere else.

Idk how refunds are handled either here but that's not all that important... Really appreciate your support

Soundtrack Manager has no default parameters in its functions, so you likely wouldn't see this particular issue - at least, if in fact I correctly understand what the issue is. For the record, Dualtechs and Actor Icons don't have default variables either. Battle VA Manager does, though.

I could rewrite the plugin to avoid the default parameter issue when I have the time, but it's weird it's happening in the first place. And if you want a refund instead of an alternate version, then... I don't know how itch.io handles it or if it even does, but I can try to look it up.

I'd love an alternate version that would work, that'd be amazing, I didn't know that was an option though, I'd be willing to pay a bit extra too since I'm bothering you so much and you don't even have to do this for me - sorry! Thanks again for being so helpful.

I don't know how we'd go about contacting each other at that point , because sorting this stuff out through comments here is janky but basically I'm okay with anything since there isn't a DM feature in itch it seems(I think)

If I'm right about the problem being default parameters, then it's certainly possible; default parameters are just a shortcut. As for communication, I'm on Discord, same user name as here (don't abuse that fact, please). Or I could just put it as an alternate download; if you've already paid you should still have access. While looking over the Pro plugin, I did notice a little bit of silly redundancy - unrelated to any problems you're having - that I should probably remove in the "main" version anyway.

The alternate download would be just fine for me. Thank you.
