[ANSWERED] Beginner Plugin Bundle – Demo Integration and ARPG Compatibility

Hello,

I bought the Beginner RPG Maker Plugin Bundle on itch.io, and it looks really good with lots of useful features. I really appreciate that there are demos included, as well as a help guide to learn how to use them.

However, I was wondering if in the future it would be possible to have a single demo that combines all the plugins working together, instead of having them separated? For beginners like me, the biggest challenge is figuring out how to properly integrate them.

Also, I’d like to ask if the ARPG plugins have any known compatibility issues with other popular plugins, such as VisuStella. That way I can avoid buying something that may not work together.

Thank you very much!

Hello!

First of all, thank you for getting Beginner Plugin bundle. 🙏

A master demo for the Beginner bundle is definitely on my to do list. I've planned working on it at the beginning of this month.

For RPG Maker Action Combat compatibility with VisuStella, it's the same as every other plugin; you'll never know until you test them yourself. If VisuStella has a plugin that modifies the same function that Action Combat also uses, then conflict will happen, and if it happens, I wouldn't know a way to fix it because VisuStella plugins are locked/obfuscated. So I can't say what'd work and what wouldn't, unfortunately.

Thank you for the support! I might bother you for a few more days until I manage to fully understand and set up the plugins together. I’m currently using the ARPG base (Hendrix RPG Maker Action Combat MZ v1.53) as the foundation to combine the plugins. So far, it has been relatively easy to set up.

However, I couldn’t get the Pictures UI Creator MZ (v1.1.0) (Demo) to work on top of that base. On its own it works fine, but when I add it to the ARPG system, the common events and image folders don’t seem to function correctly (and yes, I did change switches, variables, and image numbers so they wouldn’t conflict with the base system).

The other plugins only needed small adjustments and customizations (which I expected), and overall they worked well together with the ARPG plugin as the base. I still need to test the helper mage plugin, but so far the only one I’ve had trouble with is the Pictures UI Creator.

Once I finish combining the plugins I want, I’ll also test them with VisuStella, Moghunter, and some of my own plugins that I use in other projects. If you could give me any advice about the Pictures UI Creator issue, I’d appreciate it. It’s not a priority, since the main plugins from the bundle are working very well together so far.

Thanks again for the support, and I hope I’m not bothering you too much. Please also excuse any mistakes in my English, as it’s not my native language.

Oh, if you need any support, please visit Discord and create a question there. Discord has a notification system that will tell me when you ask, so I can provide answers much quicker compared to itch.io; it's in real-time as well. 

For Pictures UI Creator, it should work well with Action Combat, it basically doesn't do anything when you enable it and you don't need to copy or create any new folders. You simply use default Pictures folder of RPG Maker. I also recommend using version 1.3.0 instead of the version from the demo. That demo is very dated. 

So, looking forward to supporting you via Discord :D
