Enemy faces during battle..

[dudydudeman15]

How can I make the faces of the enemy i am fighting show during a battle, on the top. This way, the faces of the heroes would be on the bottom while the faces of the enemy is on the top. Also, i want to have 3 different expressions of the same face that changes. For example, the face would change when he is hit for a few seconds, and a different face shows up when he attacking. Sorry, it's kinda hard to explain.
Any help will be greatly appreciated..
Thanks.

Can't be done in the DBS. You could make background images with the face copy/pasted onto it, but that's about it.

[dudydudeman15]

oh...
well can i just do the same but only for the hero faces?

[Meiscool-2]

It doesn't matter what kinda of face, hero or villian, it can't be done unless you use the battle background images.

Im pretty sure you could do it with pictures.....
but the amount of retarded coding involved would be, well...
retarded.

And having the facial change for a 'few seconds' I think would be alltogether unfathomable for me..coding wise. Id have to agree with meis there.....

You could have a picture that shows, for the monster graphic, and have that picture changew when a certain HP is reached...

But  Id figure out something better, if I were you.
Sounds like more work than its worth.

Are you using the Default Battle System (DBS) or your own Custom Battle System (CBS)?

You cannot show pictures during the DBS, only battle animations and backdrops.

Animating the hero faces in the default battle system is doable, but it's not worth it, since you have to do every attack command manually.

This is why I love custom battle systems

[dudydudeman15]

well im not a fan of work so i guess i'll just use something else.
Thanks for the help guys.

You could make the face part of the battle animation for a characters weapon. The face would only show up when you attacked, but it would still be kinda cool if you executed it right.

For the record.....

As soon as you tweak the DBS, its NO LONGeR A DBS
Think about it.....

There is no way to do ANYTHING with the DBS aside from what is layed out....

so for one to say  

"you cant do that in the dbs"

its kindof like statinf the obvious to make yourself sound smarter. like:

"The moisture in the air is just water"

it just sounds stupid.

[Meiscool-2]

It's still the default battle system regardless of what you do to it, hence it's still DBS. Frankly, your logic sucks.

[plightofthepureblood]

if you alter ANYTHING
its no longer DEFAULT.
it is then CUSTOM.


my logic is ineffable.
Your logic is twisted to support arguments.

If the battle system is still in the default format, it is the default system, no matter how many pictures you add to it. If the system you use to fight is the turn based active time battle system that comes with the program, its the default battle system.

I'm not even using the Mechanics of the DBS...and I STILL believe it's the DBS.

Agree with the Almost Banned Guy and the Sandwich.
