FF Style Battle UI

This plugin will help you create a more retro-style battle system UI similar to games like FF4, and it is fully customizable! You can change the stat’s format displayed for each actor, including colour, placement, and values, and have it displayed however you want. If you want to show the default sprite gauges, that’s an option too. Simply disable the retro-style stats and enable the co-responding plugin parameters, and away you go. You can even use javascript for most of the plugin’s parameter values to further enhance customization.

Features

  •  Implement a more retro-style battle user interface for your games, with complete customization available.
  •  It supports all the default battle system types in the database (turn-based, time progress [active], and time progress [wait]).
  •  There are over 90 plugin parameter values for you to set, and you can use JavaScript for most of them.
  •  Display a more classic battle log with this plugin that displays only pertinent information to the player rather than every little detail.
  •  Skip the boring party command window at the start of battle so your players can get right down to business (or don’t).

Hello, I have tried out your plugin and really like it!  How do I disable the Attack skill from showing up entirely?  I don't want it to show at all on the battle log window.  Thanks!

Hello, thanks for supporting my work! I made an update to the plugin for you. You can now select skills you don't want to show in the battle log. Just add skills to the plugin parameter "Skill Exclusion List". This should help everyone who doesn't want to show basic skills like attack and guard.

Hey Dungeonmind... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE UPDATE!  That did it my friend.  I am happy to support your work!  I will be looking towards purchasing more plugins from you, this one is a dream come true!

Is there any way to reposition the damage popup, like make an offset option for it?  That way the damage can pop up higher, further back, etc.?

Also, is there a way to disable the rest of the battle UI completely (revert to original MZ on the actor/party windows, etc.), and only use just the FF Style battle log & damage popups?  I ask because I am in the middle of making my own custom Party Status Window.  Whenever I use an item or skill (heal) on a party member, I need to be able to use a different menu (I have 8 battlers and for some reason I cannot select with my keyboard which actor I want to heal, only with a mouse).

Hi Sabinremson,

You are most welcome for the update. Regarding your subsequent inquiry, it appears that this is currently beyond the scope of this plugin. I'm sorry about that.

Im sorry I do not mean to bug you I am willing to pay to separate the battle log into its own plugin from the rest of what you have.. Can you please contact me? My discord is Drakhan86.

Hi Sabinremson,

I may have some time next week to help you with this after my current commission. I will message you on discord!
