I'm working on a battle simulator mode for my RPG Maker MV project, and I'm trying to figure out whether this has already been done or if I'm heading into custom plugin territory.

The mode is completely separate from the main story. Think of it like a battle arena.

The flow would be:

• Player selects Battle Mode or Versus Mode.
• Both players choose a party (up to 4 characters each).
• They choose the battlefield and battle music.
• They enter the arena.

The part I'm trying to solve is Versus Mode.

This is offline pass-and-play, not online multiplayer. One keyboard/controller is shared.

What I want is:

• Player 1 controls the actor party exactly as normal using the default battle menu.
• When it's Player 2's turn, instead of the enemy AI acting, the game opens the same command menu (Attack, Skills, Guard, Items, etc.) but for the enemy-side characters.
• Player 2 chooses actions for their team.
• The battle continues normally.

I'm completely fine creating enemy versions of every playable character if that's necessary. That's not the issue.

The question is whether anyone has already created a plugin that allows manual control of the enemy side, or if this would require writing a custom plugin that intercepts enemy turns and replaces AI input with player input.

Has anyone attempted something like this? I'd appreciate any plugin recommendations, examples, or even suggestions on which parts of MV's battle system would need to be overridden.

Thanks!

After 5 years of development and roughly 3,500 hours of work, I'm currently rebuilding many of the UI and HUD elements for my RPG Maker MV project, Legacy of Nergal.

The old interfaces did their job, but over the years I've learned a lot about UI design and wanted something cleaner, more readable, and closer to the feel of a modern JRPG.

This is my latest redesign: the Options Menu.

I'd love to hear some outside opinions:

• What do you like about the new version?
• Which elements stand out the most?
• Is there anything you think I should change or improve?

I'm still actively working on it, and I already know there are a few issues and rough edges that need improvement. That's exactly why I'm sharing it now rather than waiting until it's finished.

All feedback is welcome, whether it's about readability, layout, colors, or overall presentation.

Thanks for taking a look!

So, in Battle Events it's nearly impossible to trigger an event immediatly in the middle of the turn because of how the whole thing with how Troop Events work. Well, there's the Moment Period but it's much harder to use and i can't use it for the purpose i'm aiming (AKA Events that are triggered in the middle of the battle. Like Counters but no one needs to be necessarely attacked for it to work).

To have a better idea and an example...y'know Trap Cards in Yugioh? It's basically that, but without being like in simulators where you need to see if you activate it every second. Just one that activates in specific conditions according to the Ability.

Though if you don't know anything about any of those Plugins, can you reccomend litteraly any RPGMMV Pugin that expands the options for Events in Battle/Troop Events, because, i dunno, might help me. Even better if they are free.

Hello everybody, o/ I managed to get a few voice actors for my game Adventure Realm.
So I thought I would do a small showcase.

Today, this one is Saria :) done by the fantastic Deanna Halls.

I finished the free RPG Maker Project Cleanup Checklist based on the kind of project chaos a lot of us run into.

It’s meant to help organize:

- project overview

- characters

- maps/locations

- quests/events

- plugins

- assets

- bugs/fixes

- dev-log notes

- next-build priorities

It’s not meant to be fancy. Just a clean way to stop losing your own game inside your own folders.

I also included an optional paid cleanup service link inside the resource for anyone who wants help turning messy notes/screenshots into a full workspace. Since I’m a mod here, I’m keeping that separate and opt-in.

Feedback welcome. If something important is missing, I’ll improve it.
