I don't see the community_basics plugin already there in MZ. Any advice on where to install it?
Hey, other users have reported this problem. Apparently the MZ version does not have that plugin by default. What I recommend you to do is to use a plugin that is useful in our circumstance, that is to change the resolution of the game window, you will find many online created by our fantastic community :)
@@sidemv Thanks, that’s helpful! :)
@@sidemv i was wondering if you have a link for the plugin? thank you for the video btw!
whoa LOL.... I came here curious about this and holy crap I'm in the video LOL. thanks for this kind of video tho. I had to figure out a lot of this on my own and being really clueless at first, it took a while. also thanks for showing Panic Attack! as an example of this kind of stuff. I just wanted to infuse some of my favorite genres together, aka Fighting, Rpgs, and Beat 'Em Ups. Galv's Layer plugin is a LIFESAVER. I HIGHLY recommend it if you're trying to do this.
Hey Zerobeat! It's a pleasure to have you here! Panic Attack truly has its own style! congratulations for your excellent work.
I agree, Galv is probably a sort of messiah for us lovers of the sidescroller genre, his plugins solved most of my rpg maker problems ;)
thanks! I've tried my best to give my game it's own look. and yeah, Galv's plugins in general have been super helpful. especially the layer one. keep it up with these tutorials!
I'm here from r/RPGMaker! Pencil, paper, ready to learn! 💙📝
Sameee
i love the voice I feel like im being told to carry out a secret mission
Super excited to follow along. Congrats on the channel re-launch!! This is gonna be a huge video!
i plan on making a side scroller game that ive been mapping out for a while, so glad to have found this channel! very much looking forward to all of your videos when they happen
THIS IS AMAZING, YOU'RE AMAZING. THANKYOU FOR MAKING THIS TUTORIAL, I HOPE YOU CONTINUE THE SERIES!!
this video and the tutorial is such high quality, I'm in love. the art style too! honestly everything is just gorgeous. good job and thank you!
Oh my god this is so helpful, thank you for this tutorial! It's a crime how few views your videos have gotten, but let me assure you that every one of us appreciates your efforts!
The level of production value in this channel is unbelievably incredible for a tutorial channel. Keep it coming dude. We're counting on you!!
thank you so much! i wanted to try making a side scroller in RPG maker for a while now but couldn't find any good tutorials on how to do it. you're literally a life saver
I've been thinking of making a side-scroller rpg project, so this is quite handy! Thanks for providing us with these scripts and demos! If I didn't look at this first I would gone about it in the silliest way.
OMG ive been doing a similar method to what you outlined in the video but never knew how to change the screen size, this is a huge lifesaver! you're doing incredible work, have an amazing day!!
This series is great bro, exactly what I've been looking for
Cant wait for the next tutorials! I am so hyped to try this new approach!!❤
TIP: if the screen tint doesn't apply to your character sprite for some reason (like the screen is dark behind the character but the character is still visible), you can try to change character transparency to on in the autorun event on your load map and then turn it off in the event on your main map. idk why the tint screen was doing that for me but this worked in a way.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS
I've been looking for a tut for well over a year to make one of these (I'm still really bad at understanding this program but this is super lovely TToTT
IT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR ! Keep going 🙌🙌🙌
pretty cool with the layering, I will have to check out these plugins
this tutorial is sick!!
thank you so much for the asset and the tutorial video! You helped a lot!!!!
This is great excited to learn this new skill and for more tutorials!
Super helpful video, thank you so much!
Ey fam! I'm really thankful for this very helpful video of yours and hoping for more soon.
Keep up the good work!
This is perfect omg!!! Thank you for making these videos!!!!!!!!
Thats exactly what I needed for my game !! thanks alot!
Bro, how do you not have at least 50k subs? This is FIRE!
yes! this is the content I've been looking for
ooh! sounds like a fun way to mix it up! thx for the info ill be sure to binge
This is amazing. I cannot wait for more.
Thank you very much, God Bless you and GALV.
This is super dope dude. I'll have to come up with a fun side scroller idea.
your channel came at the right time! I look forward to new videos! (sorry for my english, I'm from another country)
I'm currently working on a tactical RPG on MV, and this plugin looks awesome for another project I already have on mind.
I've always loved this plugins that make your game looked in a completely different engine, but still keeping the simplicity of RPG maker
good luck with your projects! but you can still do side games like that with the original one, just use parallax to draw your map and bind to picture plugin for the other layer, lock the player movement up and down
Omg most helpful and detailed video , thank you so much
Oh wow! I cant wait to experiment!
Need the next part for the animations ♥ this helped sm
I got blessed by god finding this tutorials. Thank you man this is awesome!
:nervous_laugh: Simple. Yeah. ^_^" Well, maybe if I watch it a couple more times, it'll sink in.
It all seems very straight forward, but it feels like a lot. Still, worth trying, and thank you for the vid series. I'm sure it will be very helpful. ^_^
Eagerly awaiting the next video.
Now we know how to do an UnderHero type game
you're a godsend dude
This looks like a fun project ooooo baby I'm in
THIS IS REALLY HELP ME, THANK YOU SO MUCH I'LL WAITING FOR YOUR NEXT VIDEO SIR👀
все получилось как у вас, спасибо большое, ждем новые уроки!
Wheres the animations video you promised XD
Just teasin ya haha, amazing videos! Thank you for your knowledge!!!
Pretty sweet!
I'm trying to make games for hobby, from 0
Thankyou for making this video!
It's the gravity/falling aspect that's the most conflicting. Everything else is pretty easy.
Happy to hear you didn't have any issues with the tutorial! Gravity and falling is something we'll implement later on, thanks to a special plugin, stay tuned ;)
btw your art is awesome
Well done!
simplemente un genio!
Wow, well, thank you!
I don't see a folder called "Layers" in img, i see Parallaxes.
The parallax folder has side_TestMap in it which is the same image but the image isn't lined up
the same way as cleanly in the video it's out of alignment when the character walks so they slightly float above it and also
when I set the character to load in via the loadmap i get a Loading error when i run the game that says it failed to load: img/layers/side_TestMap.png
Edit: I just wasn't aware I had to manually make a layers folder, so I pulled it from the provided files and it should be fine now
Awesome vid, I look forward to more! Would it be possible to have a top down overworld, *and* side scrolling sections in say, dungeons?
I mean sure probably but you'd have to make both using different plugins somehow
Having sidescroller game sections and other topviews in the same project is totally possible. One mechanic does not exclude the other. To switch from a Sideview map to a Topview you just have to change the spritesheet of the character and deactivate the Galv Character Animation plugin using the appropriate plugin command, then place your character on a classic rpg maker style map and you're good to go! Remember to reactivate the Galv plugin when you later return to a sideview map ;)
this is super impressive, Im only recently getting interested in making rpgmaker games. Im curious if traveling on the overworld can be the standard rpg maker look, but going into towns can transition you into this gameplay style?
Did you figure it out? I'm curious
Im ready!! Next video pls!
I'm working on it ;)
Can you make a tutorial on how to make a moving background like in Earthbound while in battle ?
I need it!!!
I'm using the trial version of RPGMZ and it doesn't appear to include the community basics plugin. I accidentally copied it over from my RPGMV game file and it completely broke the game. Just an error message popping up whenever I tried to load it. I was wondering what I had done wrong since I followed your tutorial to a T. Not sure what to do without it since I'm having a hard time finding an equivalent for RPGMZ.
i like cars they're cute
This is really cool is it possible to use this for Games you want to sell on steam?
tileset? or just draw your maps and use then as parallax, use bind picture to map to make the other layer, is easier if you know a little how to draw, big tileset is hard to find
Hi, I followed the tutorial word for word but every time I try to run the game it immediately gives me the error:
ReferenceError
ImageCache is not defined
Do you know what might be causing this? (I'm using MZ not MV)
Hello,
Great channel
How can I get the template to work on MZ?
Hey sidemv , when is the next tutorial on layers. As I am a bit stuck on the layer priority. Awesome work though
You will have new info on the next video soon ;)
I have a question... why aren't you using the LAYER command from within the map properties of your map1 instead of creating an extra map just to use the plugin call? Is there a reason for that?
There are two methods of loading layers on map 1, and one of them is what you say. the reason I wanted to include a separate map is because since you have multiple maps in your game, it is much more convenient to have a single map loading layers in the game. However, in the next video dedicated to mapping, I will go into detail about this topic.
can you use dragon bones puppets with this too?
thank you for the tutorial! unfortunately my RPG maker MV (mac) keeps crashing randomly, do you know if the plugins and everything work in MZ? coz I'm thinking if it'll work better on it
The plugins used in the tutorial are also available in MZ versions, you can find them on Galv's site :)
@@sidemv thank you! it works :D
awesome tutorial btw, just for some reason rpgmaker mz isn't letting me run the autoevents properly (character still loaded on starting point) and the parallax doesn't work as well. I've followed this video to a t and retried on new project files.
Were you able to get the parallax background to work in MZ? I've tried about everything I could think of.
Cool, there's a bug... how to fix flickering I mean... when character stop to walk, for a frame or 2 it vanish then re appear... there's a way to fix?
My advice is to copy and paste the 3 idle frames in the spaces dedicated to the up and down directions, in order to avoid flickering problems related to the fact that those two directions do not yet have animations. This should work, let me know ;)
does anyone knows where to find a character sprite sheet similiar to the one found in this video? i cant find a character sprite sheet with the action left, right, jump and crouch,with the character been a kid
I'm working on a little 2D platformer type project so I want to be able to jump and move onto higher platforms, however the blank background is acting as a floor and my character just ends up walking on it. Any idea on how to make it just background so that my character can jump over and fall through back only the platoform?
Hey Fuabba, what you're aiming to do isn't possible with the plugins mentioned in the video. You'll need Tomoaki's jump action to implement physics in the game world. Check it out and let me know ;)
@@sidemv gotcha. I'll check it out, thanks
hey, what does it mean when the files dont have the same names as the video?
The only two files you have to pay attention to are the tileset Inside_A5, which must have exactly this name, and the name the layer you put in the layers folder, which must have the same name as the layer you enter in the galv command "layer graphics."
Is there any way I can get in contact with y’all? I can’t seem to get my customer character to…not float…
You can join us in our dusty office! We have a discord server: SideDustyOffice ;)
Could you do a hybrid game that is parts top-down JRPG standard like RPG Maker and some maps Side-scrolling?
Of course you can ;)
why when i import my own sprite is not big like yours? mine got crop. :(
What's the size of your map and the resolution of your screen?
Hello this video is amazing! But I can't find the Community Basic in plugins..
I'm following the tutorial, but using MZ. It looks like the Community_Basic plug-in settings are found in Tools > Database (F9) > System 2. Just one of the differences between MV and MZ, I think.
Hopefully, this helps.
@@wraserit was very helpful. Thank you so much!!❤❤
I feel like a nimrod, but I cannot seem to get the map paralaxing to work properly in RPG Maker MZ. I've tried every way I could to get the plugin command to work as it's shown here, but for some reason, the paralaxing background never seems to actually work. Is there something different you have to do for MZ?
Try writing me the command you are using as it is, so I can take a look ;)
@HauntLich Was the parallax layer not changing from black in your case? That's what was happening for me (but I wasn't careful enough--I missed setting the Trigger to Autorun.) Not sure if that's what you mean, or were you having trouble with activating the Layers plug-in? I noticed the version for MZ is different than for MV.
Can you use all the plug ins and stuff on an ipad
Hello! Love the video but i do have a problem, I did everything the same to make the background move, but it doesn't work for me. I added the plugin and the same command as in the video. It just doesn't work for me 😢
Sorry to hear that :( What version are you using?
I'm using the latest version, I just bought the software a couple of days ago, so i might just be using the things wrong i'm not sure :'( @@sidemv
I see, many of you have had this issue using that plugin on MZ. Since I don't have that version of the program, I strongly suggest reading the plugin's instructions, and making sure the plugin commands match those in the tutorial. If not, try adjusting them. Sorry I can't give you a more precise answer :/
Maybe I should get that ElevenLabs sub...
Hello! Thank you for the great deal.
After watching the video, I tried to copy one by one, but the last layer was not applied.
Can you think of any part of my mistake? 😂😂
When you enter the plugin command to load the layer, be careful that the map ID matches the one where you will transport the player. Another important thing is the ID of the layer itself, if you insert multiple layers make sure it has a unique ID. Let me know if it helped :)
im i the middle of the tutorial but for some reason, when i test it, it appears my gray character being followed by 3 little guys, can someone help, please ?
I'm curious if SideMV or any else can answer my question, but do these plugins and steps work in RPG Maker MZ?
The plugins mentioned are also available for mz version, you can find them on galv site ;)
@@sidemv Sweet! Thank you
Can I just put this side scroller gameplay in some specific maps of the game while the other worlds is still normal rpg maker experience?
You sure can! Just remember to change the character sprite, and proper tiles ;)
@@sidemv Thanks a lot for your turtorials ! Although I have to say that I am using your great knowledge in a.... nsfw project... yeah... sorry about that
Can you mix side scroller and overhead view modes
Of course! Make sure you have disabled the Fixed Direction Horizontal plugin; otherwise, the sprite sheet will keep facing sideways. Also, remember to change the sprite sheet when changing the map ;)
I don't have "community_basic" plugin I looked all over and I just can't find it
if anyone has some advice Id be glad to here it
If you're using the MZ version, you can just grab any plugin that lets you tweak the screen size. You might wanna check out Yanfly's plugins :)
I followed the tutorial step by step but whenever I transfer the player to the loadmap I just get a black screen?
You should transport the player to the test map "MAP001", my dear ;)
'trust me this will be easy' - gets to 6:30
After test running my game, it appears as a black screen and nothing happens. Is there a fix for this? since all of it is just blank, My plugin script is correct, all the assets are correct. im not sure what I am missing
Nevermind! i figured out a way to fix it, I just had to run my character on map 1, thanks for the tutorials btw :D
nvm again, i missed a step! thanks a lot
Where do you get the community basic plug-in ?
I'm following the tutorial, but using MZ. It looks like the Community_Basic plug-in settings are found in Tools > Database (F9) > System 2. Just one of the differences between MV and MZ, I think.
Hopefully, this helps.
thanks dude! i was trying to figure this out @@wraser
When i try to open the Sidescroller templste It just keeps telling me cannot open package.json
The template is only available for the MV version so make sure you use the right version of RPGM ;)
for some reason, i dont have the community basic plugin, I am using RPGmaker MZ and I'm quite new to it so I am not sure how it works, could anyone help me? Is it possible to download it, and where do I get it from? it would be a great help if someone helped...THANK YOU SO MUCB ;-;
Hey Savelix! The Community Basic plugin is only default in the MV version. For MZ, I'd recommend using a Yanfly plugin that lets you modify the screen size. Actually, any plugin that allows game window resizing will be fine ;)
I knew the boice sounded a bit too autonomous
What do you mean? My voice is PerfeCTLy NorMaL * high frequency glitchy sounds *
Does this work with mz?
Of course! The two mentioned galv plugins have been adapted to MZ by its creator.
"PromoSM" 😓
Nice tutorial, but please use your own voice instead of trash AI generated voices.
Naw this voice is very clear and clean and direct. It makes it very easy to follow along while forcing somebody that isn't comfortable with voicing the project would be bad.
