Stacking pictures

[johanesgroon]

How do you draw bitmaps in MV????? seriously...
Can you stack, like... 3 pictures then make it appear on a certain tile on the map????

Are you talking about parallax mapping where you have multiple layers?

I mean above map floor but below characters

The plugin TDDP_BindPicturesToMap.js allows you to stack as many pictures as you want and it can be binded above the map floor but below characters (That's a link straight to it by the way).

1. Download it and install it by putting the JS file into your JS > Plugins folder.
2. Turn plugin ON in the Plugin Manager.
3. Create a new event on a map and display your pictures (For example pictures 1,2 and 3).
4. For every picture you display, put a plugin command and type BindPictureToMap # below_characters, where # is the number of your picture (For example BindPictureToMap 1 below_characters , BindPictureToMap 2 below_characters , BindPictureToMap 3 below_characters ).

then make it appear on a certain tile on the map????

If you set the coordinates X,Y of the pictures before you bind them, they will stick to the certain tile you want. Just remember each tile is 48x48 big so multiply that by the number of tiles you wish to place them on. I highly recommend you keep the pictures and the map relatively the same size, or at least have the image be smaller than the map. Otherwise you will have to do trial and error with size adjusting the pictures.

The above script is great for parallax mapping, but I believe it would require some manipulation to achieve "bind picture to tile"... this would work but pictures can be limiting.

Yanfly might have the solution you are looking for.
