For me personally, my issue is not so much the software as it is the pain in the ass scripting they went with, i find javascript far more confusing that RGSS3.
I had an easier time wrapping my brain around RGSS3.
Also the lack of plugins that SHOULD be there but are not are a BIG pain in the damn ass!
I wish to god Victor Saint was still around, he would do this software some damn justice (despite what others say about him).
I loved his animated battle system in Ace.
In RGSS3 there are "viewports" and the ability to use Z for layering, i could overlap windows even.. but javascript seems to lack it or not allow for it.
I'm having HELL making the scripting adjustments i'm trying so god damn hard to make.
Also... only 3 god damn frames per each F'ing post for the side view battlers?
What in the HELL?!
The side-view battle system seems half assed, and even with Yanfly's plugins, it's still not on par with what i had in Ace.
I can't get windows to F'ing overlap in the scripting!!
They refuse!
And instead, they do this odd thing where they .. "cut" into each other when you TRY and overlap.
Also they lied when they said there was no hidden classes, as i can't find classes for things.. i can't find everything.
I have searched all the scripts.
There's not even a way to customize the windows and how the freaking work in javascript!
It feels like a rushed, half assed mess!
There are plugins that i feel are still missing that showed up rather quickly in the community when Ace came out.
There is no damn fog scripts yet.
No Arrow Pointer script(a thing that points at everything in the menus).
Anyhow.. most of my problems will be solved once the plugin makers kick it into high gear and stop focusing on gameplay so much and focus on graphics effects and presentation more than gameplay.
My RPGs don't rely on gameplay, just presentation and visuals and story... and the plugins are just not there.
The damn battle system windows have NO god damn way at all the stop the windows at the bottom from sliding abck and forth, i'm trying to make it more like the old FF games, more stationary!
But the window for stats and such keep moving left and F'ing right!
I keep trying to adjust everything i can think of to make it stop!
AND IT WON'T STOP!!!!!
JS is going to make me have a god damn stroke with how damn frustrating it is!!
Ugh..... just.. ugh.. ~_~
