Battle Music Eliminator - Guardian - 10-03-2009

This is a script I made recently for a side project.  It's incredibly simple, but I thought I'd post it here, anyway. :P  What it does is eliminate the battle music on maps of your choice so that the map background music will continue playing instead.

There are three versions: All Battle Music Eliminator, which completely gets rid of the use of battle music, Battle Music Eliminator, which lets you choose which maps the effect takes place on, and Reverse Battle Music Eliminator, which lets you choose which maps the effect won't take place on (it'll work on all other maps).  Instructions in headers.  Enjoy!

Questions and Answers
Q: Can you make this for XP?
A: No.  Sorry, but it would be a completely different script and I only made this one because I needed it.

Q: It's not working/there's an error!
A: Write down what error (if you're getting an error) you're shown and post it.  This edits a couple of classes that could be used in other scripts (especially battle system scripts), so there's probably a compatibility problem.  If you think there's a compatibility error, you'll need to contact the maker of your other script(s).  I'm presenting this "as-is", which basically means I'll fix problems with this script but I'm not going to spend my time making it compatible with other scripts.

Q: Can you do such-and-such/make a similar script?
Probably not.  I'm pretty new to scripting, but you can post your suggestion and I'll let you know what I'm capable of (or maybe someone else can help if they see the suggestion).

This would be somewhat easier with events

Battle Music Eliminator - Alpha-Mad - 10-08-2009

I'm not sure this is possible with events. I'm not entirely sure about VX but in XP, you can't just eliminate the battle music and have the map music play through. If this is the case with VX, then this is a great script. Wish I had it for XP Laughing

Battle Music Eliminator - Guardian - 10-08-2009

No, this isn't possible to do with events. Trust me, I always check that first. XD You can do the basic - turn off the battle music, but you can't make the background music keep playing. Here's the battle call from Scene_Map:
Code:
def call_battle
    @spriteset.update
    Graphics.update
    $game_player.make_encounter_count
    $game_player.straighten
    $game_temp.map_bgm = RPG::BGM.last
    $game_temp.map_bgs = RPG::BGS.last
    RPG::BGM.stop
    RPG::BGS.stop
    Sound.play_battle_start
    $game_system.battle_bgm.play
    $game_temp.next_scene = nil
    $scene = Scene_Battle.new
  end
Those RPG::BGM.stop and RPG::BGS.stop can't be changed via events; they're built into the system. In my script I just commented those lines out and, for the ones where you choose the maps, added a conditional branch.

I may look into doing it for XP in the future, but for now I've only got the VX version. Winking with a tongue sticking out
