Close Alright, I purchased RPG Maker VX ACE through Steam's Promo the other day and now I'm sort of starting to put together the ideas that will make up the game. NOW...
Here are some things I have problem/need help.
IMAGERY:
As some of you know (who've played PM) each trainer appears during the beginning of the battle, then they slide out of the screen and launch a poke'ball.
Is there a way to upload a JPEG or BITMAP instead of the pixolish photos that plague RPG's?
BATTLE SCENES:
I've read that there is a way to have a video play as the background during a battle, is there a way of creating a loop video to play over and over (what I'm thinking, is video capture a natural landscape and play over and over, as if the battle were taking place in a field, mountain, town, city, beach).
DLC:
Is it possible to make add on content with VX ACE? I'm thinking of releasing the game in chapters and would very much like to have feedback to help steer me in the dirtection I should take as I make the next chapters.
There may be more questions coming soon, and I hope I'm not posting in the wrong forum section.
Thanks.

Wrong section, for one. Should be in the Help section. That said, answers~
1) Ace will use bmp, jpeg and png files just fine. You can add new pictures to the project in two ways. Add straight to the relevant folders - just find the graphics folder for that particular project and put the pictures in the relevant folders. Just realise that certain types of graphics require different sizes for the files. You'd want the picture folder, though, which should be fine, size wise.
The second way is to go into the actual program, choose the Resource Manager (there's a button for it in the top bar), click on the type you want to add and then import it by browsing where you saved the picture. When you do it this way you need to choose a colour that will be transparent.
2) Probably. You'd have to look around for a script that allows it, though.
3) You can always add more onto the project at any time, so basically, yes. You can have the players redownload the full file, or separate the edited files into a folder and tell the players to copy them to the project. Just remember to put them in their different folders to make it easier for the players to know where to put the files.

I'm sorry for the wrong forum section.... Yeah, should have seen the 'help forum'... (my bad)
For the DLC likeness, it's important that it needs to be an add on instead of a new full game (rpg format, so that characters' levels/powers/etc, will need to be saved and to continue.) so I'm guessing that it will only be released for those who have RPG Maker VX ACE then, as there doesn't seem to be another way to add the folder, unless there.... is?
I think I might be able to find the script again (I'll link it here)
Thanks, this answers quiet a bit. I think I might be able to find the script again.
Good (picture wise), I really was worrying about that :P
Thanks a lot, I'll be doing some preliminaries, which forum is for video game WIP's (work in progress)? Or is that frowned upon? Just used to costuming forums i guess :P
