This is amazing! I'm so glad that I've found this plugin. I've been jealous of MZ for so long now wishing that MV had picture easing, but I didn't want to move my current projects to MZ. Now I don't have to! Really nice work here, the plugin works perfectly and it's super simple to use!

Hi there!

I'm glad you liked! :D

Have fun! ^^

I have run into one issue while trying to return ease of a picture to linear, it doesn't work, I get an error saying "TypeError. this[type] is not a function". How would I set a picture's movement back to linear after moving a picture without erasing the picture? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! ๐Ÿ˜

Hi there!

Can you send me a screenshot of your event command, setting an ease to a picture than trying change it to linear?

Or, a link to a sample project replicating the issue, so I can take a look?

Absolutely! Here's a screenshot of the full event. Within the red bracket is where the picture movement takes place and it works perfectly with cubic easing, waits for 30 frames the when I try to move the picture with linear easier, as soon as it runs that plugin command marked with white I get the error. Thanks! ๐Ÿ˜

I will only be able to take a look at it on Monday. But I believe you can remove the "Out" from the linear command.

By default other commands have the extra argument In or Out.

But Linear is only Linear. There is no LinearOut or LinearIn. So just remove the Out from linear and see what happens.

More picture movements are always a life-saver! 

Been experimenting and wanted to ask, can any of these provided functions be used to make the picture move in a spiral? (toward the center)

I'm working on a "Cauldron Brewing" Crafting scene where the selected Items/Ingredients are put onscreen as Pictures (Using the Text to picture plugin in RPGMZ DLC to make text/Icons into pictures) and then all swirl into the center of the Pot (like a whirlpool), and are then erased.

The Default 'move picture' commands are very limited, and even after trying to work with it I ended up with a very sharp and chopy diamond-like spiral T-T

With this I'm hoping a math function like sine/cos or some combination etc that might work to create a smooth inward spiral motion...

Hi there!

I never tried anything like that. And for sure, there is no plug-and-play function on my plugin to do what you want.  Using the ease functions, I believe you could achieve the picture to MOVE like that.  But you will have to make the calculations for that yourself...

Take a look at the plugin help file, and visit the website that shows all the ease functions. Maybe you can have an idea from there. I guess is just a matter of you taking into consideration the size of the picture and keep rotating(the X and Y coordinates) it around the screen, and slowly changing the coordinates until it reaches the center of the screen(or whirlpool).

Maybe, using the ease methods that have "circle" on their names you can try rotating the picture into four phases. Let's say your screen size is 816x624. So you move the picture into the following coordinates:

  1. X = 408 | Y = 0
  2. X = 816 | Y = 312
  3. X = 408 | Y = 624
  4. X = 0 | Y = 312

Now, each time you make the rotation above, you can add a plus value to the X and Y positions, so, it will take the picture closer to the center of the screen, each time it rotates.

Don't know if I manage to explain it right, but I guess doing it is better than saying... But I don't have that time now =/

Yeah, it was exactly like you said, it's all about moving the coordinates around the screen as they get closer and closer to the center!

Ended up sort of doing a rough sideways diamond pattern, using the SineIn easing effect. Kinda jank, but def works!

Thanks for all the wisdom as always!!

Nice! Glad I was able to help!

Have fun :)
