Quigon's Battleback Emporium

So, I've looked around a few RPGVX related sites and came to the conclusion that there aren't many RTP inspired battlebacks, just the same ol' RPGVX or RM2K3 ones, or everyone's favorite swirly background effect. In order to combat this odd lack of battleback resources, I have decided to make my own, for you all to share

There aren't many as of yet, so calling it an emporium may be a little much, but I'm making mine as I go along with my game, so hopefully they'll start a'popping out soon.

I'll take requests, but I'll keep it to three at a time and for members with at least thirty post counts. The reason for this is purely because I have university stuff to get cracking on with this month and the next, so I might be a bit busy. So, apologies if your battleback takes a little longer. It will be done, however.

Also, can we keep it to one battleback per request please? I do have my own to make/game to keep going with/university. Thanks!

Anyway, here's what I need to make a battleback for you.

- Battle system being used.
- Battle viewtype being used.
- Description
- Picture (this is purely optional, but if you give me a screeny of the general look of the battleback, it'll probably help me get it done quicker)

And that's all! Anyway, here's what I got so far.

Original Battlebacks

Forest - For BEM 3/4 View

Spoiler:

Wrecked Basement - For BEM 3/4 View (note - this one's better suited for just two characters)

Spoiler:

Dirt Cave - Being used for BEM 3/4 View, but could possibly work ok with sideview as well.

Spoiler:

Cavern - For BEM front-view with actors - though could possibly be used for default battle system too.

Spoiler:

Grassy Cave - Being used for BEM 3/4 View, might work for sideview.

Wow, this is pretty good for a first time. Good job!
I think the vines look fine here.

Personally, I'd put a black->transparent gradient over the floor, and set the opacity to about 40%, but that's me XD

Thanks! I'm gonna make a few more today I reckon, then if people are like 'mmm' i'll open a shop, perhaps. I'll give the gradient a go as well

[The JJ]

That's beautiful, Great job.

[CrayDragon]

This is amazing!

Nice background btw. :3

it's pretty easy, i just snapshot it with print screen then skew it on photoshop

and thanks JJ

[Reisen]

You used the mode7vx script =0?

[phlim2]

You used the mode7vx script =0?

lol, no.
it's pretty easy to do. :3 make a flat image, then use "Skew" in photoshop to extend the bottom two corners out :3

[Riokogen]

Wow that is really good! Better than what I could do I'd say :3

Do more!!!

[jdmls729]

Looks great.
What battle engine will you be using?
Melody? Tanketai? Reedo?

[Night Wolf]

I think quigonkeichy is using melody, or at least that what I thought from his screenshot on the screenshot showcase thread.

I really do like these battlebacks, they come out really nice.

[quigonkeichy]

@jdmls729 & night wolf

yeah, i'm using melody. the one's that i'm making are for 3/4 view as well. i dunno if they'd work out too good in sideview, you're welcome to try though. when i do make some more i might open a shop though, so i'll probs end up making some sideview ones too

[quigonkeichy]

Post updated! Added another three battlebacks and now taking requests!

[phlim2]

Those new backgrounds look great! I'll be crediting you for the "Dirt Cave" one.

Here's my request:

Background: Deep forest
Type: Side-view
Sky-height: 140px (This is the space between the top of the screen and the floor)
Sky: Night Sky
Screen Size: 640x480
Details: Lots of trees, almost impossible to see the sky.

XD Thanks. I'm not sure if I'd be able to build one for the complex Melody system though. D:
