Introduction

You can use the notetag <BattleFace> to change the face graphic of a battler depending on state. More states will be added as time goes on. See the Notetags section for more information.

Notetags
Actor
<BattleFace state: index, graphic>
State is the actor's current state in battle. See the states section for more info.
Index is the index of the face in the faceset. It starts at 0 and goes to 7 by default. The first face in a faceset is 0 and the last one is 7.
Graphic is the filename of the faceset to use for this face. It must be located in the img/faces folder.
BattleFace States
The following states are valid:
Inputting - When the actor is selecting a command
Waiting - When the actor is waiting to act after selecting a command.
Undecided - When the actor has not yet chosen an action this round.
Â
If using an ATB, the following additional states are available:
Casting - When the actor is casting a skill.
FAQ
1. Why doesn't your plugin support changing Yanfly's ATB gauges?
A. Right now, the function that Yanfly uses to draw their ATB gauges has quite a bit of calculations in it that their plugin uses to draw the gauge appropriately. In order for me to draw the gauges how I want, I would need to copy this entire function into my plugin and update it every time Yanfly releases an update.
