Im putting out a Prototype Demo so you can download and play with this script a bit and I can get some feedback before a final release.

There is still quite a bit of work to be done on the back end. I've ended up having to use some custom DLLs and C++ code to make this thing as efficient as possible, and to do things that just are not possible in RMXP alone. I would like to make sure that this script still runs very smoothly on everyones machines so I can get a feel for how much optimization I have to implement. My box is just about top of the line so I cant judge performance on lower end machines very well, thus, I need your help to tell me how well this script works on your computers!

Now, as far as features go, I only have one major one to work on. Lightning! However, I'd like some feedback on how you think I should implement a Lightning System (not Lighting, Lightning). If you tap the SHIFT key, the screen will flash blue. But Im not sure I like it. Its just for effect and wont be in the final release. I had something going where Lightning would cause all shadows outdoors to fade out. I wasnt sure I liked that either. So the easy thing to do is ask you guys how you think a Lightning Flash should appear?
