DragonBone Message | Rpgmaker Plugin
A downloadable asset pack for Windows
6 Jan 2025
UPDATE: Fixed issue with loading a save
This plugin has been completely upgraded for best, it's now give you these features:
- Show unlimited amount of DB portraits at once
- Change animation/ DB sprite while message is typing
- Allow you to pause message until animation(s) finished playing
- Portraits can be fade/ slide/ mirror
* It's not necessary to be an animated portrait, you can use static image and do some small edit to achieve great effects such as breathing/ blinking portraits.
* Compare to traditional method of display pictures, this plugin has an advantage that can't be achieved otherwise, it allow you to change picture during message is typing.
Also it's easier for management since every picture(s) can be included in a single DragonBone file.

Hello! I recently bought this plugin, and testing it I found 2 errors:
1.- When I save the game and load it, I get an error screen if I talk with a character that uses this plugin portrait animation for the messages. I tested this with my game and the demo project you provided. Both of them give this error.
This screenshot is from your demo project:
And this one is from my game:
The error text is pretty similar.
2.- When I use the "show DB alone" option in your demo project, save the game, and load it, the DB animation doesn't appear anymore. Neither on the screen nor in the messages when I talk with the character.
Hi, sorry for late reply. I will investigate the issue and get back to you asap

Hi Isadomon, thank you for your compliment. It was because many people prefer to use Rpgmaker for making VNgame than using VNMaker. Rpgmaker have bigger community, you find support easier, you can include battle, exploration into your game compare to VNMaker that only focus on textbased. =)
yes, it is true, but i bealive is cleaner
Visual novel maker is also a bit buggy and tends to crash, and takes time to learn.
huh, i didnt knew that part. thanks you a lot fellow
