Need help using Battle Result Branch tool.

[SoldierofFate2680]

Ok, here's the scenario. I wanna set it up so the main character walks up to the next character to join the party and initiates a conversation. Then the new character challenges the Main Character to a battle to decide whether he'll join at that time.
Here's where I run into the problem. I have it set up for a Battle Result Branch. Victory, he joins! Loss, it recycles back to re-initiate the scenario. I have no clue where to pop in the "Battle(character)" option. With trial and error, even with victory... the scenario doesn't progress after the battle. No joining, no results... nothing!
Can anyone offer me a solution... in lamens terms if at all possible. I'm extremely a noob and it takes me a bit to figure out how all this fits together. Thanks in advance.

It should look like this:

Battle (Characters)
Win/Lose Branch
Win: He joins
Lose: Restore Party to Full Health


Add in the messages you need wherever, and that should work...

Re: Need help using Battle Result Branch tool.

You'd think it'd be that easy... here's my layout:

-Text
--Battle (Character) (setting is set that when you lose, it's NOT game over.)
--Battle Result Branch
----Win: Text, then Join Party and more text (this part works great)
----Lose: Text, move to Mode 2 (which moves back to mode 1).
--Branch End
-Text
The problem is the fact that every time I try to "force a loss" it does what it is supposed to do. Everytime I actually play the scenario through and the enemy wins by reducing my HP to 0, the game states my last text, fades to black, then I'm back at the menu (either the Editor Menu or the RPGM3 Menu depending on how I tried playing it). Has anyone gotten a Battle(character)/Battle Result Branch scenario to work? If so, can they detail it out on here so I can figure this out. I've tried too many fixes to list on here and I'm about to go nuts! I've tried just doing it like this:

-Battle (character)
-Battle Result Branch
--Win: Join (still works fine)
--Loss: Text
-Branch End.

Still fades to black. UGHHH!!

In the battle loss branch you have to add a party healing event code, otherwise you'll just get a game over.

You have to revive party members before you heal HP, otherwise they just stay dead.

I havent played RM3 in a while so you may not need a revive or a Display Off for characters that join.

Re: Need help using Battle Result Branch tool.

Oops, forgot about that. Doesn't full party heal revive?

Re: Need help using Battle Result Branch tool.

Im pretty sure it doesnt *shrugs shoulders*

I guess you'd be the one to know.

Re: Need help using Battle Result Branch tool.

I havent played RM3 in a while, so I may be wrong.

I need to start playing it again...

Re: Need help using Battle Result Branch tool.

If you use the full party heal (Don't know exact name) command it will revive and heal in one shot.

Re: Need help using Battle Result Branch tool.

Oh, ok thanks Lausen.


In your face JPS!!

Re: Need help using Battle Result Branch tool.

But Ive already stated three times that I may have been wrong...

Nonetheless, just take the Revive command out of my example

Re: Need help using Battle Result Branch tool.

Actually, JPS was right! I forgot that I had already tried the option of healing HP/MP because I removed it days ago. It wasn't doing me any good. Well, I overlooked the option "Revive Party". When you select it, it also gives you the options to heal up to "near death HP", "half HP", or "Full HP". Well, it fixed the problem... and I feel like an idiot. I knew that it was either a glitch (which I knew wasn't likely) or I missed a step somewhere. Either way, thanks for your help guys!
