Hi, im new in rpg maker and im trying to use frog health plugin in my game, i cant find a way to show the health gauges in combat, i tryed many ways and it just dont work, just shows the default pv mp and pt attributes but don’t the ones i’ve put from the plugin
Welcome to the forums AriYZoX!
First thing to check is which engine you’re on, since FROG_Health is an MV plugin and doesn’t work in MZ at all. If you’re on MV, the two settings that control the battle gauges are separate from setting up the health stats themselves, which is easy to miss in a plugin with that many parameters.
The first is Use Health Battle Status, near the bottom of the main parameter list. That has to be true, otherwise the plugin leaves the default battle window alone, which is the HP MP TP you’re seeing. The second is under Battle Config → Battle Status Config → Gauges, where you add an entry for each health stat you want shown, using the same Abbreviation you gave it in Health Config. An empty list there means nothing extra gets drawn even with the first switch on.
Also make sure FROG_Core is installed and sits above FROG_Health in the Plugin Manager, since Health won’t run without it.
Thanks i think it helped but now i have a problem that is not reading property ‘useenemyhpgauge’ and im trying to solve it, im a little to bad at this
No worries, this error is a confusing one. It’s the plugin looking for Use Enemy HP Gauge inside Battle Config and not finding any Battle Config at all.
I’m wondering if FROG_Health can’t find its own settings. It looks them up by its file name, so if the file in your js/plugins folder is named anything other than exactly FROG_Health.js, like FROG_Health (1).js from downloading it twice, it loads with no settings.
Can you check the file name and post a screenshot of your Plugin Manager list? If FROG_Health shows up twice, or under a different name than the file, that could explain it.
That one looks like an Abbreviation mismatch inside the plugin. When FROG_Health sets up each character’s health stats, it saves them under the Abbreviation in all lowercase with spaces trimmed off. The check that runs on every step and at the start of battle then looks them up by the Abbreviation exactly as you typed it. So if an Abbreviation in Health Config has a capital letter or a space in it, like Stamina instead of stamina, that check finds nothing and you get this error.
Can you open Health Config and make sure every Abbreviation is all lowercase with no spaces? Then use that same spelling anywhere else you typed it, like the battle Gauges and the Enemy Gauge List.
After that, test with New Game instead of loading a save. Characters get their health stats when a new game starts, so a save made before you added or renamed a stat won’t have it, and that causes the same error.
If it still shows up, press F8 when the error appears and post a screenshot of the console. It’ll show which line in the plugin it’s coming from.
It worked, really thanks for helping me a lot
