AnimatedBattleBackgrounds.js

A  dynamic battle video plugin for RPG Maker MZ that elevates your battle scenes with animated backgrounds. Transform your battles with seamlessly looping video backdrops that can be automatically selected via map and region notetags, or controlled on-the-fly with plugin commands.

Key Features

• Animated Video Battle Backgrounds:
  Bring your battles to life with looping MP4 or WebM backgrounds (and foregrounds) that create a cinematic and immersive atmosphere.

• Map & Region Notetag Support:
  Easily set a battle video through notetags in your map's note box, for example:
  <videoBattleback: MyMovie, rate:1.5>
  You can also assign region-specific videos (e.g., <videoRegion5: LavaMovie, rate:2.0>) that override the default, allowing your battle backdrops to change based on the player's location.

• Plugin Command Overrides:
  Use simple plugin commands ("Play Battle Video" and "Stop Battle Video") to control the battle video in real time. Override notetag settings for a particular battle or switch to a new video as needed.

• Smooth Transitions:
  A built‑in fade‑in effect (configured via a global parameter) ensures that your video background appears seamlessly without distracting black flashes at battle start.

• Performance Optimization:
  An optional pause-on-window-blur feature automatically pauses the video when the game window loses focus, helping to conserve system resources during extended play sessions.
