Coming Soon: Three Revolutionary Plugins for RPG Maker MZ
Hey everyone!
I’m thrilled to announce that three powerful plugins are almost ready to launch — each one built to push RPG Maker MZ beyond its limits.
These plugins are the result of months of work, thousands of lines of code, and a deep passion for creating tools that truly evolve the RPG Maker experience.

Let’s dive in.
ToshA_8DCharacters — 8-Directional Movement & 7-Frame Animation System
What is it?
Forget the classic 4-direction setup. This plugin introduces full 8-direction movement and 7-frame animation cycles, giving your characters smooth and natural motion like never before.
Features
- 8-Directional movement — including diagonal control (↖ ↗ ↙ ↘)
- 7-Frame animations — for walking, running, idle, and attack cycles
- Smart sprite switching — automatic loading of sheets:Hero_8D.png — walkingHero_idle.png — idleHero_run.png — runningHero_attack.png — attacking
- Short-press steps — quick tap = short step with shortened animation
- Pose control — PlayPose / StopPose for cutscenes and dialogue
- Mount system — place the actor on horses, carts, or chairs
- Event comments — <dir:9> or <dir:3 on> to control NPC facing
- Full integration with ToshA_PixelMovementSystem
Why it’s great
Your characters will move naturally and look alive.
No more stiff, grid-based motion — just smooth animations and dynamic angles.
Perfect for action-RPGs, adventures, and cinematic story games.

ToshA_PixelMovementSystem — Complete Pixel Movement Engine
What is it?
The most advanced pixel-movement system ever made for RPG Maker MZ.
It removes the grid entirely and brings physics, collisions, parallax layers, and A navigation — transforming your project into a true 2D engine.

Features
Pixel movement and navigation
- Smooth movement with pixel-level precision
- Full 8-direction support
- Smart wall-sliding during collisions
- Move-to-target commands with script calls
Advanced collision system
- Rectangular and circular colliders with offset support
- PNG Collision Maps:🔴 Red = impassable for all🟢 Green = water level 1 (boats)🔵 Blue = water level 2 (ships)🟡 Yellow = impassable for player only🟣 Purple = impassable for events only
Parallax and layering
- Up to 100+ parallax layers with independent speed
- Static image anchors tied to map coordinates
- Blending modes (normal, additive, multiply, screen)
- Rotation and anchor point control
- Z-index rendering for perfect depth layering
- Animated layers for atmospheric depth
Interaction and events
- Smart events that react to player proximity:dir 48 — face the player within 48pxdir 48 stop — face and stop
- F7 — drag & drop events in-game
- Shift+F7 — reset all event positions
- Right-click — reset single event
- JSON-based event position saving
Developer tools
- F10 — visualize all colliders
- F7 — event dragging and positioning
Why it’s great
This is not just a plugin — it’s a complete game platform.
You get:
You get:
- Full control over movement and physics
- Professional parallax effects
- Built-in developer tools
- Everything in one system — no need for 5–10 extra plugins
ToshA_SRPG — Tactical Turn-Based Battle System
What is it?
Turn RPG Maker MZ into a full-scale tactical RPG engine like Fire Emblem, Final Fantasy Tactics, or XCOM.
This is not just a plugin — it’s a complete strategy framework.

- Battle log window
- AI behaviors:Aggressive mode (chase nearest target)Guard mode (defend area within radius)Smart tile evaluation for best positioning
- Interface:Wide status window with faces and iconsGradient HP/MP/TP barsCompact 3-column parameter table
- 8D integration — characters rotate in 8 directions during actions
- Mission types:Rout — defeat all enemiesSeize — capture the pointDefend — survive N turns
- Terrain bonuses (forest = evade, fort = defense)
- Optional permadeath system
Why it’s great
You get a ready-to-use tactical system straight out of the box.
No need to script complex mechanics — just place units, define AI, and start designing battles.

Why it matters
All three plugins work perfectly together:
- 8D Characters — smooth, realistic animation
- Pixel Movement — freedom and physics
- SRPG System — tactical depth and cinematic battles
Imagine your heroes moving fluidly in eight directions, sliding pixel-perfectly around obstacles, and then engaging in strategic turn-based combat with intelligent AI.
That’s the future of RPG Maker MZ.

orangepaw3, Hi! Thanks for asking.Honestly, I had paused the development of the SRPG System because I thought there wasn’t much interest in it. But seeing your comment made me pleasantly surprised that people actually care.So I’ve decided to resume work on it. In about a week or two I plan to release the first working version — a playable build with the core mechanics (turn phases, movement/attack zones, AI, damage preview, terrain bonuses, and so on).
