+ | == Total Plugins Included == | ||
+ | |||
+ | So with all that said and done, how many plugins are actually included within the [[VisuStella MZ]] Cores? | ||
+ | Let's take a look and tally them up. | ||
+ | |||
+ | * 17 from '''Plugins from YEP's Core Category''' | ||
+ | * 20 from '''Plugins from YEP's Battle Category''' | ||
+ | * 6 from '''Plugins from YEP's Item Category''' | ||
+ | * 3 from '''Plugins from YEP's Skill Category''' | ||
+ | * 1 from '''Plugin from YEP's Equip Category''' | ||
+ | * 2 from '''Plugins from YEP's Status Menu Category''' | ||
+ | * 3 from '''Plugins from YEP's Gameplay Category''' | ||
+ | * 2 from '''Plugins from YEP's Movement Category''' | ||
+ | * 0 from '''Plugins from YEP's Quest Category''' | ||
+ | * 2 from '''Plugins from YEP's Options Menu Category''' | ||
+ | * 12 from '''Plugins from YEP's Eventing Category''' | ||
+ | * 21 from '''Plugins from YEP's Utility Category''' | ||
+ | * 4 from '''Olivia's MV Library''' | ||
+ | * 4 from '''Irina's MV Library''' | ||
+ | * 3 from '''Arisu's MV Library''' | ||
+ | * 2 from '''Aries' MV Library''' | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ''Grand Total:'' 102 plugins | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | With everything tallied up, there are 102 total plugins added and condensed into the 10 [[VisuStella MZ]] Cores. | ||
+ | This is a massive increase from the 40 freebie plugins that were included with the [[Yanfly Engine Plugins]] freebie bundle. | ||
+ | Don't let "10 Free Cores" fool you as there's lots and lots of features packed into them. | ||
+ | |||
+ | What does the incorporation of 100+ free plugins mean? | ||
+ | It means the number of plugins included is well over half the entire size of the [[Yanfly Engine Plugins]] library. | ||
+ | It also means that there is a far, far, far, FAR lower chance of plugin placement errors with the [[VisuStella MZ]] Cores. | ||
+ | Plugin placement errors were an incredibly common user-error found prevalent when using RPG Maker MV. | ||
+ | With 40-ish free plugins to install versus 10-free plugins to install, this user-error likelihood is prevented in addition to other methods that we have implemented. | ||
+ | |||
+ | So when you're thinking of whether or not that I, Yanfly, have scammed you all by giving you only 10 Cores to use with [[VisuStella MZ]] when I gave out 40 Freebie plugins with [[Yanfly Engine Plugins]], just remember that inside these 10 Cores have over a total of 100+ plugins inside of them. | ||
