FF Style Battle UI [MZ]
FF Style Battle UI
This plugin will help you create a more retro-style battle system UI similar to games like FF4, and it is fully customizable! You can change the stat’s format displayed for each actor, including colour, placement, and values, and have it displayed however you want. If you want to show the default sprite gauges, that’s an option too. Simply disable the retro-style stats and enable the co-responding plugin parameters, and away you go. You can even use javascript for most of the plugin’s parameter values to further enhance customization.
Features
- Implement a more retro-style battle user interface for your games, with complete customization available.
- It supports all the default battle system types in the database (turn-based, time progress [active], and time progress [wait]).
- There are over 90 plugin parameter values for you to set, and you can use JavaScript for most of them.
- Choose between numerical values or graphical gauges to display actor status in the battle scene.
- Fully customize the layout and design of all battle scene windows to fit your game’s unique style.

doesn’t work with Visustella Battle Core…
Yeah, it was never meant to work with it. You can view what plugins it is compatible with under the “Compatibility” section on the plugin page.
That’s a big shame! I’d love to use this plugin, but VisuStella’s battle core is so important to making a good game. Is there a way I could make it work somehow in the code?
Could you make the battle log separate from the rest of the plugin? And if you can could you make it compatible with VisuStella?
Thanks for this plugin. It seems to prevent the damage and evade motions. Any clues why?
I tested it in a blank project and did not receive these errors. Are you using any other plugins in your project? It might not be compatible with your project, but you can try disabling plugins 1 by 1 to find out what’s causing this. Alternatively, you can create a blank fresh project, and if the error still persists, then you can zip the project files and upload them to Google Drive and email support with your request, providing the game files so I can take a look.
I just downloaded this and I’m getting an Error when the battle starts.
Hi James,
I cannot reproduce that JavaScript error. Are you using plugins that are not listed under the compatibility section of this plugin page?
It’s possible that you have a plugin compatibility issue.
If you can still produce the same error in a blank fresh project, please email support with a google drive link to the blank project so I can take a closer look into this for you.

“TypeError
Cannot read property ‘split’ of undefined”
this is what happens when I try to use this plugin in a fresh project…
The issue has been successfully resolved. My investigation revealed that the default plugin parameters for battle log settings had not been updated, causing the system to crash. The necessary adjustments have been made to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
Hello,
I am using your FF Style Battle UI [MZ] plugin, but I’ve encountered an issue with the PARTY STATE parameter. When I set the background of the PARTY STATE parameter to 1 (Dim) or 2 (Transparent), the background of the PARTY STATE still remains visible. All other parameters can be adjusted correctly, but only the PARTY STATE background does not behave as expected. I’ve tried this with both version 1.04 and 1.05, and the issue persists. Could this be a bug? (I have also tried disabling all other plugins, but the PARTY STATE background still does not change to the transparent color I have set.) Thank you.
Hi Tony,
Thank you for reporting the issue with the PARTY STATE background in the FF Style Battle UI [MZ] plugin. I’ve identified and fixed the bug, and the latest build should now correctly apply the ‘Dim’ (1) and ‘Transparent’ (2) settings for the Party Status Window Background Type.
You can update to the latest version to resolve the issue (V1.06). If you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to reach out.
Thank you very much for your handling and efficiency. It can indeed become transparent now. Thank you again!
Hello, I discovered today that after updating to version 1.06, there are no issues when starting the game for the first time. However, when I load a saved game and enter a battle, I encounter the error message “can’t read property ‘replaceAll’ of undefined.”
I apologize for asking another question so soon, but this issue did not occur in version 1.04. Thank you.
Thanks for reporting the issue. I’ve done some testing on my end, and I wasn’t able to replicate the error. To help me better understand the issue, could you please provide the following:
This will give me more information to investigate and potentially identify the cause of the issue. I appreciate your patience and cooperation in helping me resolve this.
Currently, I’ve noticed that this error occurs (after loading a game, “can’t read property ‘replaceAll’ of undefined”) when I use the plugin in conjunction with FFbattle_log (ver1.01).
This issue arises even when only these two plugins are enabled together; disabling either one allows the game to run normally.
Regarding the full error log screenshot, including the specific line of code where the error occurs, I’ll need some time to figure out how to display it and provide it to you. Thank you.
I hope this will make the error clearer.
error code
Hi Tony,
Thank you for reporting the issue with the plugin compatibility between DM_FFBattleStyle and DM_FFBattleLog. I’ve been able to replicate the problem and have identified the cause.
I’ve pushed a fix to the DM_FFBattleLog plugin, which should resolve the compatibility issue between the two plugins.
To fix the issue, please download the DM_FFBattleLog plugin again and replace the existing plugin in your project. After updating, please start a new game to ensure the new logic is applied correctly. The old game logic will not be compatible with the updated plugin, so starting a new game is necessary.
Additionally, please double-check the plugin order in your Plugin Manager to ensure that DM_FFBattleLog is in the correct position relative to other plugins. This will help prevent any potential conflicts or issues.
Once you’ve started a new game, you should be able to save and load as normal without any issues.
To expedite future support requests, I recommend signing up to get access to my dedicated support system and submitting a bug report form. This enables me to track and address issues efficiently, often resulting in same-day resolutions.
