Forecast System

RPG Maker MV Forecast System A developer-friendly, modular weather forecasting engine for RPG Maker MV. Define map-specific weather, construct multi-event forecast timelines, and dictate weather transitions from the Plugin Manager. Make your game world come alive with controllable, story-driven weather, rather than chaotic random chance.

What This Plugin Does The Forecast System provides granular control over how your game's weather operates: Map-based forecasts: each map has its own unique weather timeline Up to 15 weather events per map Custom durations for each event Automatic forecasting throughout your map's timeline Developer-customizable weather types (Rain, Storm, Fog, Snow, Custom FX, etc.)

Plugin Manager configuration - no complex eventing necessary Seamless integration with MV's native weather + custom PIXI effects Advanced users can access its API (WeatherManager, Forecast, and WeatherEvent classes) This is a genuine simulation-style weather system, not a simple randomizer.
