[Discussion] RPG Maker

[Adiktuz]

well, I just wanna know who among the people of The Hive is using RPG maker, any version...

I've used XP and VX and currently trying VX ace...

 

[HammerFist132]

Sry for duing this but what is RPG maker?

 

[Adiktuz]

RPG Maker is a line of softwares which allow you to create "old-style" turn-based RPG games...

 

[HammerFist132]

U think like wc3 scenarion or completly unique games. Can u give me links?

 

[I3lackDeath]

Uh, I don't know which version I used, but I got it for no other reason than editing chosen maps from a single game, to avoid having to spend hundreds of hours leveling up in a New Game+.

They kind of ruined this by taking the old versions off the internet, for reasons I will never understand.

 

[Adiktuz]

I think the main reason is to promote the usage of the newer versions, which you of course need to buy from them...

@Hammerfist132 - completely unique, stand-alone game... this is in the game development thread for that reason...

I have RPG Maker XP, but I probably won't finish any games with it.
I'm mostly interested in just scripting/practicing with Ruby to change the boring default scripts.

 

[Statharas]

Tried it. Sucks. True story. Too boring imo.

Ah, the good old RPG Maker 2003. Such a wonderful tool. It's not for everyone, basically it's for storytellers and pixel artists, so it fits pretty well with me.

 

[Adiktuz]

if you're a fan of those old style 2D rpgs like me, its definitely a wonderful tool...

 

[ArkaBlader]

Adiktuz why VX?
Try now VX Ace...

(I'm new to the forums so don't judge me......)
(I'm a PH'er)

^ What? Have you read my post?

I've used XP and VX and currently trying VX ace...

 

[MiniMage]

VX is an abomination. Those frigging huge heads is making your character look retarded.
It's a step down from XP and XP is a step down from the 2003.

Personally, if I were them, I would've given the code function to rpg maker 2003 and called it a day.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

I have VX too. Wonderful tool for me.
Love storytelling and those simple 2D rpg's.

 

[ArkaBlader]

Is this still on?

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Threads never die unless they are locked. So somehow - yes.

 

[Linaze]

Ah, yes, the RPG Maker.
Personally I've only played around with it a few times, but after seeing some of the magnificent games created by others, it seems to be capable of rather great things, despite its rather primitive nature (at first glance, anyway).

My favorite version has to be 2003. VX is probably a better tool overall, but I can't really stand its graphics.

 

[ArkaBlader]

RPG Maker, yes?
Me? I use VX Ace but still I mostly play games made with XP cause the player graphics looks like the Pokemon players in VX and Ace right?

But I preffer to use VX Ace(btw my VX Ace is cracked/I did not pay for it)

 

[andreariona]

I've used VX before, but lost interested and rather play the game that people made from it.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Good way to reveal your pirate ways.

I currently have VX (Ace, specifically) and XP, but I still love XP the most, and used the longest. Far longer than modding WarCraft 3.
