Just Bought a Copy

[The Masked Debator]

Hey, I'm E. I just signed up here, thought i'd say what up. I just bought a copy of RPG maker 2 today online, it's lookin like 2 buisiness days till i get it. I've used RPG maker for about 3 years now, but i only started abusing the engine as of lately. Certain things i've done; well one character in one of the RPG maker games can use Books to Change the dungeon around ya. Like, Dungeon 1-10 You can open a book to make a bridge form, or in dungeon 1-17i think is, you can make a path of ice to walk over the water. I've also gotten a Lead Character Select system, by taking a bit switching advice from one of the other members here. It comes in handy because certain characters are needed to preform different actions in the dungeons, in order to get through it. I love the ideas, i didn't know that you could push the first rpg maker so far, and i look foward to getting to know all of you, and also getting to play the sequel. I have the Prima guide...i don't know why, i just do.

Hello The Masked Debator and Welcome to the Pav!! RPG Maker 2 is a good game. Good luck making a great game on it.

Hello and Welcome.

Maybe my vfx guide will help (link in signature!), but the syncing of objects to movement is very difficult. Try shrinking the head or enlarging the effect to add more overlap and change the degree to which it appears out of sync.

Or just make a full VFX Hood. Here's an old effort I made at doing this...

I tried to put a skull on the death character. To sync it I had to a LOT of resizing and timing changing. It took a few days of trying, but it did eventually work good from most angles (not so good fro mothers).

Good Luck with it.

Peace

Re: Just Bought a Copy

Well, if your looking for a lot of freedom in designing your game and don't mind a little hard work, you've chosen the right RPG Maker.

Don't expect too much out of the Prima guide though.

Re: Just Bought a Copy

Yeah, XD. I looked through the guide for some pointers with RPG Maker 1, and then i realized that it was essentially just a Fu-Ma Guide... At least i know the Character Models and Maps.. I'll be prepared :/. I think Prima needs to hire some better Guide Designers.

If you get a Max Drive, it's worth getting RPGM3 just to play Whispers, the Series games, Daniels Quest, Ursus quest games (when Tree of Life comes out, angels will smile) among others.
I did the same for RPGM2. Playing copies are worth it.

Re: Just Bought a Copy

Yeah. RPGM 2 is a bit of a mouthful, and I'm not sure I'll ever get a game out that really takes advantage of it's capabilities. The summer's comming up though, so I'm hoping I'll have more time to decipher its secrets.
