Read the manual.

Re: Noob questions

By "set up towns" do you mean place events? It's layout. Thats how you place all events.

As for making characters attack, only characters in the front can attack. They do it by hitting the button labeled "Attack."

Re: Noob questions

Read the manual.

i dont have it, i got the game from Gamefly, all i got was CD


EDIT- I got placing events down, put how do i make Merchants and Shops and Questgivers and stuff.

Re: Noob questions

Merchants: Try to avoid them, as the game will let players spend money they don't have (much like a credit card.)

Shops: Simply layout/events/building/shop.

Questgiver: There is no formal "quest" program in RPGM3, so it's simply any event that displays the message and changes the variable(s).

Re: Answers to basic RPGM3 questions.

Hey, is their any way to make a charator actually move out of the room? How do event transitions work? What is an internal variable?

[hitogoroshi]

Re: Answers to basic RPGM3 questions.

Well, first off, to make a player character move out of a room, use Control/Movement. The only way to make an NPC move out is to use a duplicate character.

Event Transistions are used to have an event automatically begin while in the code of a different event. Generally used if there are multiple paths to the same event (i,e: If opening any one of four doors leads you to the same battle, an event transistion would make it so opening any door would bring you to the same event.)

An internal variable is like a shared variable, but made in relation to a character.place for conveince.

This is for libra in red




You first go to WORLD the first thing on the editor. (top left hand corner) and go to towns. Set the temp and weather and stuff. Then go out and go back to WORLD and click layout go to your town click on the desired place for the builing or whatever and press X.

Re: Noob questions

First, read the list to learn what a variable is. Then, just know that internal is associated with a character or place so that you don't use the same variable twice (i,e: When you want an event relating to a character, you know that the characters 16 Variables are unused until you use them. This is better then just starting a notebook to record which of the 60 shared variables you've used.

What is an NPC?

[hitogoroshi]

Re: Answers to basic RPGM3 questions.

Non-player Character. That is, every character the player doesn't get to use.

Re: Answers to basic RPGM3 questions.

Yeah...I guess that needed to be posted in this thread, as there are no other threads on this forum telling someone what an NPC is....
