Starting a new project.
The previous one just got to the point of overcomplicated to fix, especially since I know not what is in error.

So, this new one is going to be less complex, I hope...
(my super-charged creativity makes 'simple' impossible)

I'm extremely late with this, but happy birthday! 😁
I hope it was a great day for you.

I wonder if Minerva and Kotori still stay in touch. They were a pretty active duo back in the day

testing; don't mind that status

I love this community and miss how active it used to be...https://imgur.com/w1pEVGX

Eric! The tester of many games...

I finally got a laptop! But...of course...it can't run any of the RPG Makers. Sigh.

Updates should make things better, right? 🤔
 
GIGABYTE apparently decided to go the other way. AORUS ENGINE (GPU driver of some sort) was working really nice, but then.. There was that Awesome™ update that split its functionality into two pieces of software ~ introducing RGB Fusion for LED management. Of course, I didn't like that right from the beginning ~ I so dislike having to install more software, than necessary. 😓
 
Anyway, that aside, holy balls! Not only it has less options, but it also is almost like a virus of some sort. That Amazing!™ software seem to open command prompt (?) once in a while ~ like once per hour or two. It literally appears for just few milliseconds, so it's hard to tell what it exactly is. The problem is, that this ultra-quick pop-up steals the focus of the window, so if you're working on something, there is that chance, that it will randomly interrupt you for these few milliseconds. And the worst thing is, that if you're playing a game on fullscreen mode, it successfully minimizes the game and throws you to desktop. 
 
At first I was kinda scared, that something is not right with my system in general, but thankfully this is the only software I have installed lately and also thankfully it started doing this immediately, so I knew it had something to do with it, which saved me some hassle. I disabled that software and everything is back to normal. I hope they'll fix this as soon as possible.
 
Seems like everyone loves that new Fantastic™ feature. 😂

Damn, it's cold outside. My room is also cold as a result of the furnace not working properly. it really affects me when I sleep or when I go out of my room...
it doesn't help with creative flow either, but even still, I've managed little bursts of progress here and there.

I now realize the pain of that reboot. I've lost all my templates for RPGM... 
Also GIMP's updated so now I'm super not used to it and everythings weird >.<
 
Templates made me lazy so I forgot all the specific pixels for stuff now so now I need to go relearn that to make more templates.
rip.

A Windows update literally broke my computer... After a very complicated case of trying to access files I had to reboot the entire PC.
 
I rebooted with the "keep files" option, and now my PC is fixed and actually usable, the reboot in fact did not keep my files... I've lost everything, and I had no chance to back them up since the update was mandatory and just happened...
 
It was also a 6 hour update -.-
 
Goodbye game progression~
Goodbye drawings I never got to upload or finish~
Goodbye game saves~
 
I'm very salty right now...............

- Sister buys a cinnamon scented candle melt/freshner.
- Tells her I'm allergic to cinnamon so she can only use it in her bedroom with her door closed.
- Comes home from work, smells cinnamon, sister says "I forgot".
 
So now my throat hurts, It's hard to breathe and my sister just sits casually in her room like "oopsies".
 
This is why I'm not a family person.

My brother got a job not so long ago and the first thing he aims for is a new PC, because his current one is 'meh'.
That would require waiting months though, so I asked him if he'd like me to buy one for him, to which he agreed. I just ordered his PC right now; he'll eventually give me bits back at some point in the future.
With that being said... I assume gaming together will get more intense. 🎉

Uh... I had forgotten all about this place. But, yeah, I'm back-ish. Lots of stuff happened, but let's just say that it's all good things and I'm at a place where I want to be. And I miss messing with RPG Maker.

Actually opened RM and did a little work on Sovereignty today. Determined to push through this last leg and finish this.

One of the things I've noticed with the help file in every RGSS iteration of RPG Maker is that it says that one can make something other than an RPG with it. I'm curious to know if someone has done this, to the letter of something like a racing game or a puzzle game or Hell, a shooter.

Ouh I feel terrible today, I hope the worst is over. I'll better go to bed now.

Yesterday 12 hours at work; today 13... Didn't have time for anything, heh. 
I hope tomorrow will be a better day. 😅
 

So happy with my new profile pic lol. I can't believe I actually managed to draw myself! 

Hello, I would like to move this thread :
the game has finished. THank you and have a nice day sir.

It was fun while it lasted, but it has come clear to me that all efforts to get my computer working once more, and any future efforts, are futile. 
 
I'm therefore, throwing in the towel. 
 
Carry on without me, everyone; may gamedevs be glorious! 
 
And, thank you. It was a blast. 

I'm back.
Internet as down for a few weeks, so sorry for the sudden absence (not that anymore noticed since I only lurk nowadays ;P )

Starting to create some tileset for my village. So far so good. =3

The forum sure changed a lot.... anyone here?
