Hello. I've seen this question asked but I've never seen it answered. Is it possible to use RPG maker to create a textbased game? I would want to build something very similar to the not safe for work games like TiTs or Lilith's Throne. If unfamiliar, you walk around on a map by clicking on buttons that say North South East West. You can get into random battles on the map screen. There are NPCs you can talk to. It has all the familiar elements of a graphical RPG, only it's textbased. If it were possible to use RPG maker as a backend, I think would be pretty easy to achieve this. I'm just not sure if it's possible. Either way, any suggestions on how to make my own textbased RPG?

I don't know if this is the section of the forum to ask this because it's not really a request for help with the software itself? Please correct me if this question goes somewhere else and where that is! I'm trying to make a sprite sheet for an area with a cobblestone-like floor with an A-B pattern but where it doesn't feel trapped in it's tile... if that makes any sense? So Question! I'm trying to draw in all the cobblestone bits one stone at a time plus so copy-paste until I have a full A and B cobblestone tile but I'm worried human error will cause the tiles not to line up correctly? I'm probably making this harder on myself than it has to be? Any suggestions on if there's a more efficient way of doing this or is this just a "Keep at it" situation? Attached is a screencap of what I have so far in my quest at trying to get okayish at environmental assets.

Here is my first post requesting for help, so... sorry for that and hi everyone. I would like to know if there exists or is possible an autosave script for RPG Maker VX (RGSS2). What a mean is, the possibility to save the game using triggers of any kind instead do manual saving (menu > save game). I'm not sure if this is possible, but i would like to find a way that the maker saves the game automacttly without in determinates moments. Thanks in adavance and Regards

I was looking through some old bookmarks I made, and wanted to grab a script written by @Seriel, only to find, 404. What happened? Did ya give up on it or something? If these can be found elsewhere, I'd love to know. Merci beaucoup.

Over on RPGMakerWeb a topic has been created asking what one thing in RPGMaker you'd like to see. Previously over the years to me this would be nothing more than a wish list. However since the community is much larger now and worldwide having a chance to put ideas forward is fantastic. I've posted what thing I'd like and over the years have heard a lot of other people like to see. Have a look and if you do agree with what I'm suggesting then please all you need to do is drop a like to the comment. https://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?threads/what-one-thing-in-rpg-maker-would-you-like-to-see.114599/page-6#post-1012617 Proposals are being written and if there's a large number of our community wanting these things improved then I hope to see our voices heard.

I am looking to make a ceiling tile from tile-set A to be able to walk underneath it (only for one section). I have tried to make an event but cannot with auto tile pieces. I tried using GIMP to make the auto tile separate from the others; however, that failed miserably. I have scoured the forum for this and so far nothing works for what I need. Do I need to write a script for this? I am willing to try that but I am not too familiar with Ruby scripting (not anymore been over 10 years). Most YouTube videos I have found are not for VX but for VX Ace and MV both in which I do not have. Any help with this would be highly appreciated.

I recently remembered an old topic Tsarmina made that was about telling people about some pros and cons of yourself. I've seen some active games recently, but I don't recall seeing one that actually let us "meet" each other. Especially the newer members, so I thought this would help amend that - even if it turns out to be a short topic before Kaz waves her mighty keys and locks the topic :3 (in a friendly way of course~) ===================================== Introduction This topic is to allow us to get to know each other a little better. Each poster will have the chance to answer a question asked by the previous poster, and then give a question of their own for the next person. Rules - No spamming or off topic posts. This keeps teh "game" tidy and on topic. - No offensive or insulting questions. This counts for questions such as "whos better, x or y" since this can cause alot of arguments and trouble. - You can have brief chatter within the topic, as long as you answer/ask a question like stated. Adding an extension to the end of your post is fine such as; answer to previous poster currently asked question (Oh hey, I watched that show too. It was really good!) That is acceptable as long as the topic continues smoothly. - Don't be a question/answer hog! If you answered a question, and then someone after you answer your question, then let some time pass before you answer again. This lets everyone get a chance to respond and lets us get to know more people. If a day has passed and no one has responded, then you may then answer again to keep the topic lively~ - No advertising or anything. Just keep the topic on topic please~ If someone doesn't understand teh topic, then please look over the previous posts to understand. I hope this makes sense xD ================================== What is your favorite gaming genre?

Hello everyone! I wish I had the skills to create my own title screen, but I simply don't have the skills. I'm wanting a title screen set against a black background. Looking for something simple, with the logo at the top of the screen, and in the center of the screen, a yellow chenille letter "C", like what would be on a varsity jacket in the middle of a spotlight, like so: I don't have the adequate software or skills to do this myself, so any help would be appreciated. I hope this isn't too much of an arduous task, so if it is, let me know and I'll try to come up with something simpler. These are my logos I created with the limited experience I have with logo design and Inkscape. I think they turned out not too bad. I like how simple they are, at least. I have included both a black letter transparent logo and a white letter logo set against a black background. You can feel free to use these, or to design a more professional-looking logo based on this design. Thanks to everyone who passed by this topic, and a special thanks if you have interest in helping!

Are there any free tilesets that completely and perfectly replace RTP? By that, I mean that there is a tileset for every RTP tileset and all of the same things are in the same place, but it looks different. I need this so I can replace the tilesets in my game which was made with RTP and all the maps will still make sense.
