I'm finally messing around with the movie feature for VX Ace, and I need a little help with the quality. I went ahead and animated a very short sprite animation which will serve as the opening for the game proper after I complete it. However near the end it gets all pixelated and skips once or twice, so before I go and waste hours trying to figure it out I wanted to ask anyone here if they might be able to help me get the right settings for this OGV format to save time a little bit of time. Ill provide a screenshot and a zip of the animation in question down below. As you can see I'm using VLC Media Player. It coverts my mp4 into OGG and all you gotta do is change that extension to OGV to make it readable as a movie. Thanks for reading and giving feedback. ^^ Sonic_Chronicles_Intro_WIP__2.7z

Hello , guys What I want to do is letting the players see the movie or something moving behind the texts I think this is more interesting than a static image , and the movie has a lot of space to be edited, cause it can have editable BGM , and custom animations by using video editing softwares. So I wuold like to ask , is there anyone know something about this effect ? That would be nice if you can give me a link or advice. Thank you very much.

Hey guys. I'm your perfect example of a dumb person getting in over his head trying to impress his future son. I thought it be super cool if my boy can brag at school how his dad made a video game... (Smh). Anyway, hope is not yet lost because you friendly people are here. Now if you're feeling charitable and would like to help this poor, old dad.... then.... "Everything is Awesome... everything is cool when you...." sorry Lego the movie got stuck in my head. Right what is my problem, basically everything. I have no clue what I'm doing but lets start with one thing first. How can I make a movie with RPG maker. I want my character to have this super, horrible, solemn nightmare but I don't know how make it. Could someone please help me. please.... Thank you so much. You are Awesome.... P.S and so is this forum by the way, to the guys and gals who made this forum.... you are awesome. thank you for making a place like this, where people like me can come to ask some help.

When I play my game on a full screen, the movies still come out at a 640 X 480 ratio. How can I fix this? Thanks.

It's me again, Kirbster Superstar! I have some questions because I really want to make my game good! 1. Is it possible to include voice acting and a few platformer moments in your game? I want to make an RPG fan sequel to Sonic 06, but I want to to stay true to the core elements of Sonic games: Speed and platforming 2. Is it possible to use movies in the beginning of your game? I've always had a thing for intros, especially in anime. I don't want to an intro when the game begins and have person dig into the game data to watch the opening intro again. Animated cutscenes is also a must for my game. Does anyone know a converter that supports MP4 to OGV? 3. Can you use different battle themes? 4. How do you use full body sprites for dialogue + with different emotional variations? I hope to have feedback, would be appreciated! (******I AM KEEPING THE BANNER HERE TO USE FOR MY SIGNATURE******)

You ever think back and have that one cartoon you saw when you were a kid and couldn't remember what the heck it was called or maybe anything but a few hazy images or half remembered plot line? I sure have! I saw a heck of a lot of stuff when I was a kid, most of them pretty well established as a part of pop culture. I mean I am sure it isn't hard to remember stuff like Tron, Dr. Who (pre-revival I mean) or Capitan N, even if you can't remember anything about them, you usually can remember what they were and easily are able to look them up and rewatch them anytime you want. And there are probably a number of unremarkable things that you have seen that you have completely forgotten or faded into a generic mishmash because they are so forgettable. But then there are things you have seen that stick with you somehow (even if they are not very good) but have become so buried in popular culture or what I do remember is so hard to explain or search for that a simple google search just doesn't cut it. At worst you wonder if the show is all in your head or you were confused or something. Slowly but surly I have been able to uncover most of the half remembered things from my childhood. Just today I was looking once again for a show I saw about signing robots from the future with hearts on their chest, and low and behold when searching for "80s cartoon robots" in google image search I found this. Could it be? Sure enough I found it. Only it turns out no time travel was involved. I thought the robots came from the future for some reason. Anyway this isn't the first time I found something long lost that was buried in my brain. Last time a half-remembered scene about a dog food can logo with a picture of a dog holding a can (on which was a picture of a dog holding a can, on which was a picture of a dog holding a can, on which was a picture of a dog holding a can... zooming in all the way further and further to infinity) lead me to this. Before that I half remembered a TV show where the villain was a greedy guy who was bulldozing down a forest (and in the opening represented this by him playing a basic pacman like game with a bulldozer as pacman and trees as the dots) and the animals trying to stop him which I found because Jim Sterling (thank god for him) kept using a picture of the villain in his videos (whenever he talks about greedy game corporations... which is a lot). Before that searching for half remembered show about a painter resting under a tree in a forest and given the ability to talk to animals for a time while he worked to save the forest from a villain who was basically made out of thorns who became good and bloomed into a rose in the end lead to this. And finally the start of all this was when I on a whim decided to watch an old anime about a cute widdle unicorn, and was shocked to discover one of the movies he stared in was one I had seen before. I remembered a lot about it to, the creepy evil puppet villain, the way he turned people into flat puppets and made built buildings out of them, how he had this aprentice, how he was powered by hate... But I completely forgot about the hero, I remembered the hero being the apprentice, and remembered him as another toy that came to life and turned good in the end. So there you go. And with that, the only half remembered thing I remember seeing as a kid I can't remember the title of or anything really about was a live action fantasy movie involving a boy with a sword that could cut through metal (and maybe an invisibility cloak) trying to rescue someone from a tower which was enchanted so you starved to death very quickly when inside it, and if you stayed to long there was nothing left but a white cube or pile of dust. Now that Is going to annoy the heck out of me. Oh well. Anyone else remember any half-remembered things from their childhood they saw but can't for the life of them figure out enough about to tell what it was?

Hello everyone, today, I have a theory. Have you ever thought about making a game where you don't need to walk or do anything else? WAIT, don't close this topic already. Well, it's like this, Your character will move automatically, this means that the move route is already set for you so: Sometimes you will be able to choose (using the Choices Menu) where to go first in certain parts of the game. The only thing you have to do is participate of the other parts of the game, like the battles and maybe other minigames. In certain parts of the games you'll also be able to choose what to say during dialogues. Example: Person: "Hi! How are you?" Dialogue Box: What do you want to say? 1. "Hello." 2. "..." 3. "I'm fine, and you?" There would be no problem in choosing which character of the game do you want to be, since all you have to do is participating of the fights and other things.Does this kind of RPG sound like a good idea for you?
