Specifications for Charsets? Will we be able to import previous artwork into RPG Maker MV?

[astracat111 4]

Hello there, 

 

I've been working on a 2d character generator in photoshop that works with RPG Maker VX Ace's specifications for charsets. I'm wondering if this will also work in RPG Maker MV the same way? 

 

Here is a sample of the work: 

 

 

It would be extremely disappointing to me if it wasn't able to support this...and I might have to move on to Game Maker instead that would mean...or just release the game for PC only, which would be extremely disappointing, the way the gaming market is today.

 

Also, I had to make a plugin to run VLC movies in RPG Maker VX Ace, and I'm wondering whether or not I would have to implement that within RPG Maker MV...although I'd assume it's just better to stick with low resolution movies at that point (running it on phones and the like).

 

Thanks ahead of time for any answers you can give. I am kind of excited for RPG Maker MV, but I'm on the fence about whether or not to get it at this point because of this. : /

I haven't been able to get a firm answer for this, either. It's been implied that we can use various sizes as in the past, but then there's been conflicting responses implying we cannot. At this point, it may be best to wait and see, but then you'd miss out on the pre-order bonuses.

Not exactly an answer to your question but there is a larger sprited character (looks like 3 tiles wide an 3 tiles tall) in the trailer at 0:31 the likes of which are reminiscent of the larger monster sprites in VX and VXAce. Again, this isn't a definitive answer but it certainly lends itself well to the idea that it is possible.
