Such hostility. I don't appreciate this kind of behavior, RPG Maker!

Please do not use the status feed as a place to complain about a thread closure, there are methods to report posts if you believe there is a problem that are explained in the forum rules.

Hmm... Why not we just talk about gamedev? Isn't that the main purpose of this forum?

I recommend Affinity Photo for an editing program. It's a one-time payment purchase at a reasonable price for low budget artists - no subscription needed. Plenty of tutorials on YouTube as well.

@Heirukichi It's not much more convenient because you're still limited to constrained text boxes and it doesn't solve the original issue of more convenient dialogue, either. Look at this mess: $game_message.add("Hello")
While in something like Renpy you can just type:
"Hello"
But maybe that's not fair, because afaik in most game engines the dialogue scripting is a mess.

Well I just had to vent lol, I know complaining won't get anything done. I still think a "Find and Replace" feature would be amazing though haha

You can bind multiple script boxes together using proper ruby knowledge and, on top of it, you can use a single string for multiple dialogues (not many are aware of it though). Even so, it is still better to press a button every 26 lines rather than pressing multiple buttons every time.

Thank you, haha. Where did you start learning? And what language? If you don't mind me asking.

i started a course on my city, we first started with C and then switched to Javascript, currently learning Java. And imo, javascript is by far the most fun and easy to learn.

@Amarok I still think Ruby and Perl are cooler than JavaScript. With how it is advancing, I do expect JavaScript will one day be able match those languages for cool syntax structure though.

Sigh, I knew this would happen. Well, I'll respect your request but I just figure for a tiny question I'll use my status update (since I have no other use for status updates). I apologize.

why not use discord for such "small" question?

Because I don't like to use Discord. Simple as that, really. I don't understand why using my status updates for a question bothers anyone. If you don't want to interact with me, then don't. :/ But again, I won't use it for questions anymore since I was asked.

Awesome, thanks for responding! Yeah it must be one of my scripts. I'm glad I didn't make a forum thread for this, lol

Inb4, you will still get the mod warn for posting this.
