Getting Essentials DLC to install ?

[Ancientspark74]

So I bought the Essentials pack and I can't seem to find the characters of tilesets or anything in the program.. 


what step did I miss after steam downloaded it.. what do I do?

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RPG Maker MV\dlc


Thats if youre on windows 7. If youre not on a 32-bit operating system, simply just look under Program Files in your C: drive.

So do I move what I want into my working game folder?  can someone help just walk me through how to use this in my current game?


I.E...  when I go to make a new actor..  all I can see are the given ones even when I try to find a new face pic for it... 


I can't seem to figure out how to get the new content into my game folder so that the actors, icons and all show up.


?  thank you deeply.

Open up MV, open your project, at the top of the engine, click "game", and then "Open Game Folder".


Next, enter the dlc folder and search for the resources you want, and copy them into the proper folders in your project folder.

you never "install" any RM DLC, because they're just resources. You need to copy them into those projects where you want to use them, exactly like described above.


But this is not done automatically for good reason: anything you copy into a project will increase the project's filesize, even if you don't use it.


So if you don't want to use something in the project, don't copy it.
