TACS Launcher
A launcher for RPG Maker VX Ace that sets one up to create professional adventure games via a launcher.exe. It allows for stable fast fullscreen (using zeus81's fullscreen++), a solid mouse system (using shaz's mouse script), playing of movie files via VLC, disabled annoying keys like F1, F12 or anything else that would break it, and even ability to disable using your keyboard as a controller. It is stable and very easy to install.
This is for fullscreen only. Windowed mode for your game using this will be completely disabled. There is the ability to add window mode using the source, but I will not release the source just yet. Documentation is provided within the download that has a short Q&A. You can use this launcher and it's scripts commercially, but you must consult with the original owners of each script used. See the documentation for further information.
Features:
+ High Quality Movies in RPG Maker VX Ace, supporting all popular formats (mp4, mp2, ogv, wmv, avi, flv, mkv, etc...)
+ Fullscreen++ script used in conjunction with Super Simple Mouse script.
+ Disables F1, F12, and Alt+Enter keys.
+ Alt+Tab and Ctrl+Alt+Del minimize game.
Update for 7 25 2015:
+ Fixed Ctrl+Alt+Del. Now minimizes game.
+ Alt+Tab now minimizes game.
+ Launcher.exe forces fullscreen by editing fullscreen++ ini entries. Of course this means that this is now fullscreen only.
+ Cannot run Game.exe without Launcher.exe if LauncherOnly script is active in RPG Maker

That is ok. I know the rest of the Actor 3 Set...
Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
