Summary
MMORPG Maker MV (or MMOMV) is a project trying to allow both makers and developers to build - with ease - an MMORPG using RPG Maker MV. The project itself consist in a series of plugins on the client-side (the game) as well as a fully modular server. By using NodeJS for the server and RethinkDB - a JSON NoSQL database technology built for real-time interactions - for the database part, the entire project stays truthful to Javascript.

The main value of this project is to allow makers to develop MMORPG without having to write lines of codes and just use RPG Maker MV the way they are used to while allowing developers to improve existing systems through complete documentation and modular code on both client and server-side.

This project is ENTIRELY FREE TO USE, under NO LICENSE (meaning: do whatever you want with it) and is OPEN SOURCE.

IT ALSO WORK ON RPG MAKER MZ​

History
In love with multiplayers games since I am a kid and an RPG Maker user since its early version, the release of RPG Maker MV under HTML5 technology motivated my desires to create a working system to allow both creative and developers to seamlessly build the multiplayer universe they want to. With enough development experience - worked at Google, sold high-tech companies, worked in the army technology field and now at the head of two companies - I have decided that now was the time for me to start building MMOMV. What I am doing here with this project is not only building something but making one of my childhood dream become true and allow you to live it which is why this project is entirely free to use, open source and under no license.

video error ?
EDIT: Good job,
if possible, take a look at the basic functions of Neldeson, as his plugin now supports more of you. Anyway, thank you very much for sharing this wonderful thing with everyone

 

[Kincy]

Amazing! Congratulations on the development, this is the kind of work that every community looks forward to!
The video has a broken URL, but gets the correct link by searching on Youtube.

 

[ledomaine]

Thanks @TenTranVN ! Yeah, I discovered the project of Nelderson yesterday when someone else mentioned it during a private conversation, pretty amazing! I am still going to work on this one as a challenge and fun thing to do on my free time but his work is amazing

Fixed! Thanks a lot for the feedback as well !

 

[TenTranVN]

I think you should update the following so you can pass Nelderson soon
1. Show Name Player
2. Global Variable
- This is the system that can use global variables that are connected to other players
3. Cloud Save
- AutoSave if possible
4. Exchange Plugin
- trading between players
5. Show Icon Menu
- Display icon when another player opens the menu
6. Metrics
- Check out this plugin on nelderson's youtube channel, it can send specific statistics of player variables to the database for easy admin management
=> It would be great if you develop on the neldérson project, I think he's quite friendly, but because he's so busy, he rarely grows. If possible, develop based on his project as an add-on. It would be great

 

[ledomaine]

Thanks a lot for your suggestion @TenTranVN !
But I don't think I will develop on the Nelderson project since I really want to continue working on that for the fun of it and I don't have the time to learn someone else code base in all honesty. It is just a fun project which brings me motivation on my free time

The Cloud Save are already a thing as well as the metrics. The database already take care of all of that, else persistence of position and so on would not be possible. Also, I just updated the code, I improved many parts of the existing code and now you have the possibility to have the names over the players as well as events (and put them as quest). The players stats are saved as well as switches.

I still need to take care of global events (so some switches can be activated for everyone) and then I will continue refactoring the code (especially server side) and add more interactivity between players (trade, fight, ...)

does it work on mobile ?

 

[ledomaine]

The core of RPG Maker MV has not been changed so it works on mobile as well, yes

 

[EseQueL]

How many players can this handle? If I want a lot of players. Do I need to buy a server?

 

[ledomaine]

How many players can this handle? If I want a lot of players. Do I need to buy a server?

The database is based on RethinkDB which is a NoSQL big data database so it can handle massive amount of data as well as requests. The server-client interaction use socket.io which can handle million of concurrent connections.

But yes, you will need to buy a server (cheap VPS will do) if you don't want to host it on your own machine but at that stage, that is more network architecture of your own decision, nothing to do with the plugin itself.

 

[TenTranVN]

I want to use it with mongodb instead of rethinkdb, is it possible ?
I really like this plugin and i think you should create a discord channel, I will assist with reporting bugs and what is needed, or something I can help with.

You would need to rewrite the database.js on the server-side to fit your MongoDB requirements. I have no plans to integrate natively MongoDB in the future because I really dislike it and RethinkDB have much more interesting features fit for online gaming.

Also, a new big update with global switches have been done! I have updated the features list and will soon (probably today) host a demo for people to connect on and try.

Can you create your own discord channel?

I hope you will continue develop this plugin that as a lot of great potential and that can lead this community into new sky we never reach before! Thanks for your support

Thanks, means a lot to me! I just did a - big - update with now the ability to enable account creation, RESTFUL API with JSON Web Tokens, better chat functionalities and so on... I think I almost have finished the entire PvE part which makes me pretty happy.

 

[Sugor]

This is revolutionary if you completed this! I hope

 

[ledomaine]

Thanks! Clearly, I will. I just created a Trello for a better development progress tracking : https://trello.com/b/m4leXuBa/mmorpg-maker-mv-version-1-todo-list . Also don't hesitate at joining the Discord !

@Nelderson also did something like this, tho I do not know if he continued it, also saw an youtuber that did something similar with pvp battles & stuff, I am not saying anything bad, in fact it is fantastic that people still show interest in making online rpgs and even I have dabbled in this with my own .net implementation, the thing is that we need something that should become a standard. Still good work and keep it up!
