When you use RMXP on Steam, it only lets you open one window at a time.

Any more results in this error:


Any way this can be fixed? I really need to open more than one at once, and I don't wanna have to buy XP again (I've already used the 30 Day Trial) :unsure:

I do think steam does that to all apps in it.

No, this is why i'm posting. It doesn't do it to VX Ace, which is cool, but I need multiple XP's open, but it won't let me do that. :unsure:

Oddly, VX Ace launches a new instance when you open a rvproj2 file with no issues.

Jackus got me before I posted this.

Yes, but XP comes up with that error when you load a second .rxproj

I'm suspecting a DRM issue. You may have to contact the developers for that.

After you started XP on steam, try right-clicking the program in the taskbar to open another instance - that workaround worked for Ace on Steam in the first versions

That doesnt work either. Same error.

I tried verifying the files and... well...



Let's see if that fixes it :p

Edit: Nope. No dice.

Does anyone else have XP on steam? So I can see if it's just me.

Ah... I haven't used my Steam ace for a while now, last time it doesn't open a new instance too. XD

I tried contacting support, but it needs a Product Key.... I don't have one (Steam) :distrust:

Simply insert Steam as your product key.

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.
time for a new avatar :)
