RPG MAKER MV Discussion Thread II

[YEEART]

If MV has an implanted battle camera, I'm set. Buying it on first day release.

Time to spend 1000's of hours making sh*t games, then finally make a good game (for once).

Lets hope they add in a monster editor as well.

Lets hope they add in a monster editor as well.

If not I am sure a nice spriter will be happy to accommodate, and work in layers for character hub\*.psd format.  All it takes is a base really.  They may even be working on portraits too.  You never know.

A monster generator would be cool but I'm at a loss for how it would work.

 

[YEEART]

Like the character generator. Simply use pre-made stuff and place it together, like a puzzle. For example you have a variety arms, legs, bodies etc. Then you know.... stick it together? I'm slightly confused on how to word it, but I pray you get the idea.

Another thing I have in mind is simple terrain usage. Unless I'm really stupid and just can't use them right, but I hope there could be a tab called 'terrains', can you can make X happen on terrain no. X, then the trigger is customizable. Really want to have SE used when walking on snow or something, rather than using loads of events.

I wonder if in the character generator you'll be able to change "species" so you can make monsters and humans all in one I think that will be a good way for the character generator to work

No wonder you're lost. That's because it doesn't. It would not work at all. Ever. You have better chances at finding water in Mars... wait....

The problem with that is that it only works as long as the body has fixed connection parts as a base. Humanoid monster would be easy, and probably can be done with slight modifications on the existing character editors.
All other monsters - sorry, no chance. It would need a much more complex setting/program, and even then there are limits to mixing parts on non-humanoid bodies.

I'm suspicious about Touchfuzzy watching this thread for so long... Come on, man. Just spill the beans already.

 

[Jaymonius]

Though in all seriousness, I don't think a monster generator would be possible, your best bet for something like that would be to use photoshop and make your custom-like monsters like that. That'd be the closes thing to a "generator" you could get.

Another thing I hope they'll continue having is how they made .ogg support like in VX Ace when playing tunes on there. Very useful to have. And speaking of tunes, I really liked VX Ace's stock music, I hope MV's music will be just as badass.

Come on, that could just mean that I have nothing at all to do today because we are doing nothing so I was spending all my spare time reading this thread.

That is OBVIOUSLY what it is.

 

[Seacliff]

This reminds me of a hype train I made months back. Let's update it.

 

[HalcyonDaze]

You know what would be a really awesome pre-order bonus?

Beta access.

 

[Seriel]

You know what would be a really awesome pre-order bonus?

Beta access.

Like Guild Wars 2 all that time ago iirc.

 

[Liak]

Or a Lite version.

 

[BadMinotaur]

All right, I'm pretty hype.

 

[Enderdude]

The more screenshots i see the more i want it   it just looks so amazing!

 

[Chaos Avian]

I can imagine Spriter Pro blowing up in popularity when MV comes out. Especially those who want to use animated monster side view battlers along with the actors and those who wish not to be constrained by the generator graphic style.

 

[YEEART]

Huh, maybe the monster generator was nothing more than wishful thinking. Meh, I'm a simple man and easy to please. The choices the MV will give us will probably be enough, as well as editing the hue.

Now... all I need is something similar to Moghunters battle motion.

I demand too much 

 

[BloodletterQ]

Now that we have inherent sideview and YEEART mentioned it, imagine the possibilities that could arise from Moghunter... I'd assume you'd still need to be good at developing a UI though.

Oh come on. And then you LEFT the thread to divert attention. I'm onto you, man, like a hobo on a cheeseburger.
