RPG maker MV playable for others

[Agument]

So I'm new to RPG maker and did a short game to get familiar with most the functions and how this program work, but now to the problem.


I'm trying to let some of my friends try this game out for feedback but I don't really know how to export it really. Best way would be doing it


through a browser but I have no idéa how to do that.


Otherwise make an .exe file for them do download and start the game but unlike XV ace I can't really find some option to do that.


Any helpful tips?

In the program, click File in the upper corner, click Deployment. Choose either Windows or Mac OS X (whichever they use) and exclude unused files to keep the filesize smaller. Select a location, and it'll automatically create a playable version of your game.

That simple! Thank you very much!

careful with removing files, plugins need to go through some process to be added to the "do not remove list" and not all do that, so before sharing your deployed game make share it works

I managed to fix this for the (few...) plug-ins I use. It's quite simple (the procedure is described in the MV 'Help' files...), and doesn't involve much technical expertise. It's prudent, just the same, to make a back-up copy of your Plug-in before trying this, though.


The Plug-in needs to declare the Resources it requires, and does that through a line in the .js file itself, in the format below...

Spoiler

 *
 * @requiredAssets img/system/FootStep
 * @requiredAssets img/system/FootStepChicken
 * @requiredAssets img/system/WaterSplash
 *   
 * @help  

. It's the Purple lines that need adding, with the Path and File Name corresponding to the Resource required, of course, so your's will be different. I found that a convenient place to add these lines was just above the @help section (in Green...) that most Plug-ins will have.


I can't guarantee that this will do the job for every Plug-in out there, but could be worth trying, at least..?


Subject to completion, correction and/or contradiction from others: hope this helps.
