This is quite a huge leap IMO.

If you don't believe me, open the preorder page on your tablet. Your mind will explode :p
Don't get me wrong, this is a huge leap.

But If I had the chose between what was more revolutionary from adding scripting support to do almost anything you want given you had the scripting knowledge (or know someone who does) or porting to other devices... the first one takes the cake.

I don't know why they always remove something that could be very convenient. From what I saw in the video, battles don't look as customizable as 2003 despite both modes being provided. At least the preorder video shows Harold using a weapon skill where he attacks up close for several hits. My only concern is the lack of a walking animation. At least the movement is fast enough. I'll be switching to PV resources once they're released though so it doesn't exactly concern me in the end.

I'm looking forward to the new HF resources, too. I hope scripts will be created so we can actually use them by then.

I take it we have fog effects this time? Getting fog last in ace was a pointless pita.

Not only that! Looking at a tiny tiny pic in the preorder page, it seems like we will be getting a sort of bare bones "lighting" system!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



What do you think!? If it is, its not as good as Khas Lighting Script, but its still something NEW! :D

@Deathswallow:

This or there will be a lighting plugin included. If it's part of the maker, that would be pretty cool.

Like creating an event and just pick a light effect, the same way you pick a graphic.

Edit: Nice catch btw. We really should take the time to analyze all pictures and videos we can find.

To be honest, I think those trailers/pictures contain things from scripts/plugins, because comparing the side view battle system of that video to the most recent on the pre-order site, they're completely different. Then again, we've haven't actually seen how far we can customize things.

I remember when Dollar used to be so weak that basically buying products with dollar prices instead of euros could give about 40% off.


Saved some euros thanks to buying directly from RPG Maker Web, plus the deal is better as it came with steam key too.


Since they like to utilize Steam's optional DRM that can be applied on EXE files and/or workshop features. Multiple instances are something that is kind of off-limits on Steam version.

Multiple instances of what, RPG Maker? I can run 6 VX Ace simultaneously or more if I want.. With Steam, yes.

Very annoying that they don't allow multiple instances of apps to run in steam.  I can understand that with games, but it would be nice if steam would allow multiple instances for apps, even if on a user selectable basis.

As a general rule I never preorder, but I made an exception for MV. It's not like these guys are Microsoft releasing new versions that are worse than the old (2000, Vista, Windows 8, etc). I will be very surprised if I regret this purchase.

I think you can launch multiple instances if you double-click the .rxproj file rather than trying to open it again in Steam.

Doesn't work that way either for RPG Maker XP.

does anyone know if in MV could i adjust the tempo and pitch separately in the sound options ??? I didnt read the pinned topic in the support forum like a dummy. (I was uber excited). This is one of my most wanted features in a new RPGM.

Unfortunately, the very few people who could answer your question are still under NDA. That's why the pinned thread says you can ask, but don't expect to get an answer :)

And perhaps not as FPS-droppy as Khas Lightning Script. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I see there are some little nice improvements.

Okay, we've established that it's a problem with Steam XP but not Steam Ace.  No way to know yet if it's a problem with Steam MV until it comes out, sadly.

Hayatemaru from the preorder page.

I may have came off a little strong the first time. Please understand.

I strongly believe that Hayatemaru was intended as the 4th female character not the 5th male character. To my knowledge an RTP hero set has never been made with a disproportionate amount of males and females. It has always been 4 of each. Perhaps this is the exception, but I strongly wish for people to consider this as being the truth. Regardless, if Hayatemaru is a male, he is very effeminate, I don't think that can be discarded. And if he is effeminate why wouldn't the intention be for Hayatemaru to be a female? Or perhaps the intention was for it to go either way, male or female? Please consider this, thank you.

Our latest feature is an interview with... me?!

People4_2 (Capelet off and on) added!

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.
