RPG Maker Tile Resizer

v1.0.0


Introduction


Hey everyone!


This is not a plugin but a small JS script that scales all your 32pixel/tile images to 48px/tile scaled versions.


Features


If you use this fantastic plugin: http://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?/topic/46748-change-tile-size/


You can use the 32 pixel tilesets in RPG Maker MV, but the editor needs 48 pixel versions of the tilesets to display them properly.


This small script search all your 32px tilesets and resize them to 48px versions.


You don't need to create the resize manually with GIMP or Photoshop anymore, or commit these larger but same images to your game's version control sofware, which are take up a lot of spaces.


Other resizer scripts require Visual Studio C++ build tools and Windows SDK on windows (8GB), or libvps on Linux.


But I made this script for lightweight, easy to use and to work cross-platform.


Because the script is full of JavaScript the only requirement is Node.js it is little slower than native solutions but works well without any heavy external dependency.


How to use?

  • Download and install the latest Node.js (this contains npm): https://nodejs.org/en/download/

  • Copy the downloaded zip file contents into your RPG Maker MV Game project folder [resizer.js, package.json, .gitignore]

  • Open up a command line and cd into your Game directory

  • Install the required dependencies:

npm install

  • Use this script to resize your tilesets
Code:
node resizer.js

What this script does?

  • This script scales the images by 1.5 percent to create 48px/tile version images from 32px/tile images

  • This script will check only your Game project's [img\tilesets32, img\parallaxes32] folders

  • It will make a resized copy of every image found and move the new images to: [img\tilesets, img\parallaxes]

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 :)
