Overview: I'm editing some events for a creator.

Problem: I can't find the events I'm supposed to edit. They've sent me their map001 data (not the actual map) and the mapsinfo data. The content does show up in the editor, but they're all blank and one dungeon looking map. "Common events" tabs in "database" is empty.

I forgot to mention, I'm new to RPG. I just bought XP just to help out with the editing. I also forgot, I'm editing dialogue and the narrator voice.

Are the events named (If they are on a map)? If they are, you can rightclick and use the find function. Edit: Realized this is XP and not MV, sorry.

There is a separate CommonEvents.rxdata file. If you needed that, sounds like he forgot to send it.

What all files do I need?

it depends on what you are supposed to edit.
For best effects you should have gotten the complete project because everything is connected. But for minor edits partial data can be enough.
But for example if one event gives a sword to the player and you're supposed to change what weapon it gives, then you need the weapon list from the database as well.

Hm, probably should've mentioned this in my post. Well, mostly dialogue and the occasional narrator.

You would also need the System.rxdata file because that contains all your switch and variable names. In fact, just get them to send you their entire data folder. The full project would be much better as without graphics you're going to have a hard time figuring out which event is which.

How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
So I was playing with filters and this looked interesting...

Versus the normal look...

Kind of gives a very different feel. :LZSexcite:
To whom ever person or persons who re-did the DS/DS+ asset packs for MV (as in, they are all 48x48, and not just x2 the pixel scale) .... THANK-YOU!!!!!!!!! XwwwwX
