Using the VX Ace engine in your XP games - the kiss tutorial!

I am sorry for the downtime of the site; I was forced to wipe the server completely due to a.. slightly urgent matter, and didn't get around to restoring it from backups yet as I've been extremely busy the last couple weeks.

Here's a mirror for the kit: http://cdn.tikky.tk/XP%20Ace%20Upgrade%20Kit%20(en).zip

Thank you so much!

Excuse me, but does anyone know/remember what was/were the solution/s for when you have this "RMXP 1.05", and it overwrites the RGSS3 dll? I just upgraded my RPG Maker version (because of random issues), and I would like to know if I can continue using this one, or reinstall/return to my old reliable previous version.

Thanks in advance.

PS.: If only http://aluxes-loves-eric.tk/ was still online... :'C.

EDIT: Nevermind, I did a kind of simple solution. I have the RGSS3 DLL at the program's folder, side by side with the other DLL. Then I made two batch files, which just rename each DLL properly, depending on my needs (I called one of them enRGSS3er.bat, and the other one is deRGSS3er.bat, you can guess that one "installs" RGSS3 and the other "uninstalls" it xD).

Thing is, the program crashes if the original RGSS104E.dll is not there. Hence the need to "uninstall" it.

Does anyone still have a copy of the zip file that they can upload?

I have question: Is this even legal? I mean, assuming I own both XP and Ace licenses. Can I sell games made this way? Frankly the only thing keeping me back from returning to XP is an event lagfest XP is.

Apparently, that link isn't working either.

I know this is a long-dead (kind-of) topic, but I wanted to make sure everyone knows that this project is still alive and well. After Terv disappeared from one of the other forums this was posted on, some of us took it upon ourselves to continue the project. There's a full site dedicated to it (which shouldn't be going down anytime soon!), and in addition to the site, I'm working on the tracker too; I found a mirror of the old one, and will be sifting through the spam-infested topics to pull whatever useful data I can. The site is located at http://rmxpace.com; finally, there's also some good news to add to the end! We're releasing version 1.5 of XPAce tonight, with a bunch of bug fixes, some code compressions, and a standard tilemap rewrite, specifically designed for XPAce. Any questions, comments, etc. can be submitted through the site I linked, and, though here, or on the topic at Chaos Project

Thanks for listening/reading!

Sadly, the RPG Maker XP 1.05 replaces the DLL and overwrites the INI every single time you save the game, which is pretty bad for this. As stated in the post at Chaos Project:

Note to v1.05 (Steam version) users: People reported having issues with the above after saving changes to their game where the DLL file is replaced with original RGSS104.dll file. You will currently need to replace the DLL file every time.

I treasure my older RMXP version because of that, and also because Steam is just slow to open. Gotta gammak fast! Sonic says. Still, it's doable with 1.05 even if it's bothersome to be replacing DLLs every single time you need to save.

===

There is another solution (just something I tried at one time and actually works), which is replacing the DLL from the editor's files after opening the editor (it checks the DLL every time it opens so you need to put it back before reopening it SO DON'T LOSE THE ORIGINAL RGSS105E.DLL). Still cumbersome but at least if you're like me and like having the program open for 20+ hours, suspend your PC, them continue next day and so on for like a full week, it's not a big deal. Just keep the original DLL in a safe place. xD
