Dear RPG Maker VX Ace users,

I'm Josh from Germany, and new to the RPG Maker universe, or game development in general for that matter.

I'm currently working on my first game, which will obviously be non-commercial, and it's intended to be more of an inside-joke title that I'll pass around friends.

I'm slowly getting the hang of how events and conditional branches work, it's still a bumpy ride ahead. ;)

Now, since it's supposed to be a title for friends/family, I'm using videos of me and my friends, too, and I've encountered the following issue:

Whatever video I insert, there always seems to be an additional quarter to half second at the end of each clip. Strangely enough, this added split-second usually sounds like some random audio from within anywhere of the actual clip itself.

My conversion process looks like this:

MPG / AVI / WMV file --> Editing in Windows Live Movie Maker (Version 2011 Build 15.4.3555.0308) --> OGG (Theora + Vorbis) file via VLC player conversion --> Copying OGG and pasting it into my project's movie folder

The video codec pack I'm using:

K-Lite Mega Codec Pack 11.0.0

My guess is that the Windows Live Movie Maker and/or the installed Codec Pack might contribute to that issue, so I'll see if the problem persists when using something else.

But other than that, maybe some of you might have a clue?

Thank you.

Kind regards

Josh

EDIT: Sorry for accidentally adding all the Codec links, wasn't my intention.

  1. It's cute, but you don't have to be so formal. We are strictly cold, unfeeling people. :p
  2. First of all, can you reproduce the issue when you view the video outside RPGVXAce? I don't think that has to do with the engine that much.

The issue must be with the VLC conversion; I don't think WMK would mess you up like that. VLC on the other hand, while handy, can be veeeeery unpredictable. May I suggest using a trial version of Any Video Converter? It works great for me!

Hi!

Thank you for your reply!

2. Nope, the videos play just fine when I view them outside VXAce, no added audio whatsoever.

3. I'll try using a converter other than VLC next time and will let you know if the glitch still persists.

Cheers

Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
